The Midnight Heir DEMON
The taxi driver drove Anthony to the alley of a deserted street where he parked, turned off the engine, and faced Anthony at the back."We're here son in law. Before I forget, in case you want to try something stupid and call someone for help, you should already know by now that I'm not going to let that happen" The driver said then reached for Anthony's pockets.He dabbed all of Anthony's pants pockets until he felt Anthony's phone and grinned wickedly."Let's just get rid of this before it causes problems," the driver said then pulled out the phone."Don't touch that—" Anthony said tiredly as he grabbed the driver's wrist and was struggling with him. Unfortunately, his strength right now isn't what it used to be."Gimme that!" The driver said furiously then forced his hand from Anthony's grip.The driver assessed the phone and what condition it was in and then he said "Nice looking phone. No use destroying it when I can sell it for some cash"The driver stuffed the phone into his po
The Midnight Heir INCREASED STRENGTH
The wind blew through the alley and every hair on Anthony's body stood. He had a chilling sensation all over his body as he felt the breeze run through every single strand of hair on the exposed parts of his body.It was a very strange sensation he was feeling. His entire skin felt sensitive to any stimuli."What was that—" Anthony asked himself then looked down at his hands and paused then said, "What is this?"His eyes widened in shock at what he was seeing.He swayed his hands around while flailing his fingers and he could see the air around his hands being moved by the motions he was making."What am I seeing? Why am I— What is this? This looks… bizarre" Anthony mumbled in disbelief.Just then, he heard one of the guy's teeth clanking rapidly which pulled his attention toward him.This particular guy was the closest to any of the cars and when Anthony looked at him, he could see the heat radiating from the engine in a reddish color.Anthony stopped looking at any of the guys and f
The Midnight Heir ON THE OFFENSIVE
"Hey Vinny, what's this rumor I'm hearing that has to do with The Overseer? What do you think it could be all about?" One of Vinny's gang members asked as they were walking and smoking on the road."What makes you think I would have any ideas? Knowing anything the Overseer does is way above my pay grade" Vinny answered.The gang member who asked the question smacked his tongue in disappointment and then mumbled "You don't ever know anything important that's going on in the Mob. So much for a leader"All the other members of the gang gasped as they hurriedly looked at this member."What?" The members asked before looking at an angry Vinny and realizing he had said what he just did out and Vinny had heard him being disrespectful."Oh shit!" The member covered his mouth and Vinny started walking up to him "Vinny, you know I didn't mean what I just said right? It was a slip of the tongue—""No, repeat what you just said to my face. Don't be a wuss about it and say it with your chest" Vinn
The Midnight Heir HEARING RANGE
Pulling Frank through the broken car window delivered many cuts on his body, especially his face and arms. Anthony also sustained a few cuts too but at the moment he couldn't feel any pain.Once he threw him, Frank didn't just hit the ground but he bounced and rolled a couple of times before skidding and stopping after hitting the pile of unconscious bodies which were his friends.Anthony raised his hands to his face and looked at them with amazement."It wasn't my intention to throw him that hard but look how far he went. This strength reminds me of Satyre's but not completely. With this power I could maybe surpass her" he said then grinned as he was filled up with adrenaline.Only a couple of hours ago and he was depressed about not having enough strength to protect those he cared about which was mainly Annabelle and now he has this much power coursing through his veins.The only question is, where did it come from, and why he of all people? Anthony was too enthralled in what was go
The Midnight Heir CHOOSE
Fortunately, it was a white almost silver-furred street cat that had been sleeping at the time but his fight had woken it up.Anthony watched the cat jump off the edge of the dumpster to the ground and then strolled towards him until it got there and rubbed its body against his leg.The cat circled his leg a few times before it looked up at him and purled.Anthony looked down at the cat and its blue eyes which reflected the sun, matching how his looked right now and it put a smile on his face."Looks like I woke you, sorry" Anthony apologized to the cat then went on one knee to pet its whiskers.The cat, although being a street cat, accepted Anthony and while he was still petting it, the cat looked in Frank's direction then it hissed with all of its hair standing up.The cat took Anthony's attention to Frank who was trying to get up and escape faster than crawling was allowing him."I almost forgot about you," he said then frowned.Anthony snapped his finger at the cat which got it to
The Midnight Heir SIM CARD SWAP
“Wait, you can’t be serious!” Frank said in a panic as he tucked his knees and held them.“You have one minute to decide or else I’ll decide for you,” Anthony said then walked away.In Frank’s head, Anthony could have just done what he wanted to do to him right there and then but he felt Anthony was messing with him.It was like he wanted him to be in misery and suffer for a whole minute before he comes back because to Frank that minute would seem like an eternity.The fear of the pain of two shattered knees, the uncertainty if Anthony is going to keep his word to help his daughter or not, the worry if his legs are ever going to be the same way after Anthony is done with him, all these things went through Frank's mind.During the last ten seconds, Anthony came back from checking all the other things he could see with his glowing eyes. He found out that not only sound and temperature but he could also see most forms of energy.He could see the electricity flowing through the cables abo
The Midnight Heir ANY AMOUNT
Frank grimaced, wondering who this Mr. Dana person Anthony was calling could be. Only one man’s full name and face came to his mind as Anthony spoke but it couldn’t be that Mr. Rose Dana now could it? Frank wondered. Mr. Rose Dana chuckled over the phone. [“Okay Master Anthony, what is it you want my help with this time?”] “I have someone here who’s going to call their bank account information for you within the next minute and I want you to transfer any amount he says plus extra into the account,” Anthony said and Frank’s eyes widened in surprise. “I didn’t want to bother you with this and I would have done it myself but I’m not in a situation that allows for that right now. I hope you understand” Anthony said while sounding apologetic. [“It’s no problem at all Master Anthony. I’ve already told you that I’m always here to help with whatever you need me for so don’t hesitate to ask for my help any time of the day. With that said, I’ll have Charlie carry out the transfer once I r
The Midnight Heir CLEAN UP
It didn’t take ten seconds after Frank dropped the phone on the ground for the phone to chime and vibrate from an email he just received.Anthony’s eyes went down to stare at the phone, prompting Frank to do the same.“Wait, it couldn’t have been the money can it?” Frank mumbled, not being able to believe that he just received two million dollars so suddenly. Everything was still like a dream to him and only that phone would let him know whether the dream has become reality yet or he’ll have to wait a little while longer.“There’s only one way to find out. Check for yourself” Anthony said, pointing at the phone.Frank gulped then slowly picked up the phone and clicked the notification on the Lock screen.Frank was taken to the email straightaway and it loaded for some seconds, making his heart pound increasingly harder while his hand vibrated from the anxiety. Finally, the message opened and Frank read the headline first because it’ll tell him all he needs to know about the rest.It
