Lord George stared arrogantly at Max Xanderson.
"Yes,Captain Barnes! It's too late to regret it now! Just wait for your death! "
But his voice barely above whispers as he knelt before Max Xanderson holding his stomach in pain.
Captain Barnes was one of the most feared men in Westerville, his influence was without question.
It was Lord George's connection to Captain Barnes that added to his power and influence in Westerville.
Max Xanderson snorted,didn't say a word, only stared at Lord George who was kneeling before him.
In a matter of 15 minutes, Captain Barnes arrived with his military company.
The park of the building where Max Xanderson and the Lucas family were was immediately flooded with numerous military trucks.
Countless uniformed army alighted from the truck and immediately made their way into the building.
They were all heavily armed, some with Heckler and Koch 416, some with AK 103 and other heavy assault weapons.
Upon hearing the noise and the heavy thumps of military boots heading towards their direction, Lord George was excited immediately.
"Now you will face the full wrath of messing with the Lucas family."
"Today you would totally wish you weren't born."
"And after I'm done with you…your family and that of your wife will be next."
Lord George Lucas' voice was laced with anger and venom as the sound of the thumps got closer to them.
The military men came in immediately and lined up in a manner that paved the way for the tall and dreaded Captain Barnes who walked into the room.
"Ah! Thank the gods you are here Captain."
"This non-entity here had my two sons ganged up and beaten to the point of death."
Lord George Lucas lied as he pointed at his son, Arnold Lucas, who had just woken up from shock he drifted into the moment his testicles were crushed by Max Xanderson.
Captain Barnes was putting on a dark shade and had his Glock-17 in his hand.
He stared at Lord George and his eyes followed his hands as he pointed at his son.
Upon seeing the blood-soaked man leaning by his brother Martin Lucas, Captain Barnes immediately removed his dark shade.
All this while he hasn't turned to see Max Xanderson who was now holding Melissa Stevens on the floor.
His eyebrows furrowed in bewilderment and a mixture of confusion and anger reeked all over him.
"What the hell…"
"Were you attacked by a werewolf or what?"
Captain Barnes asked as he walked closer to examine the strange and perfect cuts all over Arnold Lucas.
"It was him…this beast-like man creature."
"He beat up my son and squashed his balls!"
Lord George Lucas yelled tears well down his eyes profusely, his hands pointing at Max Xanderson.
Captain Barnes boiled up in anger, his fist clenched in vexation, his veins all bulging out, he immediately turned with his Glock-17 pointing in the direction that Lord George was showing him.
Immediately his gaze fell on Max Xanderson, his countenance changed from anger to gloom.
His Glock-17 immediately fell off his hands unconsciously and he began to tremble uncontrollably.
Immediately he turned as he heard the voice of Arnold Lucas yelling, "Captain…please torture him hard before you kill him."
"He crushed my balls, both of them, crush his too please…"
"Make him beg for mercy before you kill…"
Before Arnold Lucas could continue, Captain Barnes walked over to him and landed him a resounding slap that sent two of his teeth flying off his mouth.
"Do you know what you have just done?"
"Do you know the man who you have just angered?!"
Captain Barnes yelled at Arnold Lucas who had his face now laced with fresh bloody wounds.
Lord George Lucas and Martins Lucas stared at Captain Barnes in bewilderment.
'What is he yapping about?'
Lord George Lucas's thoughts on a rampage.
Immediately Captain Barnes signaled two of his soldiers and yelled.
"Break his limbs now!!!"
His voice was laced with power as he pointed at Arnold Lucas who was already weeping in confusion as he tried to articulate what was going on.
"What's going on Captain?"
"You are supposed to be breaking this animal's limbs and not my already deformed son!"
Lord George immediately yelled as he grovelled at the feet of Captain Barnes and begged him to spare his son.
Captain Barnes only watched as the soldiers obeyed him and broke Arnold Luca's limb who yelled out in a loud voice.
Today was just not his day, he had been doing this with other ladies and had been getting away through his father's influence, but today he had messed with the wrong swan.
As the military men threw Arnold Lucas to the ground after destroying his limbs, Captain Barnes immediately ran and fell before Max Xanderson and pleaded for mercy.
"I'm so sorry General…I didn't know that these imbeciles had angered you…I'm really sorry…"
Max Xanderson only shook his head in disappointment and took off the star on the shoulder pad of Captain Barnes.
"Captain Barnes, from today you are no longer in charge of the Black Force Army...You are dismissed."
Max Xanderson's voice was barely above whispers but his voice still echoed through the room with authority.
"I'm really sorry General…"
"I promise it won't happen again…"
Captain Barnes begged as he knelt before Max Xanderson not even being able to gaze upon his face, tears wells down his eyes uncontrollably.
Lord George Lucas immediately tapped his son, Martin Lucas.
"Who is this man that the dreaded Captain Barnes should kneel and beg before him?"
His voice was barely above whispers as he dared not gaze upon Max Xanderson again.
"I don't know dad…"
"I just hope it's not the one man I think he is…"
Martin Lucas replied, his voice laced with a mixture of confusion and trepidation.
As Max Xanderson stared at Captain Barnes, Melissa immediately opened her eyes and coughed out loud."Melissa!...""Are you okay?"Max Xanderson immediately asked as he ran over to Melissa who was now trying to stand up."I'm okay…so this isn't a dream?"Melissa Stevens asked as Max Xanderson helped her get up from the ground."Melissa, I'm really…"Taa!!!Max Xanderson was interrupted by a slap to his cheeks.Max Xanderson immediately shook his head and stared at Melissa Stevens.He knew he deserved an even hotter slap as he was the primary reason for all the suffering that Melissa Stevens was undergoing."How dare you slap the Gen…"Max Xanderson immediately raised his hand stopping Captain Barnes who was now looking for any available chance to get back into the good books of Max Xanderson."Why did you leave us?!""Why didn't you come back as you promised?!""Do you know the level of torture and disdain I have and my family have faced from my grandfather Lord Dylan Stevens?""We ha
"Just pray I don't meet you today because if I do, you will be dead meat."Max Xanderson spoke to himself as he sped past two lover birds kissing by the roadside, almost knocking them over."Watch it, jerk!"The couple screamed out loud.Meanwhile, at an old abandoned supermarket, the light is flickering revealing a young lady standing before a camera mounted to a tripod stand.Behind her was a 3-year-old girl, Chloe Maxwell strapped to a chair.Tears welled down Chloe's eyes as she stared at Alice Stevens who had gone to fix something on her camera."So who would love to see how a 3-year-old girl reacts when being hosed with a fire extinguisher?"Alice Stevens immediately asked her live streamers.Her voice was laced with exhilaration as her number of live streamers immediately jumped to over 2,000,000.She had done some humiliating stuff to Chloe Maxwell lately, like letting a giant spider crawl up her face while the little girl screamed.The comments on her livestream skyrocketed a
Alice Stevens paced around trying to gather her stuff to disappear from the scene as her gaze had fallen on a military-grade Range Rover.Max Xanderson stepped out of the car and immediately removed his dark shades.His gaze fell on his daughter Chloe who was still partly awake tied to a chair."Dad…is…that you?"Chloe Maxwell asked, her voice was barely above whispers as tears wells down her cheeks.Her body was covered in whitish powder from the fire extinguisher, her hair was all dishevelled.Max Xanderson immediately ran towards her and held her closely."It's me, Chloe…I'm back…what happened to you?"He asked as he examined the wounded body of his daughter.As Max Xanderson asked the question, his gaze immediately fell on Alice Stevens who was now at the door turning the door knob to escape."You!"Max Xanderson's voice was laced with authority and venom as he raced towards Alice Stevens who still struggled to open the door.Before Alice Stevens could turn, Max Xanderson reached
Max Xanderson turned immediately and heaved a sigh of relief as his daughter was still on the bed and hadn't seen what had happened."I'm coming sweetheart."Max Xanderson immediately said as he rolled Alice Stevens up in a carton and dumped her into one of the stores in the supermarket.Rushing towards Chloe, he immediately gets to the chair where she was tied up and starts to loosen the rope off his daughter.The untying took about 1 minute as Alice Stevens had really done a great job with tying up little Chloe.Hugging his daughter tight, Max Xanderson immediately wept slowly and dabbed his tears away.The situation was intense and palpable."Dad, why did you leave us?""Is it because mom wasn't good enough for you?""Or is it me?…wasn't I good enough for you?"Chloe Maxwell asked as she stared into Max's face which was now laced with a mixture of confusion and disappointment."Darling is not that…"Max Xanderson tried hard to explain, but no one, not even his daughter could unders
Max Xanderson, Chloe and her daughter got back to Melissa's home."What is this supposed to be?"Max Xanderson immediately asked as he alighted from the vehicle, his face was laced with confusion and bewilderment as he stared at the house."What is it?... Don't tell me you are ashamed of our home too."Melissa Stevens asked as she pressed the doorbell of the discoloured iron door."What happened…I thought I had told…"Max Xanderson immediately realized that he was about to blurt out who he really was, he paused and stared at Melissa and the shabby place she now called home."You thought what Max?""Ever since you disappeared into thin air, did you ever care about how we had been surviving?"Melissa Stevens immediately asked, her voice was laced with a mixture of anger and frustration as she stared at Max who had a rather shocking face as he saw the slum Melissa's family was now living in."If you think our house isn't good enough for you, you could as well not come in."Melissa Steven
Mrs Sophia's voice was laced with a mixture of confusion and trepidation as she stared into the sky above her."That reminds me Melissa, where is the invitation card you were supposed to retrieve from Arnold Lucas?"Her hands stretched out in expectancy."Mom, there was a little bit of a problem with the arrangement.""What are you yapping about!""You had one job, Melissa, retrieve the invitation, deliver it to your grandmother and we can have our normal influential life back at the Stevens fort."Mrs Sophia immediately lashed out at her daughter, her eyes glimpsing in fury."Mom, it was a setup, Lady Megan and Lord Dylan Stevens wanted Arnold Lucas to sleep with me before he could give me the invite.""When I refused he threatened to forcefully do it, he and Alice connived and held Chloe hostage.""It was Max's timely intervention that saved me from the hands of that scumbag."Melissa Stevens went ahead to explain as her mom, Sophia Stevens stared at the whole thing in shock.Her fa
"Captain Barnes.""General Cobra Claw, I'm really sorry for what happened earlier."Captain Barnes' voice was laced with a mixture of anxiety and trepidation as he trembled in his room.He hadn't been quite himself since he was deranked by the grand general himself.He had already slept off, it was the ringing of his phone that jolted him back to life."Captain, I have one last job for you, screw it up and I will haunt you and make your family a dead meat."Max Xanderson's voice was laced with authority as he relayed the message to Captain Barnes."General, I wouldn't fail you, I will be there in a jiffy with the VIP invitation.""Thank you for…."His voice was immediately cut off as Max Xanderson ended the call and plopped into the pavement waiting for Captain Barnes.He had given him just 12 mins to get his sorry ass to his location immediately.Moments later, Max Xanderson is racing to Stevens Fort with the VIP invitation in his hand."Mrs Sophia!""Melissa!... Wait up!"Max Xander
"Melissa you had only one job, which was to get the invitation and get yourself and your family back to their place.""But instead you had your gold digger of a husband return from self-exile and beat up the all-influential Lord George and his son Arnold Lucas.""Why is that?""Tell me cousin…why should we ever allow you, your mom and your so-called daughter back into the Stevens family.""You have brought nothing but shame and reproach to us.""You should be on your knees begging with the Invitation in your hand but there you are without the invitation.""You should be ashamed of walking into this villa without that invitation."Eunice Stevens continued with her disdainful words making Melissa and her daughter almost go down in tears."For your information, Lady Megan said that if you don't provide the invitation to the grand general's wedding, you all should consider yourselves kicked out of the Stevens family…forever "Her last word sent more shivers down the spine of Melissa Steve
“Mrs Sophia Stevens, Jack Oniels isn't available at the moment, he had to go run an errand for the boss himself.”Max Xanderson said almost immediately as he maintained a steady eye contact with Mrs Sophia Stevens.“He went to run an errand for the boss, can you really hear yourself Max Xanderson?”Mrs Sophia Stevens asked immediately, her voice was laced with a little mix of anger and sarcasm.Max Xanderson slowly turned and looked the other way.Melissa Stevens was already tired of talking and this time around, instead of talking, she only stared at her mom as she continued attacking Max Xanderson in a way.Mrs Sophia Stevens immediately and had her gaze at her daughter, Melissa Stevens and that of little Chloe Maxwell, her granddaughter.“Melissa, I know you might be mad at me at the moment but believe me I'm doing all this to protect you and little Chloe Maxwell.”“I have a feeling that Max Xanderson, your husband, had actually angered some high entities in the Westerville societ
Melissa Stevens immediately said, her voice was laced with a mixture of determination and reassurance for Max Xanderson.Little Chloe Maxwell, who had been quietly observing the adults with wide, curious eyes, finally spoke up. “Granny,” little Chloe Maxwell said in a small voice.“Daddy, Max Xanderson, wouldn’t do anything bad... right?”Her innocent question carried an undercurrent of doubt, making the tension in the room even thicker.Max Xanderson turned to his daughter Chloe Maxwell, forcing a reassuring smile despite the growing unease inside him. “Of course not, sweetheart. I’d never hurt anyone or hide something this serious.”Max Xanderson said, his voice laced with a mixture of determination, emotions and reassurance as he smiled gleefully at his daughter, little Chloe Maxwell.Mrs Sophia Stevens, however, wasn’t ready to let the matter drop. “Then explain the smirk I saw earlier, Max Xanderson!”“Was it a relief? Satisfaction? What was it?”Mrs Sophia Steven's voice was
“Mom, we are waiting for you to say something already.”“I really don't like where this is going at the moment, we have had a weird and frightening day already, can we please have our dinner in one piece.”The situation was intense and palpable as Melissa Stevens stared at Max Xanderson and her mom, Mrs Sharon Xanderson.Mrs Sophia Stevens was a bit hesitant, she didn't want to say much to offset the peace that they had just gotten after the surprise knock on their front door earlier.“Mom, can you please clarify for us!”“What is actually going on here, do you think that Max Xanderson, my husband, is in any way connected to the recent happenings at the Xanderson family villa?”“Mom, if you know anything, you can just say it…please.”“Please Mom, just say it and let's get this over with already Mom.”Melissa Stevens urged, her voice trembling slightly as the tension in the room became a bit too unbearable.Her hands rested on the table, fingers tapping nervously against the polished w
Max Xanderson slowly moved towards the table and moments later, they were all seated by the table and enjoyed their meals.Just then, Mrs Sophia Stevens immediately grabbed the television remote and turned it on, the channel was turned on to the Westerville local news.The news channel was talking about the recent events that had just happened at the Xanderson family villa.The situation was intense and palpable as the news reporters talked about how the Xanderson family villa was raided by some unknown men from an unknown destination.Max Xanderson slowly gazed at his food, he was clearly hoping that the Xandersons hadn't in any way called out his name and that of Jack Oniels to be the ones who had stormed the Xanderson's family and attacked Mr Jeremy Xanderson and killed Lord Larry Harold.It just seemed as if luck was on the side of Max Xanderson as the news reporter made all her reports but didn't say a thing about Max Xanderson and Jack Oniels being the ones who had stormed the X
Now outside Max Xanderson is walking around with the flashlight still in his hand, he immediately turned as though he had seen something walk past him very fast.“Who is that?!”Max Xanderson immediately asked, his voice was laced with a mixture of authority and determination.Turning around again, he saw no one in the direction he had just stared at.The situation was intense and palpable as Max Xanderson walked around the whole building with his military grade flashlight and fully loaded desert eagle in his hand.Taking a deep breath, Max Xanderson immediately turned and decided to go back inside the house.Walking back towards the door, he slowly felt something wrong with the ambiance of the entire place.“Who is there for the last time, don't force my hand to take you out of this existence immediately!”Max Xanderson said as he immediately walked towards the direction of the noise.Slowly he kicked off the waste bin lid in front of him and a wild kitten just raced away, almost mak
Mrs Sophia Stevens immediately took a deep breath and plopped into the chair behind her.“Little Chloe Maxwell, I know that your dad promised that he would be back and I totally believe it even more than you and your mom.”“I'm only trying to be a bit realistic with the recent happenings.”“There is every possibility of your dad not coming back…I'm not trying to scare you little Chloe Maxwell, I'm just trying to be a bit realistic with the odds of the whole situation.”“Look at it this way, what if those people are fully armed and dripping wet with heavy ammunition, do any of you think that Max Xanderson will stand a chance?!”Mrs Sophia Stevens asked almost immediately, her voice was laced with a mixture of anxiety and trepidation.She had not for once believed that Max Xanderson will definitely be back even after Max Xanderson had said that he would be back for them.“Mom, how can you say a thing like that?!”“Max Xanderson is my husband and he will definitely be back and I know th
Mrs Sophia Stevens' voice was laced with a mixture of confusion and a little bit of anxiety as she spoke and stared at Max Xanderson and slowly signalled to Max Xanderson to walk towards the door.The situation was intense and palpable as Max Xanderson stared at her and moved towards the door almost immediately.“Wait a minute.”“Max, take this umbrella, in case it's one of the bad animals that took my daughter the other day.”Mrs Sophia Stevens' voice was barely above whispers as he didn't want the person or people by the door.Max Xanderson slowly smiled and took the umbrella, on reaching the door, he immediately kept the umbrella by the door and slowly asked.“Who is there?!”His voice was laced with a mixture of authority and determination.There was no response from whomever it was outside the door.Little Chloe Maxwell immediately let her grandmother and raced towards her mom, Melissa Stevens who was still a little bit shocked and bewildered at the recent happenings in their hom
Max Xanderson slowly took a deep breath and gazed at the military trucks as they carried Jack Oniels away to be treated in the supreme Elite Forces military medical unit.Taking another deep breath, Max Xanderson immediately jumped into the military convertible van and drove off immediately and moments later he was standing at Melissa Stevens's home.Max Xanderson immediately walked over to the door and immediately opened it and little Chloe Maxwell jumped on top of Max Xanderson.“Dad you are back!”“What's in the bag, is it something we can eat?” Little Chloe Maxwell asked as she smiled gleefully at Max Xanderson, her dad.The situation was intense and Max Xanderson slowly kept little Chloe Maxwell on the floor and smiled gleefully at her.“You guessed right little Chloe Maxwell, it's something we can eat!”Max Xanderson immediately funnily said as he immediately handed the big bag of groceries.Little Chloe Maxwell immediately raced off and handed the bag to Mrs Sophia Stevens who
Jack Oniels immediately chuckled weakly, though it turned into a cough that left him twisting his face."With all due respect, General Cobra Claw, I think you underestimate how much we’d sacrifice for you.”“For the Supreme Elite Forces. For everything we stand for."Jack Oniels's voice softened, though it still carried the weight of his unwavering loyalty and dedication to Max Xanderson's course."If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn’t change a damn thing."Jack Oniels immediately added, his voice was laced with a mixture of determination and reassurance.Max Xanderson immediately ran a hand through his hair, his frustration and surprise a bit evident.He stood abruptly, pacing a few steps away before turning back."Jack Oniels, you’re more than just a soldier to me.”“You’re my second-in-command, my friend.”“These past few years I have spent with you have made me realize that you are now more than my friend, you have become my best friend.”“Do you know how it feels to watch y
