The world seemed to be in slow motion when Victor launched himself up into the demolished face of the building from the ground. Glass shards, debris, and timber flew across the room. Victor appeared before Sebastian, blocking the sun like an eclipse.Sebastian scampered back to the wall in horror. What the hell was going on? Did Victor defuse the coffin bomb? It was supposed to have blown up the Damone ancestral household!But the scene that unfolded before Sebastian was much more bizarre. Victor jumped off a military chopper, shot a twenty-ton coffin to the eighteenth floor, and himself leaped two hundred feet high into the room!Was he dreaming? Or did Victor have superpowers?"How is this possible?" he stammered with his back to the wall. There was no way such physical feats were possible.Victor cornered Sebastian in a split second and grabbed him by the neck. He slid the young man up the wall like a ragdoll. The billionaire began choking under the vice grip.Victor could snap his
Val looked utterly unfazed. She casually caught the couch in mid-air as if it were a pillow. Then she dropped it on the floor and settled on it."Shh…" she said, pointing at Carol. "We don't want to wake the Sleeping Beauty before the Prince arrives."Joe was shocked beyond belief. How did the woman catch a heavy couch so easily? He gritted his teeth and pulled out a pistol."Time to die!" he barked, firing off two rounds at Val. However, the bullets lodged into the wall behind her. Joe stared in disbelief. Did the woman disappear?"Peekaboo!" Val said from behind him.Joe Savage's eyes widened as two powerful hands grabbed his head and twisted it. His neck snapped with a loud crunch. The hulk dropped dead to the floor like a sack of sand.Val winced and wiped her hands on her clothes. "Yuck! He's slimy and disgusting!"The female warrior walked over to the unconscious Carol. "Hello, Sleeping Beauty," she said, zipping up her dress."I don't know what Caesar sees in you. You are a weak

The conference room was dimly lit, yet the chairs cast long shadows on the walls. The faces of most of the attending members were under shadows or covered with masks. Secrecy was integral in the high-profile meeting. However, a couple of them were too proud to remain hidden."The New World Order has taken over Springfield," an old but rugged-faced man said, leaning forward. He was Lector Damone, the Chairman of Falcon Industries, the third-largest conglomerate in the world."Didn't you send your grandson to neutralize them?" Alexander Blackwell jibed with a smirk."Hold your tongue!" Lector barked. "You are a minuscule company compared to mine.""I own Carmine City," came the reply. "But you lost Springfield, the mother lode! The Rapids Project will bring an end to all our businesses. What's the point of having a big dick if you can't get it up?"Sparks flew between the two patriarchs. Tensions flared between other members of the room as well. Billionaires and mafiosos from across the
The crowd began murmuring amongst themselves in utter confusion. What was going on? Had the host gone insane? What was that about enslaving the celebrities?Nina Mendez left her seat in a temper. She was acquainted with being pampered and fawned over. Instead, the host was being disrespectful. Even as a prank, his behavior was unacceptable."What nonsense is this?" she snapped at him with an exaggerated display of her arms. "If this is a joke, it's not a funny one! Quit it, or you're fired!"The host turned to her and sucker-punched her in the gut. Nina got the breath knocked out of her. She keeled over in pain. As the beauty raised her head, the host pointed a gun at her head. "Sit down or die, bitch! Your choice."Nina gasped and staggered back to her seat. The other celebrities, including Haley and Julia, were petrified. Had terrorists hijacked the event?The host smiled fiendishly from ear to ear and turned to the crowd. "It's time to purge the useless rabble first," he declared o
Rose Atelier was in Edgar Tower in an important project-related meeting when her secretary, Joanne, barged in."What is this, Jo? I instructed you not to disturb me until the meeting is over.""Ma'am, it's very urgent," the secretary said, approaching her boss with staggered steps. She had a panic-stricken look about her."Alright, tell me. What's wrong?"Joanne quickly stooped and whispered the news into Rose's ear. The latter's eyes widened. "What? How is that even possible?"Rose immediately excused herself from the meeting and rushed into an adjoining office with Joanne. Her mind raced, and she thought it was a living nightmare."Are you serious?" Rose asked in alarm. "All the staff in all my resorts are dead? How? Who did it?"Joanne looked like she'd spiral into hysteria at any moment. But she steeled herself before her boss. She wouldn't let herself break down until Rose knew what happened."It looks like poisoning, ma'am. Customers from all resorts have been calling, reporting
Haley B’s eyes fluttered open to dimly lit surroundings. She had been blindfolded and gagged for a while. However, she realized she had been transported underground.While Haley’s vision was cut off, someone undressed her and made her wear skimpy leather clothes. When her blindfold and gag were removed, she found herself in a low hall with dim lighting. Along with other celebrities and models, she was chained to a crucifix-like stand.Haley felt severely violated. It reminded her of the time terrorists captured her in Russia. Victor saved her then, but what about now?The beauty turned to look at her captor. It was actually another female who was tightening her bonds on the crucifix.“You’re one of the island staff, aren’t you?” she whispered. “Why are you doing this?”The young female was already in tears, and apprehension clouded her face. “I’m sorry, ma’am. The terrorists are making us do this. If we don’t cooperate, they will kill us. Be rest assured, I was the one who undressed
Victor woke up in a luxurious bed in the Black Rock villa. Even though such a lavish life was not unfamiliar to him, he always felt more comfortable sleeping in his old home beside Carol. Unfortunately, Black Rock was his new headquarters.Victor picked up his phone and found over a hundred calls and messages, mainly from Maverick.“Hello? What is it, Mav? I haven’t checked the messages yet.”Maverick’s tone was one of panic. “Sir, Springfield is under attack! Top billionaires have been assassinated overnight! Their families are being wiped out; Properties, businesses, and licenses are being bought off or usurped as we speak!”Victor clenched his jaw. “It must be Monolith! The Puppetmaster has declared war on us, it seems!””That’s most likely, sir. Our agents are trying to neutralize their teams, but we have low success rates. Clive Baron is safe. What are your orders?”Victor paused for a moment, processing the chaos in his head. It couldn’t be that simple. Monolith acquiring busine
