The Trampled Son's Awakening chapter 41
The period following the gathering at Father Michael's church was more peaceful than anticipated by everyone. Life continued on as though nothing was different, but deep down, everyone understood that it was far from finished. Liam and his group had gone back to their usual activities, but the assignment to take down Harlow stayed in their thoughts like an unshakeable burden. Returning to his full-time position at the mechanic shop, Liam took comfort in the routine of his job. While his hands focused on repairing vehicles, his thoughts consistently returned to the unusual sense of tranquility. It seemed too perfect to be real, and Liam sensed an approaching storm. While the rest had gone their separate ways, the group remained connected through secret messages and occasional, low-key gatherings. Their facade of normality was just a temporary shield; they were all aware it wouldn't endure. Harlow had moved back into the darkness, his existence on the property a menacing danger. His
The Trampled Son's Awakening PROLOGUE
The magnificent gates of Opulent University loomed before Liam, promising a world different from his ordinary life. As he entered, a deep voice called from the hallway, "Hey, there goes another man, call him for me." Liam turned to see six hefty guys on the pavement. "Come down here, man," the voice ordered, and a huge, fair guy with broad shoulders called out to him."Are you referring to me?" Liam asked playfully, his slim stature a reminder of the turmoil he had faced since his mother's demise."No one questions me that way, boy," the huge guy replied, his tone deep and threatening, causing Liam to step back."Macho, why not give him some welcome punches?" Another guy with scattered hair and a skinny look suggested.Liam, looking fragile and thin, smiled, trying to appear friendly despite the approaching danger."Hi, I'm Liam," he said, extending his hand for a polite handshake."I'm n..." Macho didn't let him finish as a hard slap landed on his cheek."No one talks to Macho that

His Trampling Starts.Liam turned to a slap that landed directly on his cheeks. "How dare you come near my girlfriend," a deep voice roared."No, please, he was wounded and I had to assist him," Lindy scowled at Roberts, her light voice showing her disappointment ."Shut your traps, bitch! You're a cheat. I have warned you severally," the tall guy snarled, his eyes red in anguish. "Look here, young man, I don't tolerate people coming around my babe," he snorted.Lindy couldn't believe what Robson did; she knew him to be so possessive but never to that very extent."I'm sorry, man," Liam said, his eyes clouded with tears as he struggled to blink, cleaning his eyes repeatedly. "Get the fuck out of here," Robert grumbled."Man, always be calm; you can't tell what tomorrow ho..." Liam didn't finish his statement when another slap landed on his face."Liam, can you stop it," Lindy screamed as several other individuals laughed at him with contempt.A tear dropped from Liam's eyes; he couldn

His Greatest FearsSandra, a rude and arrogant girl in her early 20s, happens to be one of the top-class students at Opulent University. She wastes no time but holds Liam by his shirt immediately. "That phone costs $70,000. You've ruined it from your carelessness, so you'll have to pay up right now."Liam startles, not knowing what to do or say. He looks blankly at Sandra; his gaze shows a level of confusion and remorse. The other students cheer Sandra, who is breathing heavily, her eyes burning in provocation."Sandra, please calm down. It was a mistake. Please forgive me," Liam pleads.Even after hearing his apology, nothing changes. Sandra still stands with a sad demeanour, her lips tightened as she pulls Liam to and fro."I dare not want to hear you say it was a mistake. I want you to pay up right now, or you hand me something expensive that you've got in exchange for it," Sandra grumbles."It's too much for me, Sandra," Liam laments. "I would definitely pay up for it in due time.

Liam's AwakeningAs the evening shadows stretched across the cliff, Liam's lifeless form lay still, the pendant around his neck glinting faintly in the fading light. Suddenly, a shimmer of light danced along the necklace, a precious gift from his mother. In a breathtaking moment, Liam's body stirred, as if stirred by an unseen force.A surge of energy pulsed from the pendant, a radiant beacon against the darkening sky. Lightning crackled, striking with precision, illuminating the scene with an eerie glow. Every passerby saw it from a distance and halted, drawn by the spectacle unfolding before them.

Retaliation BeginsLiam shook his head, trying to maintain a delicate posture. He turned to walk out, trying to force his toes from beneath Richard's feet.Richard immediately opened the drink, emptying it all on Liam's head."Loser!! I so enjoy humiliating you, boy," he bragged.The students laughed hysterically, but just then Lindy approached Richard with a frown."Can you stop treating him this way? It's pathetic how you make him a subject of jest and mockery." Just as she was about to finish her words, Richard turned to her, pushing her away."Get out of here. This has nothing to do with you," he gloated. "No, don't do that," Liam attempted to stop him, but Richard slapped him, the swish sound of the slap echoed in the cafeteria.There was an abrupt jubilation from the students. Liam didn't need to be told that it was the right time for him to teach Richard a lesson of his life. **********Immediately, the blue rays showed like a shadow before him. He breathed deeper, his arms fe

The Shocking MomentThose questions lingered in the air as Liam sobbed continuously, tears running down his cheeks, but just as he pondered on it, he saw his greatest fear walk towards him, it was Lyndy, the girl who never liked and never hated Liam. "Hello" , she waves, her beautiful English accent flowing as she stares at Liam as though she had a pending issue. "What's it Lindy? Liam broke the silence, after he had wiped his eyes severally with the back of his hands, trying to keep a calm gesture.His face looked blank, he tried to spice it up with a short smile."I still can't believe what happened at the cafeteria the other day, Liam, have you always been rich or were you just trying to make me feel like you're wealthy?" The curiosity in Lindy's face showed. Her eyes widened as she stared at him, expecting a reply. Liam smiled again, turning his head to and forth, then turned his face to write on the wall, showing a feeling that made him look like he was shy, "of course I wo

Chapter 40
The night had dragged on, tense and uncertain, but now the morning sun bathed the town in a gentle, golden glow. After the close encounter with Harlow last night, everyone was completely drained - physically, emotionally, and mentally. They had successfully avoided a catastrophe, for the time being, but the task was not yet complete. Although Liam, Jordan, and Rachel successfully returned from Harlow's estate, they were unable to bring back his whole family. Some stayed faithful to Harlow, while some were too scared to go. The victory was tenuous at most. Father Michael convened one last gathering at the church before everyone went their separate ways. The room was a mix of relief and anxiety, with the understanding that this was not yet finished. Father Michael started by expressing his gratitude to everyone in the room for their courage. He looked at every person - Liam, Jordan, Lindy, Rachel, Principal Dawson, and Elena, who was forgiven for her role as a spy for Harlow. "W

The atmosphere in the room was tense following Harlow's son's abrupt entrance with his urgent message. The pale and trembling boy held onto Lindy, who tried to reassure him. Liam, Jordan, and Father Michael shared solemn expressions, feeling the gravity of the situation pressing down on them. "What precise words did your father use?" Jordan inquired with a hushed and pressing tone. The boy, struggling to control his fear, stumbled over his words, saying, "He... he's mad." He is aware that you are all uniting against him. He is scheming a major project. I... I listened to him speaking with his soldiers. "He's on his way to get you."Liam could feel his heart pounding in his chest. He looked around the room, observing the worried expressions on his friends' faces. They were together, but the signs of discord were already starting to appear. Seated in a corner, Elena appeared pale and distant. She had been providing Harlow with information, possibly for sabotage or to ensure survival.

Father Michael's words weighed heavily in the air, just like a dark and ominous storm cloud. Liam felt his heart pounding in excitement as he glanced at Elena, then returned his gaze to the priest. He couldn't stop thinking: Did Father Michael have hidden information, or was he just echoing the rumors they were already thinking about? The group remained immobile, each member contemplating the arrival of the priest, uncertain if it was a gift or a punishment. Father Michael, a man known for his peaceful demeanor and astute insights, had served as a spiritual mentor in the community for many years. However, his mere existence now held an unsettling heaviness. "Is it true?" Lindy shattered the quietness with her sharp voice, slicing through the tense atmosphere. Who is responsible for disseminating them? And for what reason at this moment? Father Michael moved ahead, his aged face clouded with worry. I've learned information during confession that makes me think Harlow's influ

The sun was just starting to rise, spreading a soft orange light over the town, yet inside Liam's house, tension hung thick in the air. The occurrences from the night before were significantly impacting everyone's thoughts. Harlow's unexpected vanishing, Naomi's mysterious actions, and the unsettling possibility of someone in their group being deceitful. Liam, Lindy, Jordan, along with some fresh faces in their group, gathered in Liam's living room, their expressions showing worry. They were now more than just students handling campus problems. This had evolved into something much more threatening - something that could drive them away from each other. Liam walked back and forth in the room, feeling the burden of leadership weighing heavily on him. He realized with a sense of urgency that someone could be providing information to Harlow. The question remains: who could it possibly be? "Are we actually going to continue to act as if there are no problems?" Lindy at last opened

The moon's low position in the sky created eerie shadows over the silent town as Harlow walked towards the isolated house on the edges. Indoors, the lighting was low, yet it provided a slightly eerie glow to the surroundings. This was his safe haven - a distant retreat from the curious gazes of the town, the school, and all those who believed they grasped who he truly was. When he got home, Harlow found his wife Naomi sitting in the living room. Her usual grace and composure were replaced by a stern expression and piercing gaze as she looked at him tonight. She calmly mentioned you were tardy, staying seated. Their kids, Claire and Jacob, were upstairs, probably already in dreamland. Or, at the very least, that's the belief they hoped she would adopt. Harlow took off his coat, his thoughts filled with the school and his upcoming plans. "I had some matters to attend to.” Naomi's lips formed a tight line. "Commerce." "Correct." She spoke with a hint of contempt in her voice. Is your

Liam was positioned in the middle of the room, sensing the gaze of all present upon him. The tension increased with the arrival of Peter, Eleanor, Father Matthews, Principal Hayes, Daisy, and now Lily. Trust had already been fragile, but with each new person, it appeared to crumble even more. He shared a look with Lindy, who was keeping a close eye on Daisy. The doubt she had sown in his mind bothered him. "Okay," Principal Hayes stated, interrupting the tense quietness. We require a strategy. We are eagerly anticipating Harlow's next move. We need to take initiative. With his arms still folded, Peter nodded in approval. "We must ensure the safety of the students. Locate the mole and eliminate any potential dangers before the situation worsens.Eleanor moved ahead, speaking to the room. The festival marked only the start. If Harlow has larger plans, we must determine the specifics and identify his accomplices. Father Matthews, who had been silently watching the group, spoke in a ca

Soft golden hues were cast across the room as morning sunlight filtered through the cabin curtains. The tension remained heavy like a lingering fog despite the uneventful night. While the group woke up, a tense tranquility filled the air. Huddled in a armchair next to the window, Lindy observed Liam quietly making coffee, his mind still weighed down by thoughts from the previous evening. Sarah and Mark, parents of the person, sought shelter in the tiny guest bedroom, quietly discussing their worries until the early hours. Their being there, though reassuring, carried an odd heaviness. It brought to mind for Lindy the shared responsibility they now had - it wasn't only about the festival or Harlow. It was about a more profound issue, something that had been developing long before the chaos started. Upon entering the room, the scent of fresh coffee lingered as Daisy confidently walked in, disrupting the quiet atmosphere. Good morning, everyone. I hope everyone is feeling a bit better

As the group exited the vehicle, they were greeted by the cool and refreshing air surrounding the cabin. The diminishing sunlight from the sunset created a cozy atmosphere on the cabin with wood paneling, surrounded by tall trees. It seemed secure, isolated, and distant from the turmoil they had experienced in recent days. Liam assisted Jordan in extracting Carl from the car, his body hanging useless due to fatigue. They led him cautiously towards the cabin, while Lindy followed behind, keeping a close watch to make sure no one was following them. Upon entering, they were welcomed by the familiar fragrance of old pine and dust, evoking memories of countless summers Lindy's family had enjoyed at the location. It had been years since she visited the cabin, yet it still felt like home in a strangely comforting manner. "Let's help Carl get comfortable," Jordan suggested as he directed him to the aged leather sofa in the corner of the room. He promptly seized the medical kit that Lindy
