"Stacy," Salome called, her voice filled with amusement, disbelief, and disgust.

"Hey, bitch. How have you been?" Stacy tucked her trembling hands into her jeans to hide them.

Salome slowly removed her mask, a mocking grin spreading on her red lips.

"You look like shit, little sister. ¿Has estado comiendo? (Have you been eating?)"

Stacy scoffed as she watched Salome step forward. Salome had always been like this—always full of ego. She loved to see people beneath her.

Salome and Stacy were the only daughters of Mr. Fernandez, a well-known and popular businessman in Spain.

Stacy was brilliant and a fast learner. She was a computer freak, which impressed Mr. Fernandez greatly, and when Salome saw this, she became jealous.

She found many ways to kick Stacy out of the mansion but failed because Mr. Fernandez always took Stacy's side.

When Stacy found out about her father's illegal business, she challenged him, but he never listened.

Unknown to her, Salome listened to their conversation an

    [AUSTRALIA… morning]"What is wrong, Dylan?" Jolene asked Dylan, who had stopped drawing."Huh?""You've been acting strange. You're not talking like you used to. Is something bothering you?"Dylan stared at her for a while before asking, "Is Mom coming back?""Yes. Yes, of course she is coming back. She promised to return before your birthday; she'll definitely return." Jolene smiled, but Dylan didn't."I had a nightmare, and it scared me. Will she be back?"This time, Jolene's breath hitched, and she became speechless. She recalled how Tatiana had asked her to console Dylan in such situations.She smiled and ruffled the boy's hair. "She'll definitely come back. She is safe and sound, okay?"Dylan nodded and continued, "What about Father?""You miss him?" Jolene asked, and Dylan nodded."Let's give him a call, alright?"Dylan grinned and shifted closer to Jolene.Meanwhile, Aurora was watching from the shadows. She went back to her bedroom and stood by her window, overlooking the cit

    "Hello, my wonderful daughters. Did you miss me?"Wonderful daughters?Miss him?Is he fucking serious right now?The three gazed at him in disbelief, disgust, and anger. This was the man who had made them go through hell and sat by, watching.The burn scar on the right side of his face that disfigured him made the girls wonder where he got it. They couldn't deny the fact that the man looked even scarier than he did years ago."That was quite a holiday for you three, wasn't it?" Maximus grinned as he stepped closer, his gaze unreadable."Where's my baby?!" Issabella, who was behind her older sisters, spoke first.Maximus looked at her. "My granddaughter is fine, sweetie. I'm not going to hurt her.""Give her back! She is not your granddaughter!" Issabella spat."And you don't know her father," Maximus mocked with a gentle laugh."Haven't you done enough?" Maya spoke this time. She was at the front, Tatiana was behind her, trying to manage herself, and Issabella's eyes welled up with t

    Cassius held the rifle tightly before him. His feet moved frantically across the room as his breath became shaky."Your wife is in Spain."Spain? Without telling him? His anger was evident on his face as he stared into space.He could only imagine the hell that would break loose if his wife got hurt. Why? Why did she have to go on that dangerous mission without telling him?His head was spinning with anxiety and anger.He was also in Spain, though in the northern part where Valentino's clan was located. He badly wanted to take his men and go find her, but he had to wait until he knew where to find her."Take it easy, bestie. You don't want to have a heart attack before you find her," Valentino spoke. He was sitting in the corner of the room with his two huge dire wolves beside him, feeding them meat.Cassius was surprised when he saw that Valentino's pets were two dire wolves.Who the heck keeps dire wolves as pets?!There used to be three. Valentino mentioned the last one died while

    HOURS AGO"Mr. King did it."Tatiana's face paled. Cassius caused the scar? That was the last name she expected him to mention."It was the scariest moment of my life. Trapped in the car with none of the functions working, nowhere to run, no one to call. He caught me at the perfect time for his scheme. My heart was racing like crazy as I stared at the endless quiet road in the dark. The car collided with a hard surface and caught fire. The pain, the screams, and the dying thoughts rushed over me like waves... I couldn't breathe. I couldn't think. All I wanted was to see daylight again," Maximus explained as he recalled the moment.Tatiana chuckled and sneered hatefully. "You deserve every moment of it. I'm quite disappointed he didn't make sure you burned alive. You caused his mother's accident; she went into a coma because of you!"Maximus slowly rested his back on the wall and seemed to think for a moment. "That wasn't the only reason."Tatiana frowned.He continued. "Do you even kn

    PRESENTAfter narrating, Maximus burst into laughter, his voice echoing around the room."Who would have thought the dumbass would end up marrying my daughter?" An evil grin spread across his lips.Tatiana's mind was blank. Cassius had his first kill at thirteen?! That was a blow.She had witnessed Cassius's rough side before—the day he almost killed Zero with his bare hands and how he had tortured Nathan."You're not after me, you're after him," Tatiana said, finally understanding Maximus's intention."Good girl.""What made you like this?" she asked in a whisper."The world," he replied."The world? What the heck do you want?" She asked the question that had been bothering her."Power. All I ever wanted was power. I want every man and woman to shrink in fear whenever they hear my name," Maximus smirked."You're a psycho. Why do you want power so badly that you'd use your own daughter?" Tatiana’s eyes welled up."You've felt it too, Tatiana. In no time, you won the Best Actress award

    [AUSTRALIA]Hudson sighed, resting his head on the shiny black chair. His head pounded as if it might split at any moment.Ever since Cassius left, he had been the one handling the company work. It wasn’t easy, but he was glad he could use it to distract himself.He had been avoiding Indigo and burying himself in work.A text came through on his phone, and as his gaze fell on it, he saw Indigo’s message.~Hey, how are you doing?~ she texted.He sighed and replied that he was fine. As he put his phone down, it rang with her call.For the first time in many days, he picked up.“H... Hudson?” She stuttered on the other end, seemingly not expecting him to answer.“Hey, Dee. How are you?” he asked.“I... I... am fine... you?” she stammered again.“I’m good.” The words sounded like a lie to his own ears.“You sound tired. Are you okay?”“Yeah, I’ve been busy. With Cash not around, my workload tripled. I just have a slight headache right now.”“Have you eaten lunch?”“No.”“What? It’s almost

    Salome gazed at her little sister, who lit her cigarette. She let out a painful moan, enduring the agony that coursed through her."Are you really going to leave your sister like this? Your father? Your family? Are you going to betray them like this?" Salome asked as Stacy blew out smoke from her pink lips."Family?" Stacy scoffed. "Oh, please, don't make me laugh.""I'm serious. Look, I know we've wronged you, but you can't just sell us out like this. You told the enemy how to capture us... You...""God, you're so loud. I was asked to check on you. Can you do me a favor and keep your mouth shut?" Stacy said."Stacy, we're your family...""Oh, please, can you just shut up?" Stacy groaned."I know we hate each other, but you've gone too far by betraying the whole family. Your family.""My family?!" Stacy snapped, standing up. Her gaze was cold as she approached Salome.

    Tatiana opened her mouth slightly to take the food from Cassius. He had been awfully quiet since she woke up and helped her bathe.His answers were just 'Yes' or 'No.' He gave her everything she needed, and now he was feeding her. Though his gaze was calm, she could tell he was angry.She had almost lost her life, and she never told Cassius about her mission. Waves of guilt crashed over her every second."Cash," she called softly to the man who was busy cutting her steak."Hm?" he responded without looking at her."A-are you mad at me?" Tatiana knew the question was stupid. Of course, he was mad at her.Cassius paused for a moment before continuing."I found Isabella alive."He paused again, this time looking up at her with wide eyes. The shock was evident in his expression, and he looked a bit confused."I found her in the brothel. She was waiting for me the whole time—with a baby." Tatiana clenched her jaw, trying to hold back tears. "I hate myself for not telling you, and I hate my

    “Rosa,” Zade approached her quietly. She sat alone on the hotel rooftop, gazing up at the night sky.“How did you find me?” Rosa asked, her expression blank.“I figured you'd be somewhere quiet, probably with a nice view and fresh air. The rooftop seemed like the best bet,” Zade explained. “Care if I join you?”“As long as you don’t become a burden, help yourself.”Rosa had always been the one who smiled the most in the clan. She was cheerful, helpful, talkative—everyone loved her. Talented. Beauty with brains.But after Viktor’s death...Zade hadn’t seen even a glimpse of a smile on her face.It had been over a week since the war ended. Leonard was now being held in a psychiatric facility known as the Phantom Cell, secured with high-tech restraints. That guy would be tortured until his last breath.Not the violent kind of torture, but the kind that would haunt him. Trapped between walls, injected with things that would slowly drive him insane.Rafeal had said Leonard was saved agains

    Angie Hales. That name was carved into the gravestone. The yard was the place where all the dead mobsters were buried. Rafeal approached, placing a bunch of flowers on the stone, his expression blank, but inside he was breaking. He hadn't seen her death coming. Even though she had made a grave mistake that caused the clan to suffer, Angie had been his friend ever since he joined the clan. She was brave, smart, and always there to calm him with her words. Even now, he still found it hard to believe Angie was truly behind it… Rosa walked to stand beside Rafeal, her face unreadable, but she was breaking inside too. “I shouldn’t have told her to die after the mission,” Rosa said, taking a deep breath to steady her nerves. “I regret my words that day.” “It’s not your fault,” Rafeal said. Rosa nodded, understanding what Rafeal meant. “She was my best friend.” “She paid her debt,” Rafeal mumbled. Memories of Angie surfaced, striking Rosa’s heart. “Still… I hope she fin

    Several days passed, and Milena didn't leave Rafeal’s side for a second. She watch the doctor feed and treat him occasionally, read him stories and watched him sleep until her own eyes shut.Three days had passed, and Milena grew worried, missing him so badly. She missed his voice, his smile, his touch, and the way he made her feel.Wake up soon, Rafeal.The doctor mentioned his body was still healing and that it would take time before he regains consciousness.Milena rested her head beside him, taking his hand into hers and falling asleep like that. She loved doing so—she could sense even the slightest movement from him.The sun rose from its horizon, casting a warm glow over the city.Milena stirred in her sleep, releasing a light moan. She looked up, and shock rippled through her.She was lying on the couch, and the bed was empty."Rafeal!" she gasped, shoving off the sheet that covered her one side of her and bolting to the bed. "Where did he go? He can't be up! Did the doctor tra

    Milena blinked in shock, still frozen in place as her limbs refused to listen to her.Finally met her? Why would the great Tatiana Wallington be anticipating meeting her?As if reading her thoughts, Tatiana spoke again in that smooth voice.“We've heard about you, dear.”Milena’s legs wobbled. “Good things, I hope,” she muttered under her breath. She glanced at Cassius, who still had his sharp gaze fixed on her.Then she bowed deeply, her head almost touching her knees.“Nice to really meet you too, Mr. and Mrs. King,” she straightened up and flashed them a nervous smile as Cassius gave her an acknowledging nod.“Rafeal told me about you guys too,” Milena added.The Ward's door slid open, and Zade walked in as well, standing beside her. Milena flashed him a glare as if asking, *Why didn't you tell me they were here?*Zade gave her a replying look too. *You didn't give me a chance; how am I supposed to do that?*Milena sighed defeatedly, knowing he was right. Tatiana offered the empty

    Milena snapped awake with a gasp, her eyes meeting an unfamiliar room. She was surrounded by white walls—too bright, too sterile. The ceiling spun above her for a moment before everything began to settle.Her heart pounded in her chest as she pushed herself up, the hospital sheets sliding off her trembling body. Her hands instinctively clutched the fabric at her chest, panic crawling up her throat as her eyes darted around the place.“Rafeal…”Her voice came out as a whisper, hoarse and broken.Memories surged in—his limp body in her arms, the flatline sound, the doctors shouting.She swung her legs off the bed, nearly collapsing from the dizziness that hit her. But she didn’t care. Her feet touched the cold floor, and she forced herself up, dragging her weak body to the door.She yanked it open.A nurse turned at the sound, startled. “Ma’am, please—you need to lie down, you’re not—”“Where is he?” Milena demanded, voice trembling but full of desperation. “Where is Rafeal?”"Ma’am, yo

    While Milena cradled Rafael's unconscious body, Angie ran to Rosa's side and saw the scene. Just like Rosa, her body froze in place, but she quickly recovered, pulling out an injection from her gear and running towards them.She shoved it onto Rafael's lap and injected him, then checked on his state."He is not breathing," Milena sobbed, her whole body trembling. "Rafael is not breathing!"Angie immediately lifted him despite the exhaustion from searching for the antidote clouding her senses. She carried him out, and Milena struggled to follow.She was drained, her bones threatening to give up, darkness slipping into her mind, and she almost fell, but Rosa caught her.Zade appeared too, shocked at the scene. He was covered in blood and sweat; it seemed they had been fighting off the men outside.He rushed to help Milena, taking her from Rosa and leading her out.However, Rosa paused and glanced at unconscious Leonard, her eyes dangerously cold as deadly intent rose within them.Angie

    Milena watched them clash like two storms colliding.No hesitation. No holding back.Rafael was a blur—faster than Leonard remembered. Every strike was brutal, precise, like he’d been waiting for this fight his entire life.Their fists met, their bones cracked, and their snarls echoed like monsters in a cage.Both were skilled; no one would know who was stronger among the brothers.Leonard went for Rafael’s throat with a wild hook, but Rafael ducked and slammed his elbow into Leonard’s ribs, sending him staggering back and coughing blood.Leonard smirked, wiping the blood off his face with the back of his hand. “That all you’ve got, little brother?”Rafael didn’t answer. He spun low and swept Leonard’s legs, sending him crashing to the floor. Rafael pounced, fists flying, hammering into Leonard’s jaw over and over.Blood splattered across the floor, warm and slick. Leonard twisted, caught Rafael’s arm, and flipped him—hard.Rafael slammed onto his back with a groan but rolled to his f

    Oxford’s fingers flew over his keyboard, trying to find a way to connect with his allies. He needed someone to back him up.Gunshots echoed everywhere. It was no longer just one man with a sniper—more had come to attack them.He already sensed that Leonard and his men were cornered. But no matter how many times Oxford tried, he couldn’t get through.He had another method of connecting with his allies and requesting help, but access kept being denied. Were his allies under attack too?Each time he tried to reach them, someone—or something—kept blocking him out. A hacker? Fuck. He wasn’t that good at this stuff.“Where’s Zinnia?!” Oxford barked at X. Zinnia was the head of hacking.“She—” That was the only word X could manage before the van door swung open—no, it was ripped open.Before X could react, a dire wolf pounced on him. X shot aimlessly, hitting even the equipment in the van, as the wolf tore off his arm.Oxford cursed under his breath, watching X fight for his life. A large fi

    Oxford’s van arrived at the port first. The ship was ready, and his men had already begun unloading the illegal drugs, weapons, and poison into it.He knew staying in a country dominated by Silence was a deadly risk, but he had to come. After all, one can't defeat an enemy without getting a little close.More importantly, there was his little daughter—she might have something that could help him bring Silence down. Once he got what he wanted from her, he would kill her… and if she insisted on keeping quiet, she would be tortured until death.Oxford snickered as he took a drag from his cigarette. Who would’ve thought he’d manage to break into the territory of the most dangerous man in the mafia world?And even kill one of his best men…Ha! Silence is getting old, after all. It was bound to happen. No one stays king forever.If it hadn’t been for Silence, he and Maximus would have had the entire world beneath their feet.“Rest well, brother,” Oxford muttered.
