Abigail stood still. Her eyes lingered on Kai, scanning him with quiet suspicion. He didn’t look powerful. He didn’t dress like a man the city feared. He didn’t carry himself like someone who just brought the most powerful wedding in Dominus City to its knees. But Elara had bowed to him. And no one...not even Reginald's so-called elite friends...dared question it. She tilted her head slightly. "Who are you, really?" Kai chuckled lightly. Not mockingly. . .just tired amusement. "Just a guy who won a bet." Abigail raised a brow. "That’s it? You’re telling me Elara Vasquez...Dominus City’s coldest queen...bowed to you... because of a bet?" Kai shrugged. "She lost. She owed me one." Behind him, Elara caught on. Her master didn’t want eyes on him. Not now. "Exactly," she said, stepping forward smoothly. Her expression was unreadable, calm. "It was a joke. A small act. We like messing with people sometimes. No need to take it seriously." Abigail blinked. Then exhaled.

The night air was gentle and warm. Kai stepped out of the black sedan, adjusting his cuffs as the headlights cut through the entrance of the towering banquet hall. Marble steps stretched before him, flanked by flaming braziers and guards in tailored suits. He didn’t pause to admire the architecture. He had already seen better. The Directors’ Banquet...his grandfather’s so-called “official introduction to the world.” Things were moving fast. Too fast. One minute he found out his true identity, then just as he was still grasping the reality of everything, he was thrust into a crazy event, dealing with lunatics in wedding gowns, the next he was expected to rub shoulders with the city’s most powerful figures. Fine. He would adapt. Two uniformed doormen spotted him and moved quickly, bowing low. “Welcome, Young Master Black...” “Stop.” Kai’s voice was quiet. But it held authority. Their backs straightened immediately. “No greetings. No names, no red carpets,” he
Unrivaled In The World: Rise of Kaiden Blackwood Chapter 13.
The moment Leonard laid eyes on the object in Damon’s hands, his pupils shrank. The packaging might’ve been peeled back, but the craftsmanship...the rare markings was unmistakable. That was his gift. The exact one he had painstakingly prepared to make a solid first impression on the rumored heir of the Atlas Blackwood family. An ancient treasure with enough silent power to speak volumes without a single word. And now it was paraded around like a party favor. Leonard’s heart jumped straight into his throat. Without a word, he leaned over and yanked the item from Damon’s grasp. “You bastard!” he barked. “Where did you get this?” Damon blinked, stunned. “W-What...?” Leonard didn’t wait. His fist swung fast. CRACK. The punch landed square on Damon’s face, splitting his lip and sending him stumbling backward into a table. “You damn clown!” Leonard thundered, advancing with another blow. “Do you have a death wish?” Damon clutched his bleeding lip, confusion and fear p

The guards lunged. Kai didn’t flinch. But just as rough hands reached for him... “Enough.” The command sliced through tension. Everyone turned. Morgan West was moving towards them. Impeccably dressed in black and silver, the tycoon’s presence alone forced the guards to halt. His sharp gaze swept over the chaos. “Leonard Vale,” Morgan said coolly, stepping forward. “You bring your dogs here to start a fight… on this night?” Leonard stiffened. “Morgan West… this is none of your damn business.” Morgan ignored the tone. “Do you even understand where you are?” His voice grew louder. “This isn’t your backyard. This isn’t your factory gate. This is a banquet held under the name of Atlas Blackwood.” The air tightened. Morgan stepped closer. “Men like us are lucky to even be here. You should be kissing the floor in gratitude. But instead, you're flexing your money muscles like some wild dog with rabies?” Leonard’s face darkened. “This is my matter. A thief tried to wa
Unrivaled In The World: Rise of Kaiden Blackwood Chapter 15.
A suffocating silence took hold of the banquet hall. Not a breath. Not a whisper. Everyone's eyes were glued to the man standing before Atlas Blackwood… the so-called waiter, now revealed to be his grandson. Was this a joke or does the young man have a death wish? Leonard staggered a step back. His mouth trembled. He forced out a broken laugh and turned to Atlas, voice hoarse. “S-Sir Atlas… who is this man?” Atlas didn’t respond at first. He looked down on Leonard with the cold disdain of a man who had just stepped on something filthy. Then he spoke, calm and cutting. “He is Kaiden Blackwood,” he said, letting every syllable pierce the room. “My grandson. And the reason you’re all standing here tonight. The protagonist of this banquet.” A collective gasp swept through the hall. Some mouths dropped open. Others quickly shut in fear of showing the wrong expression. Whispers exploded. “Oh my god...” “He’s the heir?!” “That’s the guy everyone’s been waiting for?

The Laurent residence was soaked in silence, save for the occasional groan of pain, frustration and anger. Astrid collapsed on the couch, her face swollen, her hair tangled. Every breath hurt, every limb throbbed. Her dress, once white and flawless, was now stained and torn like a symbol of her disgrace. Tonight was supposed to be her day, how did things go so wrong?! Sage sat on the floor, shirt torn, one hand clutching his ribs. “Damn it,” he muttered. “My whole body feels like it got hit by a truck.” Vivian paced the room, her heels clicking like a ticking time bomb. Her face was pale, but rage still shimmered in her eyes. “This family...completely humiliated. On the biggest day of our lives.” She spun toward Sage. “All because of that bastard...Kai.” Sage winced. “Mom... I think we really messed up.” He looked up, genuine fear in his bruised eyes. “I heard it... with my own ears and I'm sure you heard it too. Elara...Elara Vasquez...she called him ‘Master.’ Not ‘Sir.’
Unrivaled In The World: Rise of Kaiden Blackwood Chapter 17.
After returning home from the banquet, Kai Blackwood stepped into his quiet penthouse and locked the door behind him. The city lights poured in through the tall windows, but the silence inside was louder. For a moment, he just stood there recalling the huge change his life underwent in less than 24 hours. The adrenaline that had carried him through the chaos, the confrontations, the power plays...it all began to bleed out of his system. He walked slowly through the sleek, dimly lit living room, eyes skimming over the skyline. Dominus City gleamed in the distance, bold and ruthless, much like the people who ruled it. But his mind wasn’t on the view. He headed to the kitchen, grabbed a glass, and filled it with water. The cold condensation clung to his fingers. He didn’t drink it. Instead, his grandfather’s words rang again...low and heavy in his head. “Before you were born, the family arranged a marriage for you. She’s from one of the old circles. The John family. Her name
Unrivaled In The World: Rise of Kaiden Blackwood Chapter 18: A Blackwood Never Owes a Debt.
Abigail Alfred sat stiffly on the cream leather couch, arms folded, legs crossed, chin slightly lifted in that signature aristocratic tilt she always wore when her patience was hanging by a thread. Her aunt’s voice buzzed beside her like a persistent mosquito and she badly wanted to swat her away. “This one’s not like the others, Abigail. He’s from the Gyrix Group’s subsidiary. A department manager! Do you know how hard it is to find someone from that circle willing to consider marriage these days?” Abigail didn’t even glance her way. She was too busy controlling the urge to roll her eyes into another dimension. A manager? From a subsidiary? Oh please. If he was so fantastic, why hadn't Auntie dearest thrown her own precious daughter at him? Oh right. Because when it came to fortune and social ladders, Aunt Matilda didn’t share the good crumbs. She kept them for her little princess and shoved the leftovers at Abigail. She glanced around the enormous sitting room, notin

29: The Warning Unheard
Kai stood still, his hand twitching faintly at his side, the burning in his right eye finally fading to a low throb. Emily’s words had already lost meaning. He had seen too much. Whatever was wrong with her, it wasn’t normal.“You need to get yourself checked,” he said, his voice flat but heavy with certainty.Emily blinked, caught off guard. Her expression wavered between confusion and irritation. “Excuse me?”Abigail’s brows furrowed as she looked between them. Kai rarely spoke, let alone this seriously. His words weren’t casual. They were final, almost like a sentence handed down by someone who’d already seen the end. “Kai… what’s going on?”He didn’t answer her directly. His eyes stayed fixed on Emily.“There’s something wrong with your internal energy flow. Your vital points are unstable, especially near your chest and spine. I saw it.”Emily’s brows furrowed. “What are you even talking about? Are you one of those scam psychics?”Kai’s face didn’t shift. “You’ve had night sweats
28: The Vision.
Kai gradually regained control over his body, the overwhelming surge of energy that had once threatened to rip him apart now simmered, calming down. The searing heat in his veins faded into a distant throb, and the sharp pain that had pulsed behind his right eye dulled into a manageable ache. He still felt drained, like someone had wrung every cell dry but at least he could sit upright without feeling like the world would collapse around him.Abigail was by his side instantly, slipping an arm behind his back and helping him sit up.“You okay, now?” she asked gently.Kai gave a slow nod.He didn't speak. He hadn’t said much since waking up. His thoughts were tangled, his body ached in ways he couldn't explain, and the strange surge that had overtaken him last night still throbe through every nerve. He was focused on that. Only that.The door creaked open, and the attending doctor stepped in with a clipboard in hand. His brows lifted the second he saw Kai awake.“You’re conscious?” th
27: The Eye That Sees All
Kai's eyes flashed open. A harsh, sterile light seared his vision, and a jolt of pain arched through his body. His muscles screamed with fatigue, each breath a reminder of what he’d unleashed back at the club. His bones felt too heavy, his skin too tight. He wasn’t just tired, he was drained. Everything ached. Especially his head… and more strangely, his right eye. It throbbed deep in its socket, pulsing like it had a life of its own. He winced and groaned softly trying to figure out just what was wrong with him. “Kaiden?” Abigail’s voice called beside him, sharp with worry. She had been sitting by his bedside the entire time and instantly leaned closer. “You’re awake! Are you okay? Should I call the doctor?” He shook his head weakly, his voice low and cracked. “No… I’m fine.” That was a lie. He felt like death warmed over and all he wanted to do was lose consciousness again so all the pain would go away. But seeing the concern on her face, he didn’t have the he
26:The Monster Within
Abigail was trembling, panic bursting in her chest as she stared at the chaos. She couldn’t stop crying, couldn’t stop screaming his name. “Kai...please! Please stop! You’ll kill them!” But he wasn’t listening. He couldn’t. Kai stood in front of the crumpled bodies of Conrad and Reginald, his fists soaked in blood, his chest rising and falling like a caged beast. His entire body radiated heat...violent, unstable heat. His veins glowed faintly under his skin, and the air around him was vibrating. She could see it. Feel it. The burn in her palm still stung. He was gone. Whatever part of him was still human… was buried under the madness. Kai could hear her...her sobs, her pleas but it was distant, like echoes inside a dark tunnel. The bloodlust, the pain, the humiliation they had caused... it surged through him, adding fuel to a fire that refused to burn out. Conrad whimpered, barely conscious, his hand dragging feebly on the floor. Reginald was slumped against the wall,
25: Kai Unleashed.
Just a second before Conrad's belt fully unfastened, the door exploded open. Bang! The noise startled the two scumbags, but before they could even turn their heads fully...Kai was already inside. His eyes took in the scene in an instant...Abigail’s torn clothes, her trembling form slumped against the couch, tear-stained and barely conscious. Her eyes fluttered open weakly and locked on him. “Kai…” That broken whisper was all it took. Something inside him snapped. His pupils dilated, the veins in his neck bulged, and the room’s air warped. A visible shockwave blasted outward from his body, knocking back furniture. The glass chandelier above trembled violently, cracking at the edges. Conrad turned around, stunned. “What the f—” He never finished. Kai’s figure vanished in a blur of motion. The next second, Conrad’s body bent unnaturally as Kai's fist collided with his ribs with an explosive crunch. The man’s body was flung across the room, crashing into a cabinet that
24: Drugged.
(THIS IS AN EXPLICIT SCENE, PLEASE MOVE TO THE NEXT CHAPTER IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE IT, THANKS.) The room reeked of alcohol and sin. Abigail's head throbbed. Her limbs were heavy, her vision blurred. Something was wrong. Her throat was dry like sandpaper, and the heat crawling under her skin wasn’t natural. She struggled to sit up, but her body refused to obey. Across the room, laughter. Conrad Lin. He wasn’t drunk. He wasn’t high. He was waiting. Her family had collapsed one by one, slumped over the table or against plush leather couches, unconscious from the drug-laced wine he had poured with fake smiles and false sincerity. Abigail had taken only a few sips, but it was enough to dull her defenses. Now she was cornered. Conrad stood in front of her, tie loose, breath heavy. The grin on his face wasn’t amused anymore. It was hungry. "Tch," he clicked his tongue, looking over the passed-out bodies. "Useless lot. Wasn't after them anyway." He turned to Abigail. She tr
23: The Invitation That Reeked
After stepping out of the Luricor building, Kaiden Blackwood glanced sideways at Abigail Alfred. She looked more relaxed now, her cheeks flushed with victory. For the first time all day, she smiled without tension and he was glad he was able to help her. “I owe you a meal,” Kai said, hands tucked into his pockets, his voice low, "A congratulatory meal." Abigail smiled and opened her mouth to answer but just then, her phone buzzed. She frowned. “My mom.” Kai nodded for her to pick up. “Hello?” Abigail answered. On the other end, her mother’s voice was unusually sweet. Too sweet. “Hello my darling, sorry I'm disturbing but it's really urgent, so Conrad Lin wants to apologize. He invited us to dinner tonight and we have very little time to get ready, please head home soon.” Abigail blinked. “Conrad?” “Yes,” her mother continued. “He even asked your Aunt Matilda to mediate. You know how awkward it’d be if we refused. He says it’s just a simple dinner. No drama.” Abigail
22:Public Execution
The Luricor lobby was a full-blown circus. Reginald was still shouting like a madman, jabbing his finger toward Abigail and Kai. “They bribed him! That’s how they stole my project!” he roared. “This is slander! I worked for that deal!” People gathered, murmurs swelling. “Isn’t that the guy from the wedding scandal?” “Same one. The fiancée who got beat up and the fake gift drama...” “Now he’s crying corruption? The irony’s too much.” As the whispers grew louder, the elevator dinged. The noise dropped instantly. Thane Jackson stepped out, surrounded by assistants and two suited security guards. His expression was cold, razor-sharp, like a man used to cutting heads without lifting a blade. The moment he saw the scene, he didn’t even blink. “Call the police,” he told the secretary beside him. “Now.” Reginald’s roar died in his throat. Thane pointed straight at him. “I just got the internal report. Reginald Thompson. It was your company that conspired with Conrad Lin
21:When the Dust Settles, The Tables Turn
Reginald had been restless all morning. Ever since the wedding fiasco, his mood had been foul, his calls unreturned, and his ego bruised. Still convinced that Kaiden was just a lucky bastard who happened to win a bet, Reginald wasn’t too worried. But there was one name that haunted him, Elara Vasquez. If she really was close to that loser, and if she truly meant the things she said that day... he could be in trouble. He had to confirm something. “Get dressed,” he told Astrid sharply, tossing her a purse. Astrid frowned. “Where are we going?” “To Luricor. I need to see Conrad. If he’s still working there, that means the cooperation is safe.” “But you’ve been calling him for hours...” “And I’m done waiting,” Reginald snapped. Soon, they arrived at the sleek glass building of Luricor, one of the Gyrix Group’s most important subsidiaries. Inside the lobby, Reginald marched up to the front desk, dragging Astrid behind him like a disheveled accessory. “We’re here to see
