The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 265. Allies in the Shadows
“We can’t do this alone,” Elijah said, his voice firm as he stood at the head of the table. The room was filled with resistance leaders, each representing a group willing to stand against the Quinn family. “If we don’t work together, the Quinn family will continue to thrive in the shadows.”One man, burly and scarred, crossed his arms. “Marshal, we’ve heard promises before. What makes you different?”Sophia stepped forward, her calm yet commanding presence drawing every gaze. “Because we’ve lived through their cruelty,” she said. Her voice was steady but filled with emotion. “I’ve been betrayed by my own family, but I stand here because people like you gave me hope. This isn’t just about revenge—it’s about justice.”The room fell silent, her words resonating deeply.Elijah nodded, adding, “The Quinn family has manipulated this country for too long. We’ve already dismantled part of their operation. With your help, we can finish the job.”A woman at the far end of the table leaned forwa
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 1. The Unexpected Combination
Elijah Norton woke up early in the morning.He felt something soft in his left hand, so he turned his head to the left and discovered a woman with a veil lying beside him.His left hand was gripping her... Elijah subconsciously pinched it.Sophia Donald was startled awake by the pinch, realizing she was completely naked except for the veil on her face."Ah!" Her scream echoed throughout the hotel.Breathless with fear, she clutched the bed sheets tightly to cover her body and slowly moved back to distance herself from Elijah."Who... who are you? What did you do to me?" Sophia asked anxiously."My name is Elijah. It seems we've done everything a young couple can do," Elijah shrugged casually."How could you do this to me? You violated me; you're a criminal!" Sophia was both angry and embarrassed, but more than that, she felt wronged. Tears welled up in her eyes as her voice trembled."That's not true! You were the one who made the first move last night!" Elijah defended himself."No w
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 2. Trapped in the Nightmare
"What a small world! This is the fate between us, Sophia" Elijah murmured to himself.He never expected that the woman he had been searching for had just slept right beside him the night before."Sophia, you saved me ten years ago. Now, it's my turn to save you!" Thinking of her difficult situation, Elijah resolved in his heart to make her the happiest woman in the world."Doug, head to the Donald family!""Yes, Dragon Marshal!" ... ... Sophia walked up the steps to the Donald family mansion, her legs feeling like lead.Her heart pounded in her chest, dread settling in her stomach like a stone. She pushed open the door and stepped inside, only to be met with a room full of angry faces.Her fiancé, Alan Shaw, stood at the front, his arms crossed, staring at her, like a predator sizing up its prey.The rest of the family members filled the room, their eyes like daggers, full of judgment and contempt.At the head of the table was Ethan Donald, who's the family patriarch and Sophia's g
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 3. The Start of Something New
"Who dares to cause trouble here?!" Ethan bellowed, his face red with fury.Elijah's gaze fixed on him, steady and fearless, saying confidently, "I do!” His voice calm and commanding, carrying an authority that made everyone in the room tense up."And if you lay another finger on her, you'll regret it."The room fell silent.All the members of the Donald family were in disbelief that someone had barged into their home and threatened them.Who was he? What was he doing here?Suddenly, Reno recognized him and shouted, "It's you!"He then pointed at Elijah and yelled excitedly at Ethan, "Grandpa, he's the one who had an affair with Sophia—the culprit behind the breakdown of our alliance with the Shaw family!""Guards, come quickly and capture this guy!" Reno shouted, trying to summon the guards to seize Elijah.Elijah crossed his arms and scoffed, "No need to waste your effort; the guards outside have already been taken care of by me."Everyone stared at Elijah, sensing the danger he rad
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 4. A New Beginning
Sophia stared in disbelief as the car pulled up in front of a massive, elegant villa."This… this is where you live?" she asked, her voice filled with awe.Elijah glanced at her and nodded."Arthur Palace," he said casually. "Home, for now."He loved Sophia’s bewildered state.Sophia’s eyes widened as she took in the towering pillars, the sprawling gardens, and the grand entrance. She had never seen anything like it."I thought… I thought you were just some arrogant soldier," she muttered.It’s not that she was from a poor family but it was more than her expectations.Elijah smirked."A soldier, yes. But arrogant? Maybe," he said with a shrug."I like to keep people guessing. Come inside."He encouraged Sophia to walk ahead.Sophia felt the cool air as they stepped in and smelled the fresh flowers that decorated the luxurious interior. She couldn’t help but feel out of place."Why are you helping me?" she asked cautiously."You don’t even know me," her voice was mixed with surprise.As
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 5. A Challenge for Honor
The morning sun streamed through the window as Elijah and Sophia stood before a modest altar, their hands clasped together.The ceremony was simple but heartfelt. Sophia’s heart pounded in her chest."I do," she whispered, her voice steady with determination.Elijah's eyes met hers."I do," he said firmly, sealing their vows.After the ceremony, they returned to the Donald family home where Sophia's father, Bob, lived in a small, worn-down wing of the estate.His influence in the family was minimal, and it showed in his modest surroundings.Sophia's eyes were saddened at the sight."Father," she called softly, approaching him.Bob looked up, his eyes dull."Sophia?" he mumbled, his voice weak.He hadn’t expected her to visit, let alone look so radiant."I’m back, Father," Sophia said, smiling warmly."And I’m married now."Bob’s eyes widened."Married? To him?" he asked, glancing at Elijah with a mix of confusion and fear.Elijah nodded, stepping forward."Yes, sir. I’m Elijah Norton,
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 6. The First Steps of Revenge
Sophia paced nervously around the room, her hands twisting together."How are we supposed to do this, Elijah? The Yale Group is a multinational corporation. Why would they even look at us?" she muttered, her voice filled with doubt.Elijah leaned against the wall, arms crossed, his expression calm."Stop worrying," he said softly."We’ve got this."Sophia shook her head, still unconvinced."You don’t understand," she said."I know someone there, a high school classmate. Maybe she can help… but it’s a long shot."Elijah blinked."Contact her. It’s worth a try," he encouraged."But I have my own way of handling things. Trust me, by tomorrow, the Yale Group will be begging to work with us."Sophia glanced at him, trying to read his confidence."How can you be so sure?" she asked, biting her lip.Elijah smiled."I’m the Dragon Marshal," he replied simply."And people tend to listen when I speak."Sophia took a deep breath."Alright," she said, nodding."I’ll try my way, and you do yours."
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 7. A Gift for the Shaws
"Ladies and gentlemen, a toast to my father, Rick Shaw, on his eightieth birthday!"Kobe Shaw raised his glass high, his voice booming through the grand hall.The crowd erupted in applause, a sea of elites gathered to honor the Shaw family patriarch. Everyone was so excited.Rick Shaw, seated at the head of the long banquet table, smiled with satisfaction.The grand chandelier above cast a golden glow on his wrinkled face, highlighting the pride in his eyes."Thank you all for being here," he said, his voice strong for his age."The Shaw family has always stood tall, and tonight is proof that we always will."Ethan Donald, standing near the table, stepped forward, his tone humble."Mr. Shaw, I must apologize for the recent troubles caused by my granddaughter," he said, bowing slightly."We are here to mend any rifts and assure our continued loyalty to the Shaw family."Rick Shaw nodded, his expression softening."Ethan, it's good to see you know where your loyalties lie," he replied."

264. The Secret Weapon
“They call it the ‘Pulse,’ Marshal,” said Dr. Everett, his voice trembling as he slid a set of blueprints across the table. The scientist was pale, his eyes darting nervously around the dimly lit safehouse. “It’s unlike anything I’ve ever worked on before.”Elijah studied the blueprints with sharp eyes, his jaw tightening as he understood the implications. The schematics showed a massive device capable of emitting an electromagnetic pulse strong enough to cripple Evendore’s infrastructure.“Why would they create something like this?” Sophia asked, leaning over Elijah’s shoulder to get a better look.“To control everything,” Dr. Everett replied, his voice barely above a whisper. “If they activate it, every communication, every defense system—gone. They’ll have the city in the palm of their hand.”Elijah looked up, his gaze piercing. “Where is it?”Dr. Everett hesitated, his hands shaking. “They’ve hidden it in a remote facility outside the city. But it’s heavily guarded. You won’t get
263. The Quinn Enforcer
“You’ve walked into my web, Marshal Norton,” Donovan Quinn said, his voice smooth and sharp like a blade. He stood at the center of a dimly lit warehouse, surrounded by armed men. His eyes were cold, calculating, as he watched Elijah and his team step cautiously through the door.Elijah’s gaze remained steady. "Your web looks fragile, Donovan. Let’s see how long it lasts."Donovan smirked. "You’ve underestimated the Quinn family for the last time."The room felt suffocating, the air thick with tension. Sophia’s hand rested lightly on her weapon, her eyes scanning every shadow. Doug stood at Elijah’s side, his posture relaxed but ready, his sharp eyes taking in every detail."Marshal, this place screams 'trap,'
262. The Web Unravels
"Marshal, you might want to see this," Doug said, crouching near the dusty remains of a desk in the abandoned estate. His voice held an uncharacteristic seriousness that caught Elijah’s attention immediately.Elijah stepped closer, his boots echoing against the hollow wooden floor. "What did you find, Doug?"Doug held up a faded parchment, its edges frayed and brittle. "Some kind of coded message. Looks like whoever was here wanted to keep their secrets buried."Sophia joined them, her eyes narrowing as she peered at the paper. "A cipher. These markings... they match some of the patterns I saw in The Warden's documents. This estate must have been more than just a hiding place."The team had been searching the abandoned Quinn family estate for hours. The building, a decrepit shadow of its former glory, was filled with the scent of mildew and forgotten time. Dust-coated chandeliers hung from the ceiling, swaying slightly with the breeze."Do you think the Quinns were funding The Warden?
261. A New Threat Emerges
“Elijah, are you seeing this?” Sophia’s voice trembled as she held the small radio device, the chilling message playing on repeat.“People of Evendore,” the distorted voice declared. “Your foundations are built on lies and corruption. We will tear them down and rebuild a new order. The Warden’s vision lives on.”Elijah’s jaw tightened. He reached out and turned the radio off. “I see it,” he said firmly. “And I hear it.”Doug entered the room, his face lined with concern. “Sir, it’s not just words. Several key infrastructure points were hit last night—power grids, communication towers. Whoever this is, they’re making their move.”
260. The Calm Before
“Do you think we’ve earned a break yet?” Sophia asked, leaning her head against Elijah’s shoulder as they sat around the campfire. The warmth of the flames danced across their faces, contrasting the cool night air.Elijah chuckled softly, wrapping an arm around her. “If anyone’s earned it, it’s you,” he replied. “But I have a feeling the world isn’t done throwing challenges our way.”Doug approached with three tin mugs in hand, his grin as wide as ever. “A toast to our fearless leaders,” he said, handing them each a cup. “And to the rare occasion of a quiet evening.”Sophia laughed, taking the mug. “Doug, you make it sound like we’re on vacation.”&ld
259. Rebuilding Trust
“Do you really think they’ll listen to me?” Sophia asked, her voice barely above a whisper. She stood in the heart of Evendore’s central square, her hands nervously gripping the edges of her cloak. The weight of the crowd’s gaze, even from afar, felt overwhelming.Elijah stepped closer, his eyes steady and unwavering as he placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder. “They will. Because you’re not just speaking for yourself. You’re speaking for every person who’s been wronged by your family. Show them the Sophia I know. The one who’s brave, strong, and unafraid to do what’s right.”Sophia took a deep breath, nodding slowly. “Alright. Let’s do this.”As the pair approached the platform, Doug’s voice broke the tension. “Marshal, this crowd’s bigger than expected. I’d say half the city’s turned up. Either they’re curious or they’re still deciding whether to throw tomatoes.”Elijah chuckled softly. “Let’s hope for the former.”Doug grinned but quickly straightened, adopting his usual profess
258. A Battle of Wills
“I knew you’d come,” Mark said, his voice echoing in the vast chamber of the Donald family’s stronghold. He stood near a console brimming with blinking lights and wires. The device in front of him hummed ominously. “But you’re too late.”Elijah stepped forward, his eyes sharp and unyielding. “Too late for what, Mark? Another one of your family’s desperate plays for power?”Sophia stood beside Elijah, her fists clenched. “This ends here, Mark. Whatever that thing is, you’re not using it to hurt anyone.”Mark chuckled, the sound low and bitter. “You think you can stop me? This device will plunge Evendore into chaos. Every city, every district will lose power. The elite you hate so much will cru
257. The Continuity of Betrayal
“You’ve led them right to us,” Elijah said, his voice colder than the night air. His eyes bore into Lily, who stood trembling at the edge of the clearing. Around them, the team was already forming a defensive line, weapons drawn and senses sharp.Lily took a shaky step back, her face pale. “I didn’t have a choice. Mark… he threatened me. He said he’d destroy everything if I didn’t help.”Sophia’s breath caught in her throat. “Lily, how could you?” Her voice cracked, the betrayal cutting deeper than any blade could. “After everything, I trusted you.”Lily’s eyes filled with tears. “I’m sorry, Sophia. I didn’t mean for it to go this far. I thought I could protect
