The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 119. Fall of the Architect
Elijah stood in the dimly lit hall, his gaze fixed on the entrance where he knew David, the Architect, would make his appearance.The tension hung thick in the air, the quiet moments before a storm that had been brewing for years.He adjusted his stance, calm but ready, every muscle braced for what lay ahead.The doors opened, and David strode in, his expression calm, almost amused."So," he said, his voice echoing off the walls, "we’ve finally come to this."Elijah’s eyes narrowed. "The game you started all those years ago—it ends tonight."David chuckled, the sound low and taunting."You speak with such finality, Elijah. But do you really think you’ve outmaneuvered me? Everything you’ve done, every alliance, every move… I saw it coming. I allowed it."Elijah held his ground, his voice steady. "And here you are, alone, without any of your puppets to back you up. Maybe your control wasn’t as absolute as you thought."David’s expression darkened. "I was the one who shaped Evendore! I d
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 120. New Horizons
Two days after the shocking incident, Elijah and Sophia finalized their honeymoon plans. The destination had been decided: a secluded island, far from the noise and power games of Evendore. Sophia was thrilled, her eyes lighting up as she read through the itinerary, while Elijah observed her with a small, reserved smile."So," Sophia said, folding the itinerary and looking up at him, "an island getaway, huh? Just us, no interruptions?" Her tone held a mix of excitement and disbelief.Elijah nodded, a touch of amusement in his eyes. "Just us. Away from it all."She reached across the table, her fingers brushing his. "I can’t believe it. After everything… it’s really happening."Elijah’s expression softened. "You deserve this, Sophia. We both do."Her eyes shone as she squeezed his hand. "It’s just… well, it feels surreal. And for once, I want to leave all the complications behind. No more shadows from the past, no more questions… Just us and the future."Elijah gave a slight nod, hidin
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 121. Shadows on the Horizon
Elijah and Sophia spent their days immersed in each other’s company, exploring the winding paths of the island and savoring every moment together.It was a new world for them—one where there was no need to look over their shoulders, no reason to hold back.Late in the afternoon, they walked along the beach, their hands intertwined as they gazed out at the endless horizon.Elijah glanced over at Sophia, his usual guarded expression softened.“You know,” he began, his voice low, “I never thought I’d have a moment like this. With someone like you.”Sophia looked up, smiling. “And what’s that supposed
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 122. The Attack
Sophia walked along the villa’s quiet path, enjoying the peaceful breeze, while Elijah had stepped away momentarily to handle a call.She hadn’t gone far from their suite when a voice called her name.“Sophia.”Startled, she turned to see Olivia, standing just beyond the pathway’s dim light, her face twisted with a mix of rage and cold determination.“Olivia?” Sophia’s voice trembled with surprise, her confusion laced with unease. “What… what are you doing here?”Olivia stepped closer, her eyes flashing with something fierce. “I came for answers, Sophia. And to warn you about the man you think you know.”Sophia took a hesitant step back, her heart pounding. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”“Of course, you don’t,” Olivia sneered, inching closer.“Elijah—or James, as he was with me—has been lying to you. Did he ever tell you about the promises he made to me? The plans we had together?” Her voice was like ice.Sophia’s hands clenched into fists. “Elijah and I don’t keep secrets,
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 123. Broken Truths
The silence in the room was thick, an unspoken tension settling between them as they returned to their suite.Sophia’s mind spun with Olivia’s accusations, the words replaying in fragments, twisting her understanding of Elijah’s past.Elijah noticed the shift in her gaze, the uncertainty that shadowed her usually bright expression. He took her hands gently, guiding her to sit down beside him.“Sophia,” he began, his voice soft but steady, “I know Olivia’s words… they were painful to hear. There are things in my past that I haven’t fully told you. I never wanted you to be burdened by them.”Sophia studied his face, seeing the traces of pain he h
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 124. Echoes of the Past
The morning sunlight bathed the quaint, bustling streets of the town as Elijah and Sophia strolled through hand in hand.The air was filled with the scent of freshly baked bread and the cheerful chatter of locals. It was peaceful—a welcome escape from their usual world of power plays and hidden dangers.“Isn’t this nice?” Sophia murmured, glancing at him with a soft smile. “Just us, a little normalcy for once.”Elijah squeezed her hand, his own smile relaxed but fleeting.“It is,” he agreed, though there was an edge of distraction in his tone. His gaze flicked around as if on guard, yet she knew it wasn’t the typical vigilance he held.As they turned a corner, Sophia noticed his expression change, his eyes narrowing as his jaw tightened.Standing across the square was an elderly man surrounded by a small entourage, speaking with the townsfolk who greeted him with a mix of admiration and respect.His presence commanded the space, his stature as imposing as his silver hair was distincti
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 125. I'm Yours
Elijah stirred restlessly in his sleep, his brow furrowed.The room around him darkened, shifting into the smoke-filled remnants of his childhood home.Flames licked up the walls, casting a horrific glow as they ate away at everything familiar. His heart pounded as he watched the destruction unfold, powerless to stop it, every sound swallowed by the crackling fire.“No… stop!” he whispered in his sleep, clutching at his blanket as though trying to shield himself.A loud crash echoed in his dream, and he bolted upright, his chest heaving. The bedroom was dark, silent. The only sound was his own labored breathing.“Elijah?” Sophia’s soft voice broke through his haze, bringing him back to the present. She placed a gentle hand on his arm, worry filling her eyes as she searched his face. “What happened? You looked… frightened.”Elijah exhaled deeply, running a hand over his face. “It was just… memories,” he said, his voice strained. “I saw the fire… my home…”Sophia’s eyes softened, and sh
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 126. Only You
“You’re beautiful, you know that?” Elijah whispered, his fingers gently brushing a strand of hair away from Sophia’s face as he held her gaze. His eyes shone with admiration and warmth.Sophia’s cheeks flushed as she laughed, her arms wrapped around his neck. “Says the one who has everyone swooning over him,” she teased, tilting her head up to meet his eyes, a playful smile dancing on her lips. “If anyone’s breathtaking, it’s you.”Elijah chuckled, leaning closer until their foreheads touched, his voice a soft murmur, “Are you trying to charm me, Mrs. Norton?” His hand traced a tender line along her arm, and she shivered under his touch.“Is it working?” she whispered, her fingers drifting to trace the contours of his face like she was memorizing each line and angle.“Always,” he replied, his breath warm against her skin as he tilted her chin, pressing a feather-light kiss to her jaw. “You have no idea how much.”She sighed, her hands moving down to rest on his shoulders as he pressed
