Adam arched his eyebrows at him and ignored Vance's goading and focused on his opponents. He rolled his shoulders, limbering up his muscles. Though outnumbered, he remained calm and centered within. Amber watched Adam, awestruck by his composure under such pressure, "He may just surprise them yet," she said quietly to Adrien beside her, who only shrugged in response, he was rooting for his friend, while calculating in his brain how he could be of help, both of Adam’s opponents, were two formidable forces with track records.Where Amber and Adrien were pacing, with eyebrows drawn together, Cecil and Williams had similar smirks and satisfied looks on their faces; they couldn't wait to watch the end of Adam and watch it with all gladness. To add fuel to the fire, Cecil opened her mouth to attack Adam,“Stupid man, you think you can fight this heavyweight champion?? You'll be dead before you even start!” Cecil, mocked from where she was, her eyes dancing with happiness.Louisa had her e
Adam struggled against Juggernaut's iron grip, each breath more laboured than the last. His face turned red with exertion as he tried to pry the giant's arms apart, "Is this all you've got?" Juggernaut taunted, his voice rumbling like thunder.From the sidelines, Vance laughed, watching with shining eyes,"Finish him, Juggernaut! Show him no mercy! Show him why no one has ever been able to beat your record, show him the stuff you're made of!”Adam ignored Vance’s words, and as he focused on his racing mind, he needed a strategy, and fast. In a desperate move, he stomped hard on Juggernaut's foot. The giant bellowed in pain, his grip loosening just enough for Adam to slip free."Not so fast!" Adam gasped, spinning around to face his colossal opponent. He knew he couldn't out-muscle Juggernaut, so he would have to outsmart him.Juggernaut charged like a mad bull, but Adam dodged at the last second, using the giant's momentum against him. "You're going to have to do better than that!" A
Adam stared at Vance, aka the dragon as though he was mere dust, Vance’s flushed face had gone pallid, and the dragon had become a mere snake that he could crush with his boot, as he looked at the former dragon, he wondered where the boastful and scheming man had disappeared to,It was ironic that he was pleading for his life, the very person that had threatened his, he chuckled a little and arched his eyebrows at the former dragon,“Why should I spare your life? Tell me, give me one good reason”Vance the former dragon with his pallid face grated his teeth subconsciously, he didn't like what his persona had been reduced to, he who was the greatly feared and revered dragon, him who had murdered thousands and whom government officials trembled before his presence, if word ever got out about this he would be made a laughing stock.He gulped loudly as he kept his gaze on Adam, his entire eyes going white as he spoke. On second thought, he felt it was much better to die than to beg for hi
Adam's confusion was palpable as he stared at Vance, his brow furrowed, "What do you mean by that? What revenge?"Vance smiled slyly. "I know more about you than you think, Adam."Adam arched his brow, intrigued yet wary. "Explain yourself."Vance's smile widened, a spark of cunning alight in his eyes, "When you killed my father, I made it my mission to learn everything about you, Adam. Everything."Adam's stance stiffened, and the air around him charged with a sudden tension. He leaned forward, interest piqued despite himself. "Go on," He said, his voice a low growl of curiosity and suspicion, his eyes squinting as he stared at him,"I delved deep," Vance continued, his voice smooth, almost smug, "Using my networks, I uncovered your past. From your lonely beginnings in the Sander’s home to the injustices that led you to jail. And most importantly, of your true background and heritage"Adam's expression darkened at the unwelcome memories being dredged up. His heart pounded as Va
Adam’s eyebrows furrowed as his curiosity was piqued, he didn't know who could find him in such a place, wondering to himself if it was Raul in any way, one thing was certain, Raul could never be caught dead in such a place, so the possibility of him being the one was cancelled. “Who's the person?” he questioned as he looked at Cullen with a frown on his face,“It's me, Master”A voice rang clearly, as he came into view from Cullen’s back and bowed his head low,Adam was taken aback to see him, he wondered if the man had followed him, as though sensing Adam’s thoughts, the old man shook his head with a small smile on his face, “Not exactly, Master.”Adam briefly nodded his head, disbelieving his claims, Amber, and everyone else stared at their exchange with curious glances, unable to understand what was going on. As far as Amber knew, only one person referred to Adam with such respect, she had yet to see an advanced man address him in such a manner.Vance and Adrien stood and gaped
Amber kept on fuming on her toes as they headed to the destination, she had reluctantly entered into the car, alongside Adam, Sage Robinson, and a smirking Vance who was looking forward to her downfall, were coming in another car behind them,Adam, who sat in the back seat of Amber’s luxurious car, had an impassive look on his face, his face totally stoic while his mind raced with different questions.They soon arrived at their destination and got down, growling to herself, Amber matched forward, determined to get the charade over and done with, but mind also churning different thoughts as she walked.“This way Master”Sage Robinson led the way, and smiled at both Adam and Amber, ignoring the sneer and growl that was his way courtesy of Amber, who had a clenched fist.Adam nodded his head and allowed Amber to precede him, while a smirking and gloating Vance trudged behind, Amber had been pissed off to have Vance tag along, but Adam who still had his reservations, let him come along for
Hearing that deep and malicious voice, Elliott’s head snapped back and all the color in his face drained away as his eyes met those of Vance’s malicious glinting one, who had the temerity to wink at him for good measure.Elliot gulped loudly, as his eyes darted around the room, unable to steady his gaze on anything or anyone in particular. He was doomed and he knew it, he had let his anger and thirst for revenge push him into this doomsday. With pleading eyes, he gazed at Amber, it was way better to face her wrath than to face this burly and looming man,“I-it was…”The words stood lodged in his throat, unable to get out, he gulped once more, his eyes squinting. Amber was restraining herself against the rage that loomed,“Speak up, Idiot!”He shuddered and shivered at the thunderous tone that reverberated throughout the room. He shut his eyes tightly, wishing for the day to end.Cowering to himself, Elliott curled his body on the seat and raised his head to stare disdainfully at Addam
In a dimly lit room, Lincoln Turner paced back and forth, his men scattered around, eyeing him with hooded eyes, tight shoulders, and fidgety feet. His eyes glinted with a malicious fervour, a plan brewing in the depths of his twisted mind,"Listen up," Lincoln's voice cut through the silence like a knife, commanding attention,"We have a rat to catch, and not just any rat. But a very special rat that has refused to be crushed, it's no other than Adam Sanders, the very man standing in my way!” His men shifted uneasily, aware of Adam's formidable reputation,"He's strong," Lincoln admitted, his lips curling into a sneer, "but that's what makes this interesting."One of his men, a burly figure with a scar running down his arm, spoke up, "Boss, are you sure about this? Sanders is no easy target, and I heard that since he defeated Vance the Dragon, he's got him on his side. Plus, we've already tried hitting him once, and our men are still in their custody”Lincoln stopped pacing, turn
