It was in the early evening, but it seemed later than it should have. The stormy weather gave an eerie vibe that loomed overhead. A lone wanderer is seen quickly walking towards a sizeable two-story estate door as the lightning flashes illuminating the person trying to avoid the rain. Being his last delivery for the day, he’s been ready for his shift to end so he can take a hot shower to take away the weather’s chill. The small awning above the door gave little relief from the drenching rain from the storm. It finally opened from knocking on the door for a minute and sounding the doorbell multiple times. A rather displeased man is standing there and questions him. “This is the Weston estate. State your business.” He bellowed, looking at the gentleman in front of him being rained upon. “I’m here to deliver this envelope. It’s assigned to Mr. George Weston and must be hand-delivered and signed for.” The delivery man said quickly, holding a large brown envelope while getting drenched
To everyone at the table, this came as a complete surprise. Everyone knew that with the help of the Andersons, the family would soar to the top known families in Swanville, California. Steve was the young master of the Anderson family; he was to be the next CEO of their real estate company and heir to Anderson’s fortune. Who wouldn’t want him to be their grandson-in-law? Everyone was whispering to one another, unable to believe what the head of the family had said. “Grandfather, why? He’s competent; he can bring many benefits to the family if this union can be….” Said Claire, almost in tears. She worked hard to pursue this family union, bringing her more benefits into the family’s good graces and using this opportunity to get ahead in the company. A young man sitting opposite Claire smiled. He was jealous of Claire’s influence on the family; she and her sister were always his grandfather’s favorite. He was Henry Weston, Claire’s first cousin, and she and he were always rivals. “Si
“You still want benefits?” Asked George Weston, getting aggravated over the whole ordeal; what was the matter with today’s youth? I would have jumped at the chance to marry into a wealthy family. “I’m selling my freedom of three years in an arranged marriage that we both don’t want; of course, there has to be an incentive.” “How about this, If you two don’t continue the marriage after the allotted time, you can walk away with a million dollars.” Said George Weston. “A million is too low, three million, and it’s a done deal.” Blake is reputed, and how could there be such a low number for the time he had to stay with this woman? “Agreed. What do you say on your end, my dear?” Asked George Weston, looking upon Claire with hope. “Okay, but during this time, he cannot touch me. I will continue to be pure for my future husband. If he defiles me, this contract will be breached, and he will have to pay me fifteen million dollars back as compensation.” Replied Claire looking at Blake with
Blake closed the door and sat on a wooden chair in front of the desk. It was a fairly spacious office with an oak desk, leather seat, a couch on the side, and filing cabinets. A window with shades was behind Mr. Wilson as he sat, giving a vibe from an old movie. “Blake, what happened during your last delivery?” Asked Mr. Wilson, sternly looking at Blake. “I don’t know what you mean?” Asked Blake with a blank expression. “I just got off the phone with a Mr. Weston stating that you will be reporting back to his home tomorrow morning and that you will not be able to work that day. Who did you offend? Do you know who that person is?” asked Mr. Wilson getting angry. “It’s the goddam Weston Family; they are one of the most influential families in the city.” “Sorry, Mr. Wilson, but I was going to explain to you as soon as I got back that I was not going to make it into work tomorrow, but I guess grandfather beat me to it.” Said Blake without showing any concern. “Grandfather, who’s your
Blake awoke early that day, washed and ate a light breakfast, and headed to Elon Delivery Services to meet with Mr. Wilson. When he arrived, Mr. Wilson led him to one of the best shops in the city and bought him a costly three-piece suit and leather shoes. Later he looked into the mirror, and even he was astonished at his image. “I clean up pretty nicely.” It’s been a while since Blake had dressed in a suit other than his military uniform. “That you do. Now let’s get you to your wedding, shall we.” Mr. Wilson then patted his shoulder as they walked towards the counter and paid the clerk. Blake chuckled under his breath, but it was getting pretty late, and he had promised to arrive around seven. He then went straight to Weston Manor after dropping Mr. Wilson back at the company. “Where is that boy? It’s almost seven. Did he run away? I swear I’ll hunt him down if he doesn’t show.” George was looking at his watch as he muttered to himself. Claire was in a long plain-looking white g
Shocked by what he had just heard, Steve didn’t realize that he was too late to take Claire as his wife.“Claire, you will go to your husband this instance and stand by his side,” George stated angrily, coldly looking at Steve.Claire could only obey her grandfather and walked towards Blake, who had just arrived at the foyer.“Claire, what’s going on? Who is he? Grandfather, can someone please tell me what is going on?” Steve, who still couldn’t comprehend what had happened, asked franticly. “Steve, I’ve already told you that Claire is now married to this gentleman. She is no longer your concern, and you will break all contact with her from here on out.” George replied coldly at Steve.Steve was in denial, shaking his head.“This is impossible. I don’t believe you. How can this happen? Claire, I love you, and you love me, you are to be my wife, this is some joke, haha, you got me, Claire come here to me, don’t play with me.”Claire stood by Blake and held her head down with tears dro
Mother and daughter talked about how luxurious the home was and how tiring it would be to keep this home cleaned with all the detailed chores. A two-bedroom house with a single bath, living, dining, and kitchen was a lot to handle for them. Blake just let them talk, paying them no mind as he looked at the home smiling. “I don’t know. We could get someone to come once a week and take care of the home. What do you think, mother?” “Why spend unwanted money when we have someone right here? We’ll give him an allowance to pay the utilities and groceries for the week. He can take care of the cleaning and cooking himself.” “You’re right; it would be better and cheaper to have him do it. He could at least show some worth.” While the mother and daughter had made up their mind that Blake would be the one responsible for the chores, he went into the most oversized bedroom to have a look. Only then did Claire notice that he had left them and went into the bedroom, so she followed him in. “Hey
In a flash, a year and eleven months had passed. A pandemic had taken over the nation in twenty-twenty, and many had suffered. The small business was significantly impacted, and so was the entertainment business. Dynamic Entertainment was at a significant loss during that year. The company can barely make ends meet, even with the twenty-twenty-one recovery this year. George called a great meeting for the company, and everyone was in the conference room. Claire was sitting at the back while Quinton and his son Henry were seated on both sides of George, with the remaining board members sitting around the table. “Okay, I won’t beat around the bush here. It was brought to my attention that we’re in a deficit of thirty million dollars, and there will be trouble with the new regulations out there right now. Any ideas on where we can get more investors for the company.” No one said anything but looked around with concern on their faces. Whispers were heard throughout the meeting room, but
“The Angels have targeted earth, winged people from another dimension. I needed to take care of the problem before returning.” Blake explained. “But that is not the problem now. Eliese here prophesized that there will be a battle soon.”“Battle? Who would….” Chai Bing began when a particular person came to mind. “First Elder. He hasn’t been seen since he left, and many guests are here for the wedding. It would be a perfect time for him to make a showing. Come. Father is waiting in the guest meeting room, and many await your arrival.”“When will this son-in-law that the Chai have chosen arrive? It’s been already two days, and he hasn’t shown himself. Did he run?” A man in red silk robes asked.“I’m sure he has his reasons for not sowing on time. I assure you he has not run. He loves my granddaughter and will arrive after his business has been dealt with.” Master Chai Kern replied, looking a bit uneasy about Blake’s tardyness.Blake, with all following, went to the guest meeting hall. T
Blake chuckled as he left the room. He had only taught her a minor lesson and sealed her seductive aura from her. He had countlessly warned her of showing off her seductive aura so easily if it would cause trouble in the future. With his Quasi-True Divinity cultivation level, it was easily done when he gave her that slap on the ass. When he arrived at the guest meeting room area, the women were chatting as Josiline told some of the adventure stories she had when she survived traveling the forest of the Inner World. When Blake arrived, he noticed Josiline and felt good about her. He could also see an inert power within her, but since she hadn’t cultivated, it was dormant. She had black hair that fell to the center of her back, C-cup breasts with a perky butt, and a robust body with a bronze skin tone.“I hope you weren’t too rough on them,” Claire said when she saw Blake’s arrival.“Only gave Sylvia a small lesson.” Blake then chuckled.“So, you’re Joseline, I’m Blake Elon, and I’m su
In the traveling formation, Blake was far from Blake two, but he shuddered as an image entered his mind. His silk robe was in tatters, and he was lying on a bed with his hands and feet tied so he couldn’t escape. Blake Prime wondered what binding these were because he could not break them. Unknown to Blake, this was an experimental binding rope that Huo and Ling had been working on with Gerold for Blake if he would show back up in the Small World. It was a success when Ling could not break the binding ropes with Huo, but they were still apprehensive about whether it would hold Blake in place since his cultivation was much higher than theirs.Suddenly, the light at the end of the tunnel arrived, and they materialized in a small courtyard where a woman of stern bogy stature was seen standing guard. She seemed to be asleep, leaning on a large spear.Claire recognized the woman instantly as one of her sisters, Joseline. It seemed she was still waiting on Blake’s arrival.“Joseline…. JOSEL
“Yes. Yes, I could guide you through Hell.” The shadow then thought about how much Power of Faith he had to use to be created. “Just don’t destroy me.”“I don’t advise it,” Michael commented.“When do you want me to create the Formation?” Susan asked, looking a lot better after her rest.“After Claire and the rest are ready.” Blake Prime said. And took the orb from Blake Jr. and handed it to Blake three.“You will go into Hell and talk to Lucifer.” Blake Prime said, with Blake three nodding in agreement.Blake, where is Maia?” Julie asked, looking around for her best friend.“She is in the Small World taking care of some personal business.” Blake smiled, knowing what Blake three had done.With the immediate threat to his family eliminated, he can now focus on the Hell mission and the Inner World. Seeing the tired look on Elise’s face when she arrived, he knew he had delayed too long here on Earth as well.“If everyone is ready.” Blake Prime asked, looking at the awaiting women around
“You can spar with him if you like, but don’t kill him….yet I have some plans he will be needed,” Blake whispered into her ear.A cold light entered her eyes when she looked upon her ex-lover from so long ago. Then, her attention came upon all the women around them, and she gasped as she didn’t recognize them.“And who are they?” Maia asked, looking at all of the women around them.“We are his wives.” Ling proclaimed, standing beside Blake.“You cheeky man. You are even the king of the Phoenix Clan?” Maia asked, astounded over the situation. “With their birth rate and fast growth, you could have an army of soldiers.”“Only if he would fulfill his obligations. How long has it been since you haven’t returned and filled our clan with more children?” Huo said angrily, hitting Blake’s chest like a lost lover who was wronged.All Blake could do was place his hand behind his head in embarrassment. No one knew if it was because he had fathered so many children or didn’t father enough.“I will
Blake was with Michael, who had unbounded his powers to fight with the three angels.“BROTHERS, LET’S NOT BATTLE. YOU ARE NOT MY MATCH.” Michael said in his angelic voice, looking at the worn-torn three.“Michael, we may not, but you must still appear before our Lord and explain your actions!” Ezekiel cried out.“We are too exposed here. Let’s take this elsewhere.” Blake said, and so they all disappeared from the crowd.The people there believed they had witnessed a miracle. Some bent a knee and began praying instantly; some were so shocked to see winged people they had already begun recording the destruction of the building that had captured them rising out of the rubble and disappearing. The internet was on fire with accounts of this, with more and more people commenting on the scene.“What? Angels in the Capital? Why were they coming out of the ruble? Where was this? Who were they? Also, did anyone notice the other man hovering there without wings?” One Internet enthusiast commente
Reverend Fengway saw his son, rushed, picked him up in relief, and hugged him forcefully. He was worried that the battle taking place in the building would cause harm to his son.“Father, not in front of my girlfriend, Olivia,” Jerold said with embarrassment.Reverend Fengway then placed his son back onto the ground, relieved that he was alright, then looked at Olivia, who was standing beside his son with wide eyes that looked dead.“What is wrong with her?” Reverend Fengway asked, seeing her standing there like a doll.“Nothing, she has decided to become my girlfriend,” Jerold said with a great smile and turned to Blake Jr’s direction.Reverend Fengway nodded his approval and smiled. This situation has become more beneficial for his mission, which was sent from the church to target Charles Vandercoup, spearheading the bill for Blake.Sirens rang from the distance as the first responders quickly arrived for the destroyed building. Police were also arriving and moving people back from
Blake and Gloria looked at one another in surprise, and Blake frowned.“So you’ve been hiding your powers,” Blake said, not showing any shock.“What’s it to you, freak,” Jerold responded with an evil glare.“What’s your plan?” Blake asked. “Capture Olivia, brainwash her to convince her Father not to pursue the bill my Father wants to pass?”Jerold then turned to Blake with a smile.“What a clever boy. Seen right through me, have you? But it’s too late. With Olivia as my girlfriend, her Father has to listen to her, or maybe something nasty will happen to her.” Jerold stated.“Let her go. She is innocent.” Gloria called out and was about to move against Jerold when Olivia moved between them.“Move out of the way, Olivia,” Gloria said.“You will not hurt my boyfriend. What? Jealous that I got a boyfriend now?” Olivia asked, looking at Gloria with an evil look.“Olivia, listen to what you are saying. We have been friends for so long.” Gloria said, trying to get through to Olivia and snap
While the adults were discussing the situation, Blake Jr. and Gloria traveled along the shadows with Blake’s powerful Darkness Law and headed to the isolated room holding Olivia. When they arrived at the door, one could see that there were many runes and symbols on the door protecting it.“When did the church have such an array?” Blake Jr. asked, only to have Gloria shake her head in response.Behind the door lay Olivia, waking up from the chloroform given to her to make her come with the men more easily. When she awoke, her head hurt, and she dizzily swayed when she rose.“Ah, you are awake.” A familiar voice came that made her turn her head too quickly. To see Jerold sitting there patiently.“Ow, Jerold, have we been kidnapped?” Olivia asked, holding her head.“No, not really. My Father wants to meet with your Father to discuss some things, and we are here to wait.” Jerold said, looking like he was excited to be with Olivia.“Jerold, that is kidnapping. Your Father will be in troubl
