The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain Emerald Crest
Andrew stood outside the store, preparing to head home, when Hannah rushed out to meet him, seeking to apologize for her previous behavior."Andrew, wait up!" Hannah called out.Andrew wasn't in the mood, knowing that Hannah would bombard him with numerous questions."I'm sorry for how rudely I behaved earlier. Please disregard my attitude," Hannah earnestly attempted to clarify herself."It's alright, there's no need to apologize. You didn't say anything wrong. However, I must be on my way now. I have other things to attend to," Andrew finally interjected, wanting to distance himself from Hannah, especially considering she had a boyfriend.Hannah couldn't quite comprehend why he was avoiding her. "That's alright. I'll give you a call later," she said with a smile, waving him goodbye.Andrew was taken aback since he hadn't given Hannah his number, yet she confidently asserted that she would call him. Nevertheless, he didn't dwell on it, attributing it to her own reasoning."She probab

"Forty million," Andrew muttered to himself, he knew that he couldn't win the bid with that amount. "That's a good start, but I can go much higher." Andrew tapped the amount section and impulsively placed a bid of $60 million without much consideration. "There, that should do it. Over $60 million transferred and ready to secure the Emerald Crest," he said quietly, his face filled with determination. Meanwhile, Damian still bid the official amount, Damian thought to himself. "That loser just seems to be bragging he can never afford even 40 million dollars, so there is no need for me to waste my time in placing a higher bet. This property is mine," Damian smiled as he looked at Andrew. Just then, Evelyn emerged from her office and announced, "The bidding has been placed, and we officially have a winner." Damian eagerly anticipated hearing his own name, but to his astonishment, the outcome was quite the opposite. "Mr. Andrew Everest, you have won the bid. Congratulations and yo
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain Always Crossing Paths
Andrew waved his hands to bid them farewell, but his gestures were indirectly insults. The girls remained outside, confronting the security guards."Do you even know who my boyfriend is? He lives here, and if he finds out you treated me this way, I assure you, your jobs will be on the line. Are you seriously telling me I can't enter?" Melanie, the owner of the Lamborghini, exclaimed angrily."We follow the rules, and if you truly are who you claim to be, why don't you call him over, ma'am? This is a peaceful neighborhood. Instead of getting worked up, let's have a civil conversation," one of guard advised, trying to diffuse the tension."Melanie, just give him a call," Trisha, her friend, urged, giving her a reassuring pat on the back.Melanie let out a frustrated sigh. She dialed her boyfriend's number, hoping for a resolution."Hey, honey, I've been here for a while, and they won't let me in," she sobbed into the phone."Who the heck refused to let you in? I'm coming, just wait for
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain I Can't Believe He Is Rich!
Andrew inflicted enough pain on Lex that he would think twice before attempting such actions again. With a firm grip on Lex, Andrew finally released him, allowing him to angrily swing open his car door and step out.Lex wanted to confront Andrew for his actions, but the presence of his girlfriend deterred him. He couldn't bear the thought of Andrew humiliating him in front of her, so he swallowed his anger and chose to remain use a different manner of approach.Face-to-face, he decided to insult him at least this would compensate for the pain he just received "You're nothing but a poor thief! Don't come here boasting about your apartment when you're just a good-for-nothing show-off!" he spat, aiming for Andrew's chest. However, Andrew merely smirked and skillfully dodged Lex's attempt to strike him."Hahaha! Look who's talking. Can't keep your composure, can you?" Andrew retorted, laughing at Lex's futile outburst.*Grrrrrrh!*Just then, Andrew's phone began to ring, vibrating in his
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain Did I Make A Wrong Decision?
It was the beginning of a new week, precisely Monday, marking the start of the workweek. Andrew was determined that this would be the week he would seize full control as the CEO of Stellarite Resources. It was hard to fathom that at such a young age, barely in his twenties, he was about to assume such a prestigious role.This achievement would undoubtedly be one of his greatest accomplishments, especially considering he was now a billionaire in his own right. Andrew had been granted a semester suspension, providing him with the freedom to do as he pleased during this period, and he was determined to utilize it wisely.Rising from his spacious king-sized bed, Andrew stretched his limbs. It had been quite some time since he had enjoyed such a restful night's sleep, and he felt remarkably rejuvenated, as if he were capable of anything."I need to hurry!" he exclaimed, quickly getting out of bed and rushing to the bathroom to freshen up. Andrew was well-prepared, opting for a casual outfi
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain Taking Charge
Andrew finally reached the top floor of the building and spotted the secretary, who had been described as a lunatic by the receptionist, sitting at the corner just before the office of the head manager.Approaching her politely, Andrew said, "Excuse me, ma'am. I'm here as a shareholder of this company, and I would like to discuss an important matter with the manager. Could you please inform him?"Skeptically eyeing Andrew, the secretary replied "A shareholder, huh? How can a young college kid like you claim to be one? Do you even understand the value of a single share?" She leisurely scanned Andrew from head to toe, asserting her doubt.Andrew tried to clarify himself once more, saying, "I assure you, it would be in your best interest to relay my message to your boss."Interrupting him, the secretary retorted, "Or what? You'll resort to violence? Kid, if you know what's good for you, get out of here. This isn't a place for college kids to play around. Who even allowed you into this bu
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain The Loved CEO
Andrew chuckled as they struggled to regain their footing. Eventually, Mr. Blackwood managed to stand and approached Meredith, delivering a resounding slap across her face.*Paaaah!*Stunned and in pain, Meredith held her cheek, bewildered by the sudden turn of events. "Sir, what have I done wrong?" she asked as felt the immense pain from the slap."You're to blame. You tried to hinder our CEO, causing him to wait outside," Mr. Blackwood explained, then turned to Andrew, bowing down. "I apologize for this, sir."Meredith, now understanding the situation, was equally shocked. "Brat! What are you all doing here?" Mr. Blackwood shouted at the others, who rushed over to Andrew and bowed down. "We are sorry for our previous actions, sir.""You should be apologizing to them, not me," Andrew remarked, pointing towards the protesting crowd outside. He then proceeded to sit at the desk, crossing his legs."I want you to fetch me the financial ledgers from one week ago," Andrew instructed, gest
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain Stellarite Gem Stone
It was almost midnight as Andrew was still in the office, examining the company's financial ledgers, analyzing the profits and losses incurred over the previous years."Hmmm... Besides the mismanagement, it appears that the sales of Prime Stone have significantly declined. It seems the mining sites we currently have are no longer valuable," Andrew murmured, his gaze fixed on the map laid out on his desk.Stellarite Resources, a mining company specializing in rare orbs, had suffered due to the previous owner's poor decision-making when acquiring mining locations. Initially, they had struck gold with Prime Stone, a highly sought-after gem with properties comparable to diamonds. However, as the market became saturated with Prime Stone, sales plummeted, rendering it unprofitable for the company."I believe it's time to diversify. Dad, you mentioned a rare stone that could revolutionize our business," Andrew said aloud as a holographic projection of his father materialized before him."Yes

Escape From Death
Leon grunted under Andrew’s weight as he hoisted him higher over his shoulder. His body was limp but heavy, like hauling a furnace."Frederick, MOVE!" Leon barked, sprinting through the blasted terrain.The ground was littered with the dead— remains of Pale Division operatives burned to ash or torn apart.Smoke burned Leon’s throat with every breath. Frederick stumbled, dragging Hannah's limp body of the ground. Her hair dragged in the dirt, her clothes torn and soaked in .Taylor’s urgently spoke, "Seismic readings are spiking again! You have two minutes, tops! If you're not out of that blast radius, you’re dead!"Leon cursed under his breath.The jeeps were still a hundred meters away."Go!" Leon snarled, forcing his body to move faster, muscles screaming in protest.Frederick gritted his teeth and forced his battered legs into a sprint, Hannah slung over his back like a rag doll.Gunfire echoed behind them—as they ran."Shit! Some are still alive" Frederick hissed as he turned bac

But she didn’t stop. Not when the world was collapsing around her.Leon and Frederick fought like devils, but the more of their men where holding heavy with plasma guns, with the cry of sonic beams shattering rocks around.Two operatives with skin like molten silver flanked Frederick, striking with inhuman speed.Frederick blocked one blow but was caught by the second as he was punched in the stomach as he was sent sprawling into the dirt, coughing blood.Leon shot one in the head—only for his body to keep moving for two more steps before it finally collapsed.Frederick rolled under a stream of blue fire, flanking and snapping the arm of the fire wielder with a vicious elbow strike — only to be blasted back by psychic force.Taylor shouted from the comms: "EMP pulses offline! They're using hybrid tech—supernatural and engineered!"Another squad broke through, energy whips was being manipulated from their gauntlets.Hannah skidded to her knees beside Andrew, trying to lift him.Command
Chapter Mistake
Please accept my apologies for the two new chapters titled 'AshBlood.' That was a mistake due to a network glitch. I'm sorry.
AshBlood Call
Andrew’s hands curled into fists at his sides, nails biting into his palms. The hum of machinery in the medbay felt a thousand miles away, distant and irrelevant against the roaring in his ears.Taylor shifted awkwardly, clearly sensing the crack in Andrew’s usually unshakable composure. Dr. Yuen lowered his eyes back to the monitor, his jaw clenched tight.Andrew swallowed hard. His voice, when it came, was rough with strain.“What do we do?”Yuen hesitated. “I… I don’t know yet. This isn’t something I’ve ever seen. I can keep stabilizing her physically, but the genetic evolution is... accelerating.”Andrew turned sharply toward the small observation window where Hannah lay resting.Pale. Fragile. Unaware of the war raging inside her blood.The child inside her — their child — was feeding on the Ashblood awakening.Growing stronger. Faster.Too fast.If they didn’t find a way to control it…Andrew clenched his jaw. "No. I won't let that happen." *********At the dining table, Andrew

AshBlood
In Iceland, deep within the frozen North, the Vatnajökull glacier cracked apart like a shattered mirror. Great jagged faults split the ice, The sky above churned, thick clouds swirling in unnatural patterns, forming a spiral no meteorologist could explain.Thousands of miles away in India, monsoon rains poured from a clear blue sky, flooding villages not in July, but in early spring.And in Chile, at the base of the old volcanoes near Atacama, molten cracks spiderwebbed across parched ground. The mountains growled, as if waking from millennia of sleep.In each place, small groups gathered. Hidden sects. The descendants of those who had always known this day would come.They knelt on stone floors or in ice caves, chanting in languages the modern world had forgotten. Their words filled the air like smoke, thick with reverence and terror alike.One word repeated across continents, whispered by many mouths:"Ashblood..."The Return of the Ashblood had begun.Inside the the safe house in S
World Transformation
The television buzzed softly in the dimly lit room, as Hannah’s was resting on the med bed, thin blankets pulled around her, one hand absentmindedly resting on her stomach. Her other hand held the small remote loosely. Her body still weak, but her mind sharp.The news anchor’s voice could be heard,“We warn our viewers, what you are about to see contains graphic imagery. Viewer discretion is advised.” The broadcast switched to shaky, handheld footage.Smoke.Screams.The camera jerked wildly as someone sprinted across a downtown street — others running behind him, scattering like ants."They're burning alive!" a woman shrieked off-camera.The footage cut to a clearer angle. A man stood in the middle of a parking lot, convulsing violently. His body shimmered as if his skin couldn't contain him.Then —with a horrible, wet pop — flames erupted from his chest, swallowing him and the nearby cars.He staggered backward, mouth open in a silent scream as his body burned from within."Help me!
The Baby's Not Human
Hannah stood just a few feet away from Andrew, wearing a dark hoodie and loose pants, her hair pulled back. Her face was pale, framed by exhaustion and the remnants of too many sleepless nights.She had purposely walked back and forth past the metal bench where Andrew was sitting, but he didn’t acknowledge her.After what seemed like the fifth pass, she was fed up with his silence and walked up to him.“You’ve been sitting out here since morning.”“Where else should I be?" Andrew said quietly.She exhaled, arms tightening across her chest. “You could’ve come to me.”His voice cracked. “I didn’t think I had the right.”She blinked. The silence stretched long between them. Then she stepped forward and sat beside him.“I hated you,” she admitted. “Not for leaving. For letting me believe you stopped caring.”“I never stopped.”Her head turned slightly toward him. “You were protecting me. Even when you were gone. Weren’t you?”Andrew nodded once. “I didn’t know what they’d do. I just knew
