Isabel POV " Here you go, chocolate chip cookies just the way you like it." Uncle Fernando said before dropping a plate of chocolate cookies in front of I and Talia. " Thank you sir." Talia said before taking a piece." Uncle Fernando I came to talk to you about something really important." I said with a tone of seriousness." What is that dear?" " The Lawson fortune was taken by my ...ex husband." I said the last part in a low tone." How could you let that happen?" " It was a mistake, that's why I need your help to get it back uncle. I can't sit here and watch them enjoy what Dad worked for."" Then how do I help, you know I retired a long time ago." " You still have shares in the company right?" I asked anticipating a positive response but the response I was not good. " Well your dad, took away all the shared I bought in the company when I retired." He said as he furrowed his eyebrow. I could see a bit of anger in his eyes but did not read much brother fight every once in a wh

Miguel's POV I scanned through the many papers on my desk before glancing at my wristwatch at different interval. I was trying to work but I found it very hard to do so. The thought of the date I was going to have with Isabel this night filled my mind. After I was back from Korea, I talked to the board of directors and they welcomed the idea of the merger. We decided to keep it low for a while, though that was majorly Isabel's Idea. I took a look at the time one more time and it was six o'clock already. Immediately, I got up packing my stuffs to go. I heard a knock on the door and I groaned a 'come in' knowing exactly who it was. Jerry." Sir, your meeting with the Barnum's is in the next thirty minutes. Where are you going?" He asked looking at me with a confused expression on his face." What does it look like? I'm going home." " Home? How? Sir you specifically told me you had to have this meeting today." He stuttered." Well Jerry, something came up that I need to attend to urge

Isabel POV I stared at myself in the mirror as I cleaned up the make up. The date went well up until his ex girlfriend showed up and embarrassed me. Well obviously Miguel just walked away with me. I heard the vibration of my phone on my vanity. I looked at the caller and smiled, I swiped the answer button." Hi" I said in a low tone." Good evening Ma'am, I believe you're Isabel." I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. Why was someone else with his phone." Yes I am, anything the problem?" " Well, the owner of this phone had a very horrible accident and has been rushed to the emergency unit of St Agnes hospital."" Is he ok?" I asked as I threw on a joggers and some sweatshirt. " He was still breathing as at when I brought him in. Call his family members if you know any of them." " Ok" I stuttered, I was already having a panic attack. Tears streaming down my face and me frantically running around searching for my keys." Talia!" I heard a muffled yes before she I heard her footsteps.

Miguel POV Perfect by Ed Sheeran blasted throughout the car as I drove. I was so happy that I could talk to Isabel today for that long. I was already planning our next date in my head as I drove. I halted at the traffic as the lights turned red. As I waited for the light to change I searched for a house with a beach view on it. The next thing I felt was the impact of a truck that ran into my car pushing it. The car spun out of control before tumbling. Panic set in as I frantically tried to pull myself out, but it was futile. I looked around and shouted for help but help was far. I could see the fuel in my car trickling out and I knew if I don't come out. It might explode with me in it. Fear clawed it way up my chest suffocating me.I jolted awake gasping from the dream. "Calm down. You're alright, calm down." I heard a very familiar yet reassuring voice. My breath suddenly started getting steady as I drew in breath slowly. " Water." I whispered and a glass of water was placed close

Antonio POV" Can someone tell me why the fuck have the sales prices not risen in the last two months." I shouted angrily. I was in a meeting with all the heads of department. " Sir ...." One guy raised his hand to talk. "Yea? Give me a response." I said referring to the guy. " Well, most of our loyal clients had left for a long time now, since the change of name started."" Who are you again?"" I'm the head of the marketing and branding department sir." " You're fired, please ensure to turn over all the companies property to the head of human resources department." The man picked up his file and walked out not forgetting to slam the door." Does anyone have any other explanation without blaming it on the Change of name." " Esmeralda Reyes, my late wife had handed over this company to me and I can do exactly the way I please." " Sir..." My personal assistant, Sharon raised her hand to say something." Sharon you better have something good to say or I might have to fire you."" Y

Isabel POV The event was a total success and just like what Miguel had promised he never left my side the whole night. His hand were either draped around my waist or he was only few feet away from me. " I don't like the was your Ex husband is looking at you." He whispered softly into my ear making my breath hitch. The hotness from his mouth and the closeness of his lips to my ear turned me on but I had to suppress it." I don't like it either" he chuckled. When I turned to see Antonio. He was staring straight at us angry but I didn't care. I looked at Elena, she was also staring at us but not angrily. She had a smirk on like she had won. I could still remember the underground attack I had from Elena. I had begged Miguel and Talia not to get the police involved for any reason. I was greeting the president of Philippines when I got a glimpse of Elena and Antonio engaged in a heated argument before Antonio walked out on her. " Is everything ok?" Miguel asked" Yes everything is fine.

Isabel POV I was preparing for a meeting with the new investors when I got a message from Elena. I stared at the message for a long time without opening. There were a lot of questions I wanted to ask her but that could be me putting my life in danger too. " Ma'am?" Talia said nudging me. I was so distracted by the message that I wasn't even listening during the meeting. I looked at everyone in the room, they were all expecting me to say something but I had nothing to say. " I'm so sorry gentlemen I've been so busy lately so I would leave you in the hands of my able manager." I walked out of the conference room. I needed to clear my head urgently so I decided to go to the park down the road. At least that was the closest thing to nature. I sat there for a while just taking in the scene around me and enjoying the breezy evening. " I knew you would be here." She turned to see Talia. " Hey, I'm sorry for leaving you at the meeting like that. I just wasn't in the right mindset."" It's

Isabel POV I stared into a space of the hosas I remembered the good memories with Talia. I think I'm a curse, everyone I ever loved had died one way or the other. My eyes were swollen and at this point I think I was tired of crying. It's been three days since Talia passed on and I still couldn't wrap my head around the fact that she's gone forever. Just the thought of not hearing her annoying shrill voice made tears pouring down. The door opened and Mr Cruz came in. " I'm so sorry sir. I didn't mean to." I said sobbing as I knelt down in front of him. His eyes were red and you could tell that he had cried on his way here. " It's not your fault darling, it's not." He pulled me up to stand up." It is, I wanted her to eat burger. I could have told her to stay home." My tear kept dropping down. " It's better. At least I didn't have to lose both my daughters." He said as he wiped my tears. He always refers to me as a daughter but I never regarded him as my father. I wrapped my arms ar

"Feeding off what?" Caleb asked, his rifle sweeping the area.Before Finn could answer, a low growl echoed through the village. The team froze, their weapons trained on the source of the sound. From the shadows emerged creatures unlike any they had faced before. Their forms were barely humanoid, their bodies composed of writhing tendrils and jagged shards of obsidian. Their glowing eyes burned with malice."Contact!" Ruby shouted, firing the first shot.The creatures attacked with terrifying speed, their movements unnatural and erratic. Caleb fired at the nearest one, his bullets shattering its obsidian exterior but failing to slow it down. Selene charged forward, her blade glowing as it sliced through a tendril that lashed out at her."Aim for the cores!" Finn yelled, his device beeping wildly.

''I'll feel better if I sleep, I told myself.Ghb yuu yuu y7u rrd tre oil uiuBut immediately as I was about drifting into sleep, I heard a sound that made me jump right up from bed.Asher's ears sparked in defense, his growl filling the whole room. The sound alone sent a chill running through my spine, but I couldn't look away from the window. There was a shadow outside that seemed to shift, stretching and bending unnaturally than they should have.I stood in fear, not being able to feel my legs which felt heavy. All I could hear was the sound of my heartbeat which kept on thundering in my chest. A loud bang at the door made me jump from my bed. I gasped out of shock, crawling on my knees in order to peep through the door. before I could even make it, the door burst open with enough force to slam against the wall. Two figures stood in the doorway, covered in dark shadows.GyyTheir eyes were glowing with yellow, a sight that

"Another kilometer," Finn replied, adjusting the scanner. "But the energy is… erratic. It's like the cluster is unstable, but it's pulling resources from somewhere."Ruby nodded, her grip tightening on her rifle. "Stay alert. The Shadow never makes things easy." The whole team were on high alert as they lifted their weapons higher ready to attack at the slightest movement The cluster appeared suddenly, nestled within a narrow gorge. Tendrils of dark energy snaked along the ground, pulsating faintly. At its center was a twisted structure, a crude spire of shadow and stone that seemed to breathe with unnatural life."Looks like a smaller version of the core," Finn murmured. "But it's… fractured. If we can destabilize it, the whole thing should collapse."Ruby surveyed the area. "Let's make it happen. You handle the spire. I'll cover you."As Finn approached the structure, the ground trembled. Creatures emerged from the shadows, their forms misshapen but vicious. Ruby fired a quick burs

Finn's scanner beeped intermittently, struggling to maintain accuracy. "The interference is worse than I expected," he admitted, frowning at the flickering display. "We're flying blind out here."Selene's eyes scanned the horizon. "Then we rely on instincts. This isn't the first time we've worked without a map."Zoe smirked faintly. "She's right. Besides, if anything jumps out, I'll just cut it down."Ruby kept her rifle at the ready, her voice cutting through the tension. "Stay sharp. Whatever's waiting for us, it knows we're coming."The signal led them to an ancient ruin, partially buried beneath layers of shadow-infused earth. The structure was unlike anything they'd encountered before—crumbling stone walls laced with veins of pulsing dark energy. Tendrils of shadow coiled and twisted through the air, moving as if alive.Finn's eyes widened as he studied the ruin. "This place… it's amplifying the signal. The core's energy is dormant but concentrated here. If we can disable it, we'

Ruby led the way, her voice cutting through the chaos. "Stay together! Keep moving!"A massive tendril slammed into the path ahead, cutting them off. Selene darted forward, her blade slicing through the tendril in a single, decisive strike. "Go! I've got this!"The team pushed forward, the exit coming into view just as the chamber let out a deafening roar. They burst into the open air, the ground beneath them trembling as the chamber collapsed entirely.Finn stumbled to his knees, his scanner clutched tightly in his hands. He stared at the screen, his face pale. "The energy… it's… it's heading somewhere else."Ruby turned to him, her expression grim. "Where?"Finn looked up, his voice shaking. "I don't know. But whatever it is, it's not good."The team's breaths came in heavy gasps as they stared out over the Wastes. The Shadow's remnants weren't just lingering. They were regrouping, gathering strength for something far worse.Ruby's grip tightened on her rifle. "We'll stop it. Whatev

The mechanical voice over the intercom had been haunting in its finality: "Containment protocol initiated. No one leaves."I bolted from the server room with my laptop clutched to my chest, my mind racing. Somewhere in these files was a way out, a weakness in the system I'd unwittingly helped build."Miguel!" I called, spotting him barricading the main corridor. His eyes snapped to me."What did you find?" he demanded, not pausing in his task of positioning wreckages for cover."More data on the project—but it's a mess. They've buried the important files under layers of encryption.""Then unbury them," he snapped. "We're running out of time!"I didn't argue. My hands shook as I knelt beside him, setting up my laptop on a nearby crate. The battle outside raged, but my focus was on the scre

Miguel's POVThe headlights caught her face fully now, and there was no mistaking it.Our mother.Her face was pale, lined with the kind of exhaustion that only comes from years of pain, yet her eyes held that same piercing intensity I remembered as a child.Fifteen years. Fifteen years without a word. Without an explanation.I pushed open the car door. Cold air hit me, but my chest burned hotter than ever."Stay in the car," Dad ordered, his voice taut with authority."Like hell I will." I stepped out, heart pounding. "Fifteen years. And you think showing up now—like this—is enough?"She took a step forward."Miguel, please. There's so much you don't—"I cut her off, my voice trembling. "Then explain it. No more riddles. No more secrets. Why now?"Behind me, Isabel's voice cut through the tension."Miguel! Diego's pulse is dropping again!

The air in the resistance base buzzed with an energy that was equal parts anticipation and dread. Though Ruby and her team had delivered a crippling blow to the Shadow, the cracks in the landscape, the faint echoes of corruption still lingering in the Wastes, spoke to a danger far from eradicated. The Shadow's remnants were more than just scars; they were seeds, threatening to sprout into new horrors if left unchecked.Ruby stood in the command center, leaning over a table strewn with maps and tactical reports. The dim light overhead cast sharp shadows across her face. Evelyn's voice was sharp as ever as she discussed deployments with the council."We've dispatched scouts to all regions marked by Finn's residual energy readings," Evelyn said, her fingers tracing the map. "But reports from the south are troubling. A village near the Wastes border… it's gone dark. No communication. No survivors seen leaving."Finn adjusted his device, the holographic map flickering to life above the tab
