Andrew’s eyes burned with rage as he glared at the assassin, who was now bound securely to a sturdy chair in the dimly lit basement.

“Where is Hannah?” he demanded, his voice a low growl.

The assassin, still groggy from the cold water Andrew had thrown on him, met Andrew’s gaze with a defiant sneer. “I told you, I don’t know,” he spat, though his bravado was starting to wane.

Andrew's patience was wearing thin. He picked up a pair of pliers from a nearby table, holding them up so the assassin could see. “You will talk,” he said with chilling calmness, “or you will suffer.”

The next hour was filled with the sounds of muffled screams and the sharp crack of bones. Despite the pain, the assassin maintained his silence. Blood dripped from his fingers where Andrew had worked with the pliers, but still, he gave nothing away.

Frustrated, Andrew leaned back, wiping sweat from his forehead. “You’re tough,” he admitted grudgingly. “But everyone breaks eventually. And you will break.”

As he gazed at her, he couldn't help but imagine the trauma she must have endured in the hands of her kidnappers. Suddenly, Hannah jolted awake, still aware of her surroundings, and realized they had already arrived at her house. However, she expressed her reluctance to stay there."No... No! I'm not going to stay there... Please take me to your house. I don't want to sleep alone. What if they come back for me?"

    Hannah was taken aback when she heard the knock on the door and realized it was Elsa, her friend. She didn't know what to do because if Andrew were to open the door and deny her presence, it would indirectly imply that he was responsible for any harm that might have befallen her. Hannah didn't want to cause Andrew any trouble since he had already helped her a lot. As Andrew approached the door, Hannah rushed forward, whispering urgently, "Andrew... Nooo! Don't answer it... I'll get the door myself!" She waved her hands, signaling for him to step back. Andrew tilted his head and raised his hands, silently questioning her. Despite his confusion, he decided to comply with Hannah's request, having learned his lesson from previous encounters. Hannah quickly hurried to the door and opened it halfway. Standing before her was Elsa, a girl with blonde hair, wearing a crop top and skinny jeans—someone she was intentionally avoiding. "Elsa... Hi... What brings you here so early in the morning

    Andrew looked up from his plate, a mischievous glint in his eyes as he sliced through the succulent roasted chicken. "You know, Elsa," he began nonchalantly, his voice carrying a subtle edge, "I still remember that day at the shopping mall. You were so quick to ridicule me, mocking my supposed lack of wealth. Does that ring a bell?" Elsa's face flushed, her eyes narrowing with discomfort. "That was ages ago," she snapped, clearly uneasy with the sudden shift in conversation. "Why bring it up now?" Andrew paused, his knife sliding effortlessly through the tender meat. "Because it's relevant," he smoothly replied. "You see, Elsa, back then you made assumptions about me, much like you're doing now. You think you know everything, but you don't." Elsa's jaw clenched, her knuckles turning white as she gripped the table's edge. "And what exactly are you implying, Andrew? That you're some sort of saint? That you never make mistakes?" "No," Andrew responded, his tone was cal

    Andrew was furious, and he was determined to show Everest that he was not some kind of pushover. "They think they can kill me? I'll show them they can't mess with fire." Andrew was extremely furious as he grabbed the assassin by the neck and snapped it. Never had Andrew imagined he could be so cold-blooded. But due to the challenges of life, he was no longer the easy target he used to be. Now that he had enough power, he was determined to use it wisely. That didn't mean he would use his power for evil.A few moments later, Andrew had cleaned up his garage and disposed of the body. He wasn't afraid of the aftermath of what he had done because the officials were already very corrupt, and the assassin he killed was already a wanted criminal. He was already a walking dead man, his name sounding like a ghost.**********Andrew was now parked in front of The Everest mansion in his car. The front gate of the Everest building was about to close when another car entered. Andrew swiftly drove

    Andrew stood before his uncle, pointing a pistol directly at his face. His expression was filled with anger as he glared at him, contemplating whether to pull the trigger. However, he found himself surrounded, with other guns aimed at him.The Everest family was known for their influence in the criminal underworld, involved in illegal activities and gang operations. They were like a secretive mafia, but their true nature remained hidden from those outside their inner circle.

It was a way of showing them that he was not the insignificant person they had discarded.Andrew didn't want to involve the police or file a report about the attempt on his life. He told Hannah, who had witnessed his bravery and trusted him, not to tell anyone or contact the authorities. She believed in his abilities and chose not to involve the police.Andrew decided to handle things his own way, openly declar

    Andrew drove away from the Everest Mansion after issuing a stern warning.

    Immediately after Andrew called out the sum of ten million dollars, all eyes turned to him. "Who is that kid? How can he have so much? He didn't even hesitate to raise the bid from one million to ten million dollars," a man contemplated, exchanging a surprised glance with his equally astonished friend. "Ten million dollars! going once, going twice..." the auctioneer paused, scanning the room. "Thirty million dollars!" Another man raised his bidding tag in the air, giving a smug smile directed at Andrew, who was seated directly opposite him on the right-hand side of the room. The bidder was none other than Frederick Louis, a young man in his mid-twenties, representing the Louis Empire. The Louis Empire was renowned for its expertise in mining precious stones, and it was a multi-billion-dollar company. Frederick was determined to win the bid, as he had been instructed by his father to give his best. "Thirty million dollars! Thirty million dollars going!" The auctioneer proclai

In the audience, one person whispered to their companion, "His name is Everest. Could he be from the Everest Empire? But I have never heard of him." They pondered the situation, unable to comprehend what was unfolding before their eyes. Andrew finally approached Hannah, who remained in a state of shock. She couldn't fathom how the person she had perceived as poor and shy person just a month ago, had transformed into a handsome, confident, and dominant young man. It felt like a surreal dream to her, and she found herself inexplicably drawn to Andrew's unique charm. "Is this really him, or is it someone else?" she wondered, feeling a warmth and a blush as he approached her. Andrew was slightly taken aback as he noticed her smiling at him. He walked over to where she was sitting and immediately extended his arm, surprisin

  • 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

    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!

    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
