Outside the state’s judiciary residence, where Mr. Justin, Chief Justice of [State Branch], resided, the street was eerily quiet. Raymond and Henry sat in their car, the engine humming faintly, both smoking in contemplative silence. Raymond flicked his cigarette out of the window, nodding to Henry.“Let’s do this,” Raymond muttered as he stepped out of the car.The two approached the grand yet modest house, its white exterior showing the slight wear of time. Henry knocked sharply, the sound echoing in the silence. After a moment, the door creaked open, revealing a middle-aged woman with tired eyes. Mrs. Juliana, Mr. Justin’s wife, stood there, her face creasing into a slight frown.“Can I help you?” she asked cautiously, her gaze darting between the two men.“We’re here to see Mr. Justin,” Raymond replied, attempting a polite tone.Mrs. Juliana hesitated but eventually stepped aside. “Come in. He’s in his study.”They followed her through a polished hallway, where old photographs and

At the New HospitalZia stepped out of the cab in front of the new hospital, pulling her hijab closer around her face. She wanted to stay unnoticed. Her eyes scanned the entrance before she walked in, her steps steady but careful.The hospital was big and clean, with shiny floors and the smell of disinfectant in the air. Zia walked through the hallway, keeping her head down. She didn’t want anyone to recognize her.At the reception desk, a nurse looked up from her computer.“Can I help you?” the nurse asked.“I’m here to see Lorenzo,” Zia said, her voice quiet.“Lorenzo who?” the nurse asked, her eyebrows raising slightly.“Lorenzo Audrey,” Zia replied.The nurse paused, her eyes narrowing a little. “And you are?”“I’m… family,” Zia said.The nurse didn’t look convinced. She picked up the phone and made a call. Zia stood there, her hands tucked under her coat, waiting.After a moment, the nurse hung up and turned to her. “I spoke with Mr. Edward Audrey. You’re allowed to visit. Lorenz

Chapter 41Zia was damned gone from the flips, head fogged as the SUV rattled to a stop in front of Nia's run-down, junkied-out building. The zicky looked worse every time she showed up, like the concrete itself was getting high and crumbling under the weight of its sins. She stumbled out, gripping the SUV door for balance. The stench of piss and rot wafted in the breeze, mixing with the distant sound of someone shouting obscenities. Classic Nia’s territory.She took a deep breath—regret instantly—and headed inside, her boots clunking on the uneven stairs. The door to the apartment was ajar, a faint cloud of smoke seeping out. Zia pushed it open, and there they were.Mira and Nia. Kissing.Zia blinked, the scene in front of her like a twisted fever dream. Nia, her sister who couldn’t keep her shit together long enough to stay clean for a week, and Mira, her so-called best friend, tangled on the couch like teenagers sneaking behind their parents’ backs. Nia broke the kiss, her lips sme

Third person's POV The man didn’t get far before Grandpa Edward Audrey’s men tackled him to the ground after a wild chase down the hood. A sharp gun butt to the head silenced his struggle, leaving him sprawled on the pavement. Moments later, another SUV screeched to a halt nearby, and the men roughly dragged the intruder into the vehicle before peeling off toward Nia’s place.Back at the scene, Grandpa Edward Audrey stood composed, Zia nervously at his side, while one of his enforcers, a stocky man with a cigar clenched between his teeth, approached. “We’ve got him,” the man said gruffly. “What now?”“Interrogate him,” Grandpa replied coldly. “Make sure he talks. I want everything.”Turning to Zia, he motioned toward a sleek black SUV parked a few steps away. “Get in,” he said. “Let’s get that drink.” Without waiting for a reply, he climbed into the vehicle, and Zia hesitated briefly before following, her mind racing with unease.The bar was dead silent, a hole in the wall that scr

Third Person’s POVNia’s place was a damn pit—a cramped room with mismatched furniture, ashtrays overflowing with cigarette butts, and the faint stench of spilled booze and stale sweat. The kind of place where the air felt thick with stories no one wanted to tell.Zia sat on a lumpy couch, her knees pulled to her chest, glancing sideways at Nia and Mira. The two hadn’t said much since Mira arrived, their awkward silence heavier than the smoke clouding the room. Mira flipped through an old magazine like it owed her money, while Nia cleaned her nails with the edge of a battered pocketknife, looking bored as hell."You two gonna act like strangers all night?" Zia asked, breaking the quiet.Mira snorted. “Ask your sister. She’s the one with the attitude.”Nia didn’t even look up. “Don’t come in here acting like you know me, princess. This is my space, not your high-rise drama.”“Alright, alright, enough,” Zia said, her voice low but firm. “I didn’t come here to babysit your beef. We’ve

Third Person's POVOutside the new hospital, the air felt too quiet, like the world held its breath for what was coming. Eight black SUVs roared up the drive like a storm, the engines snarling before they cut off in unison. Doors slammed, heavy boots hit the pavement, and out stepped Grandpa Edward Audrey, leading the pack like a goddamn warlord. His cane tapped the ground with authority as he strolled toward the entrance, his entourage a ripple of dark suits and watchful eyes.The hospital staff froze for a second, then snapped to action, ushering him inside. A medical supervisor, a lanky guy with a clipboard that looked like it weighed more than he did, hustled up to him."Mr. Audrey," the supervisor started, voice trembling just enough to show respect—or fear.Edward nodded but kept walking, his sharp gaze sweeping the hospital like he owned it. Maybe he didn’t on paper, but everyone knew that money and power made the rules, and Edward Audrey had both in spades.The supervisor

Chapter 93:Flashback:The moon hung low in the night sky, casting an eerie glow over the shifter pack. The quietude of the night was broken by the agonizing wail of an Omega. This was a night etched in the memories of those who witnessed the horror that transpired.One day ago, the moon had adorned the night sky, much like the present, but it was a different story altogether. That night, the pack was oblivious to the dark and sinister events unfolding in the shadows.In the midst of the moonlit woods, a young and vulnerable Omega named Tobias had ventured out alone. Unbeknownst to him, the shadows concealed a sinister figure. It was Rae, the cunning vampire council member, hidden in the darkness.Rae had chosen his victim carefully, knowing that an attack on a defenseless Omega would further escalate the tensions between the two factions. As Tobias wandered deeper into the woods, he felt an unsettling presence and turned to see a figure shrouded in darkness.The Omega's eyes widened

Chapter 92:The atmosphere in the pack was heavy with uncertainty as Alpha Dante, Beta Ravi, and Melissa Sabrina, the pack doctor, huddled together. They knew they had to get to the bottom of the incident involving the injured patient, a high school colleague of theirs.Alpha Dante, his face etched with concern, inquired, "Melissa, what do you think could have caused the patient's injuries and the loss of so much blood?"Melissa Sabrina, known for her expertise, examined the details carefully before responding, "Alpha Dante, it appears as though some creature or creatures, possibly figureheads, might have attacked him. The patient has lost a significant amount of blood, and his condition is critical. He appears lifeless, like something has drained the very essence of life from him."The weight of her words hung in the air, the implications chilling. Alpha Dante turned to Beta Ravi, and their eyes met, both realizing the gravity of the situation.After a moment of contemplation, Alpha

Chapter 91:The news had reached Alpha Dante like a thunderclap. A stranger had ventured into their territory and followed Irene. He couldn't comprehend the reason behind it, but he knew he had to confront the situation."Alpha Dante," the guard stammered, "a stranger has entered our lands and followed Irene."Alpha Dante's eyes narrowed as he questioned the guard, "Are you certain, and do you know the stranger's intentions?"The guard gulped and replied, "Yes, Alpha. I've never seen this person before, and it's unusual for outsiders to enter without permission. I don't know their intentions."Alpha Dante didn't hesitate. He left his chamber, flanked by guards, his heart pounding with unease. Thoughts swirled in his mind as he walked briskly. Why would anyone follow Irene? What could be the stranger's motives?As they approached the area where the stranger was last seen, Alpha Dante's eyes widened in disbelief.
