The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 73. The Seeds of Deception
Elijah sat in his study, his fingers tapping rhythmically on the desk as he reviewed the information Doug had uncovered. The files scattered before him painted a grim picture.Duke West wasn’t just a simple rival—he was deeply embedded in the power structure of Evendore from the start. It was especially, being the competitive Marshals of South and West. And now, it seemed, he had old ties to the Winters, especially Olivia's family.Doug stood by Elijah’s side, pointing out the key connections."Marshal, it’s clear. Duke West has been working closely with the Winters for years, helping them expand their influence in ways we didn’t even suspect."Elijah's jaw tightened as he scanned the documents."I underestimated how far back this runs. Duke West has used these alliances to strengthen his grip while destabilizing anyone who threatens him.""Exactly," Doug said."We know now that his plan to eliminate you started long before Zack Shaw’s downfall. The Winters were just another piece in h
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 74. Shadows of the Past
Elijah sat at his desk, the dim light casting shadows on the stacks of documents that surrounded him.For hours, he had been poring over old files, digging into the murky past of Mary Shaw and her false accusations that had once shattered the Norton family. But the deeper he looked, the more lies and manipulation he uncovered.The accusations Mary had made weren’t just a tool to discredit his grandfather—they were part of a larger conspiracy.All four major families had been involved, their hands dirty with deceit.Each one had played a role in bringing down the Nortons, weakening them so that they could seize control of the family's wealth and power.Elijah clenched his fists as he read through the details.His grandfather had been framed for a crime he didn’t commit, and the other families had worked together to destroy everything his family had built.Worse, Duke West’s rise to power had been directly linked to Mary Shaw’s lies. She had been a pawn, used to push Duke further into t
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 75. The Gathering Storm
Elijah moved swiftly through the dark alleyways, his face obscured by a sleek black mask.The night was silent, but his mind was anything but. Tonight, he would confront Mary Shaw—the woman who had played a pivotal role in the destruction of the Norton family.She had lied about his grandfather, accusing him of crimes he hadn’t committed, and now Elijah needed the truth. Not for revenge alone, but to dismantle the alliances built on those lies.Arriving at a secluded warehouse, Elijah saw her waiting nervously by the door.Mary had been summoned, unaware of who would meet her. She came here due to the blackmailing messages from an unknown resource. When she saw the masked figure approaching, her fa
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 76. Ties That Bind
Sophia sat at her desk, staring blankly at the screen in front of her. The work she had been doing on the Lando Yale billion-dollar project was important, yet it felt empty.Her family’s constant pressure weighed heavily on her, especially her grandfather Ethan’s demands for more. No matter how hard she worked, it never seemed to be enough.Her phone rang, snapping her out of her thoughts. She glanced at the caller ID—Ethan Donald. With a sigh, she answered.“Sophia,” her grandfather’s voice boomed through the line, not even waiting for her to say hello.“We need to discuss your performance. The Lando Yale project is fine. It was the turning point for us, but it’s not enough. The Donald family needs more than that.”“I’m doing everything I can,” Sophia replied, her voice tight. “This project is massive, and it’s—”“Massive isn’t enough,” Ethan interrupted.“You’ve been away too long. Your absence is making people question your commitment. I need you back in full capacity. Get out ther
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 77. The Gala of Shadows
Elijah, dressed in his James Hamesworth persona, stepped into the lavish ballroom, his sharp eyes scanning the crowd.The grand chandeliers cast a golden glow over the room, where the elite of Arthurton mingled, exchanging secrets behind polite smiles.But Elijah wasn’t here for the pleasantries. This was a battlefield, and every word, every glance could be a weapon.Olivia appeared beside him, her hand slipping into his arm with a smile that barely hid her excitement.She wore a shimmering, deep red gown that clung to her frame, drawing the attention of nearly every man in the room. But her eyes were only on Elijah.“I’m glad
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 78 Hidden Agendas
The ballroom hummed with low conversations and clinking glasses, but Elijah’s focus was razor-sharp.Every movement, every whispered word was under his scrutiny. His mask of calm, as James Hamesworth, remained intact as he lingered near Duke West and William Winter, listening intently to their conversation.They were standing near a large marble pillar, their voices low but just audible enough for Elijah to catch snippets of their plans.“Evendore will bow to us,” William said, his tone dripping with ambition.His eyes gleamed as he took a sip of champagne. “Once we secure Lando Yale’s holdings and consolidate the remaining Shaw properties, no one will stand in our way.”Duke West nodded, though his face was grim. “Power comes with sacrifice, William. Remember that. We don’t just need business leverage. We need military might. This city will only stay under control if we crush the weak.”William chuckled, adjusting his suit jacket. “Which is why I’m relying on you, Duke. You’ve got th
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 79. A Storm Brews
Elijah entered Arthur Palace late in the evening, his steps slowing as he approached Sophia’s room. He could feel the weight of the day settling on his shoulders.Battles fought on multiple fronts were exhausting, but his biggest concern remained with the woman he loved. Sophia sat by the window, her face illuminated by the soft glow of the setting sun. She looked stronger, her physical recovery evident, but the emotional toll still showed in the way her shoulders slumped slightly and the distant look in her eyes.Elijah approached quietly, placing a hand on her shoulder. "How are you feeling?"Sophia sighed, her fingers tracing the edge of the windowpane. "Physically, I’m getting there. But..." Her voice trailed off, her gaze still fixed on the horizon."It’s just everything else, Elijah. My family—they don’t care about my health. All they see is the business, the money. My mother, May, is constantly nagging me about getting more money. Grandfather is pressuring me to sign more cont
The Unstoppable Dragon Marshal 80. The Battle for Control
Elijah sat at the head of his study table, the weight of his plans settling over him like a thick fog. The message he had received about Duke West and William Winter had been clear. They were preparing to strike, and Elijah knew the confrontation was no longer avoidable.He leaned back in his chair, his eyes scanning the scattered papers detailing the Winters’ business operations and Duke West’s moves. Doug stood in the doorway, waiting for instructions.“I need more intel on Duke West,” Elijah said, his tone sharp.“Every move he makes, every business deal he’s involved in—I want to know about it. We can’t afford to be blindsided.”Doug nodded. “Understood, Marshal. I’ve already set up surveillance, but I’ll dig deeper. I’ll have a report for you by the end of the day.”“Good,” Elijah replied, his gaze drifting toward the window.“And keep a closer eye on the Winters. Something tells me they’re not far behind Duke West in this.” Doug left without another word, and Elijah remained i
