The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 137. Unveiling Desire
The moonlight filtered through the curtains of their bedroom, casting a soft glow across the room. Elijah sat on the edge of the bed, his fingers lightly brushing against Sophia’s. She sat beside him, her expression warm yet introspective. “I never imagined things would be like this,” Sophia said softly, her voice filled with vulnerability. “Knowing what happened to you, to your family… it makes me want to fight even harder for us.” Elijah turned to her, his gaze steady. “You’ve given me something I thought I lost a long time ago—hope. Sophia, I never thought I’d feel this connected to anyone.” Her cheeks flushed slightly as she smiled, leaning closer. “You don’t have to carry everything alone anymore. Let me share the weight.” Elijah gently cupped her cheek, his thumb brushing her skin. “You already do, more than you know.” Their lips met in a slow, passionate kiss that deepened with each passing moment. Elijah’s hands slipped around her waist, pulling her closer as Sophia’
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 138. Whispers of the Past
The early morning sun filtered through the canopy of trees, casting soft, golden light on the secluded clearing where Elijah and Sophia had retreated for some quiet time. The air was crisp, and the world seemed to slow as they sat together on a picnic blanket, a rare moment of peace. “I needed this,” Sophia said, leaning into Elijah’s side. Her hand rested on his arm as she traced small patterns with her fingertips. “Sometimes it feels like we’re constantly fighting the world.” Elijah glanced down at her, a soft smile tugging at his lips. “We are. But moments like this remind me why it’s worth it.” Sophia tilted her head to look at him. “And what’s that?” He reached out, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. “You.” Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she laughed. “You’re far too smooth for your own good, Mr. Norton.” “Only for you, Mrs. Norton,” he teased, his voice low and warm. Their laughter faded into comfortable silence as the wind rustled the leaves around them. So
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 139. The Secret Letter
Elijah sat at his desk in the study, the letter spread out before him. His eyes scanned the elegant handwriting, searching for hidden meaning. Sophia stood beside him, her arms crossed, her brow furrowed in concentration. “What do you think it means?” Sophia asked, her voice low. Elijah tapped the paper lightly. “It’s cryptic, but the phrasing suggests a specific location. ‘Where the truth began.’ It must be tied to the Thompson Accord or the early days of the Nortons’ downfall.” Sophia leaned over the desk, her fingers brushing against Elijah’s. “If it’s tied to the Accord, then it has to be somewhere significant to all the families involved.” Elijah nodded. “Agreed. Doug’s looking into potential locations. This letter—whoever sent it—wants me to find something. The question is, why now?” Sophia straightened, her expression resolute. “Because they know we’re getting close. The more we uncover, the more desperate they’ll become.” Elijah reached for her hand, pulling her ge
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 140. Shadows of the Accord
The warehouse loomed ahead, its broken windows and rusted exterior whispering tales of a bygone era. Elijah stepped out of the car, his eyes scanning the surroundings for any signs of movement. Sophia followed closely, wrapping her coat tightly around herself against the biting wind. “This place…” she whispered, her voice carrying an edge of unease. “It feels like it’s been waiting for us.” Elijah nodded, his expression unreadable. “That’s what worries me.” They pushed open the creaking metal door, the sound echoing ominously in the vast, empty space. The dim light filtering through the cracked ceiling revealed scattered crates, old machinery, and faded paperwork strewn across the floor. “Start looking for anything tied to the Accord,” Elijah instructed. “This place may hold answers, but it could also be a trap. Stay close.” Sophia nodded, her eyes scanning the room as she moved to the nearest table. The surface was covered in ledgers and notes, their ink faded but still leg
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 141. Love in the Crossfire
Elijah paced the study, his hands clenched tightly around the piece of paper bearing Ethan Donald’s signature. The room felt heavy with the weight of revelations, and his thoughts churned as he considered the implications. When the door opened, and Sophia stepped in, her gaze immediately found the document in his hands. “You found something,” she said softly, closing the door behind her. Elijah nodded, turning to face her fully. “It’s a contract… signed by Ethan.” His voice was steady, but the pain in his eyes was unmistakable. “Your grandfather was part of the alliance that destroyed my family.” Sophia’s breath hitched, her hand covering her mouth as she absorbed his words. “No… Elijah, I… I didn’t know.” He stepped forward, placing the paper gently on the desk. “Sophia, this changes nothing between us. I know you’re
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 142. Fire and Fury
The air around Arthur Palace buzzed with tension as the first waves of Kate Winter’s forces descended. Explosions rattled the estate, and Elijah stood at the forefront, commanding his men with precision. His voice carried above the chaos, calm but firm, rallying his team. “Position the sentries on the east wall,” Elijah ordered Doug, his eyes scanning the horizon. “We can’t let them breach the main courtyard.” Doug nodded, gripping his comms device tightly. “On it. But, Marshal, the numbers don’t look good. They’re hitting us with everything they’ve got.” Elijah’s gaze hardened. “Then we’ll hit harder.” Sophia emerged from the main hall, her face a mix of determination and concern. “I want to help,” she said, approaching Elijah. “Sophia, no,” Elijah replied immediately, stepping toward her. “I need you safe.” “I can’t just sit back while they tear through our home,” she insisted, her tone unwavering. “I’m not leaving you to fight this alone.” Elijah hesitated, torn betwe
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 143. The Last Stand
The night sky above Arthur Palace was ablaze with fire and chaos as Elijah faced Kate Winter in a final standoff. Her smirk held no fear, only a cold determination that matched the steel glint in her eyes.“You’ve fought well, Elijah,” Kate taunted, circling him with a blade in hand. “But do you really think you can erase the past? You’ll never bring back what you’ve lost.”Elijah tightened his grip on his weapon, his voice calm but firm. “I’m not fighting for the past. I’m fighting for the future—and to end people like you.”Their blades clashed, the sharp ring of steel piercing the night. Kate was fast, her strikes fueled by anger and desperation. Elijah counte
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 144. A New Revelation
The aftermath of Kate Winter’s death left an eerie calm at Arthur Palace. Elijah stood by the window in his study, staring out at the fading embers of the battle. The memory of Kate’s final words replayed in his mind like a haunting melody: ~The Lava’s Heart… it’s the key.Doug entered quietly, holding a tablet. “I’ve been digging into Kate’s claims,” he began, his tone serious. “It wasn’t just talk. Mary Shaw… she’s alive. Our doubt about her death after Duke West was wrong. And she’s been busy.” Elijah turned, his expression sharpening. “Where is she?” “Secluded estate outside Evendore,” Doug replied. “It’s heavily fortified, almost like she was expecting you to come eventually.” Elijah clenched his fists, the years of suppressed anger bubbling beneath the surface. “She knew this day would come. She’s the last piece of this puzzle, Doug. The Lava’s Heart—everything ties back to her.” Doug nodded but hesitated. “Elijah, are you sure you’re ready for this? Facing her might not
