Five years ago, Ethan Maverick, once a promising young man, quietly disappeared from the world. The reason was simple but heartbreaking: he was being abused and mistreated, deemed a worthless son-in-law by those who should have cared for him. Enduring endless humiliation and hardship, he chose to leave, vanishing without a trace. No one knew where he went, and over time, his name faded into obscurity. However, time has a way of changing everything. Five years later, Ethan reappears—not as the broken man who once left, but as the "God of War," an unstoppable force whose name now commands fear and respect across the world. His return is marked by awe and disbelief, as the once discarded son-in-law now stands at the pinnacle of power and influence. But fate has one more surprise in store for him. Upon returning, Ethan is confronted with a truth he never knew existed—a daughter, a child he had no idea was his. This revelation shocks him to his core, but it also awakens a fierce protective instinct he never expected. As he looks at his wife and daughter, a wave of determination surges through him. He swears that no one will ever hurt them again. His heart, once shattered by betrayal and loss, now burns with an unyielding promise: to shield his family from the cruelty of the world. "I will bring you the greatest happiness and glory," he vows, his voice filled with unwavering resolve. No longer the man he once was, Ethan is a warrior reborn, and anyone who dares to threaten the ones he loves will face his wrath. With a heart full of purpose, he steps forward, ready to rewrite his destiny and give his wife and daughter the life they deserve.

    The price for Loyalty

    The wind howled as snowflakes gently covered the ground. Ethan Maverick tightened his coat and took one last look at the training ground he had come to know so well, the faces of those around him familiar yet filled with emotion. He drew in a deep breath and turned his gaze away."Let's go." Ethan walked toward the private jet waiting patiently on the tarmac, stepping up the hatch door. Behind him, rows of heavily muscled soldiers in uniform stood at attention, giving him a special military salute. Some were in tears at his departure, others relieved to be free from his relentless training, but all of them would miss his extraordinary combat skills that had helped them in countless battles. "Farewell from the Special Forces." "Farewell from the Navy." "Farewell from the Special Air Service."Without a word, Ethan boarded the jet, not turning back or acknowledging their farewells. To him, farewells carried too much weight and sorrow. The jet’s engines roared to life as Raymond cl

Something was wrong.She banged on the door desperately, but it wouldn’t budge. Frustrated, she kicked and pulled at the handle, hoping to catch the attention of the bodyguard.Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at her daughter. The state she was in broke her heart. She couldn’t believe what had happened. Just as she was about to continue her frantic attempts at the door, the bathroom door creaked open.Asper Stanley stepped out, wearing only a robe and rubbing his golden hair with a towel.

But she never imagined Asper could be so cruel, so twisted.A smug grin spread across Asper’s face as he approached her. “Of

    The Race against Time
    “Maya! Maya! Can you hear me?” Lauren shouted, desperately calling for her daughter.“Mummy, I want... Daddy. Maya shouldn’t die without knowing Daddy. Mummy, I want to sleep, and I want Daddy.”“Maya isn’t going to die, okay? Daddy will come soon, I promise.” Lauren spoke softly, trying to reassure her daughter.“No, Mummy, I want Daddy now,” Maya cried, tears streaming down her face as the pain overwhelmed her. She squirmed in her mother’s lap, struggling.“I’ll get him, but you need to stay still so I can remove the pin, alright?” Lauren said, trying to stay calm.“No! I want Daddy!” Maya’s voice cracked with desperation.Lauren, helpless and panicked, had no idea what to do. Where could she possibly find Ethan?

    A father's Regret
    Ethan was overwhelmed by a swirl of emotions as he rushed toward Miracle Hospital. If the call had truly come from his daughter, it meant Lauren had been pregnant before he left. His eyes widened in shock as the truth sank in.So... Lauren had been enduring mistreatment and harsh criticism while being pregnant? Did I really leave a pregnant woman all alone?He couldn't imagine all what she would have gone through.A sense of suffocation filled Ethan as his breathing became strained. The guilt weighed on him so heavily that he didn’t even realize when a tear fell down his cheek.He had been so selfish, so consumed by his own needs. While the Walkers might not have killed Lauren, he knew they could have mistreated her to the point where she might wish she were dead.On top of that, her mother seemed to care nothing for her well-being. She was only interested in the Walker family's wealth. Lauren was treated like a servant, while Katherine her step sister was treated as the favored child.

    Rescue at the last moment
    Lauren's fists clenched against the ropes that bound her. She couldn’t let this happen. Her mind raced, searching for any words she could say to Asper to save Maya. But in this moment of helplessness, all she could do was curse Ethan for abandoning her, for leaving her to fend for herself in this cruel place with their child."Why?" she whispered, her voice breaking. "Why did you leave me, Ethan? Why didn't you take us with you?" Her voice cracked under the weight of years of unanswered questions.Asper leaned in closer, his face twisting into a mocking smirk. "That’s not something you’ll ever get an answer to. He chose to run away and left you behind. And you… well, you’re just a pawn in this game now. I can manipulate you and your child as I wish."Tears streamed down Lauren’s face as she stared at him. She had nothing left to lose—nothing except Maya. And she would fight for her daughter’s life until her last breath."If you harm her, Asper, I swear to you, I will make you regret i

    Is that you, Ethan!
    Lauren felt a shadow fall over her, and she shivered. She couldn’t die now. Not when her daughter was still in the hospital.“Please, don’t kill me!” Her voice trembled with desperation. “I beg of you, don’t kill me! I have a daughter at the hospital. I’ll give you whatever you want—just let me go.”“Lauren, look at me.”The hoarse voice was unfamiliar, yet there was something about it that felt vaguely familiar. Why did it sound so much like...“Look at me,” the voice repeated, its tone more insistent.Lauren slowly raised her head, her heart pounding in her chest. She could hardly believe her eyes. “Ethan!” She gasped, her voice breaking with shock.The man standing before her had tanned skin, short black hair that was slightly tousled, adding to his rugged charm. His piercing blue eyes seemed to stare straight into her soul, and his strong jawline only accentuated his handsomeness. It was Ethan, without a doubt.“Is that really you, Ethan?” she whispered, her voice thick with disb

    The Luxurious Spring Estate
    Lauren grabbed the doctor’s collar harshly.“Why would you do that? Why the hell would you release my daughter to Asper’s men? Don’t you have security to call on?”“Calm down, Miss Lauren. We thought the man was her father,” the doctor replied, his voice shaking.“Her father, my foot!”Lauren turned swiftly toward Ethan, grabbing his hands. “You have soldiers with you, right? You have to save Maya—she’s probably somewhere in one of Asper’s houses. She has a pin stuck in her eyebrow and eyelashes together; she needs surgery as soon as possible!” Her voice trembled with panic.Ethan took a deep breath and placed his hands gently on her shoulders. “Listen to me, Lauren. I’m Maya’s father, aren’t I? So… Maya is with me.” He pointed to his chest, his voice calm but firm.“What? You… you…” Lauren faltered, speechless. The reality hit her hard. Ethan was the father the doctor had mentioned. But how did he know Maya was in the hospital?“Where is she?” Lauren demanded, her voice tight.“At my

    She isn't your daughter, Ethan.
    Lauren collapsed at her side, pulling Maya into a tight embrace, overwhelmed with emotion. Tears welled up in her eyes as she kissed Maya’s forehead, her heart swelling with relief. She had feared the worst when she heard that Ethan had taken Maya, but now seeing her daughter alive, her pain seemed to melt away. The weight on her chest lifted.She smoothed Maya’s hair and kissed her cheeks, unable to hold back the tears. Oh, how happy she was. How thankful she was. Words couldn’t capture the depth of her relief.“Maya!” Lauren cried out her daughter's name.Maya’s eyes fluttered open at the sound of her voice. “Mom?” she whispered, her voice weak and raspy.Lauren’s breath caught. “I’m here, sweetheart. I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry I wasn’t there sooner.”Tears welled up in her eyes as she squeezed Maya’s hand, brushing the hair from her daughter’s forehead. For a moment, all the questions and uncertainties faded into the background. Maya was here, safe. That was all that mattered.Etha

    Karma is Real
    Lauren shouted as tears poured down her face. Ethan rushed to her, pulling her into his arms."I’m sorry, Lauren. Deeply sorry. I regret everything. I didn’t know you were pregnant," he said, his voice full of remorse."Even if I wasn’t pregnant, does that make it right to leave me alone? To endure the maltreatment, the criticism, the ridicule? Do you have any idea what I’ve been through? What we went through? We went through hell, Ethan! If it hadn’t been for Maya, I would’ve ended it all. I would have died!""I never meant to hurt you. I didn’t. You are important to me, and we should have faced everything together. I should have taken you with me. I’m sorry—deeply sorry.""Take your hands off me." Lauren pushed away from him, her voice cold. "Your apologies won’t change anything, nor will they bring justice for everything we've suffered.""I know." Ethan's tone hardened. "I promise you, those who hurt you and our daughter will not go unpunished."Lauren raised an eyebrow, her expres
