The empire was vast, the estate was fortified, and the dynasty was taking shape.

But power wasn’t permanent without conflict.

And now?

Leonardo and I weren’t just building our future.

We were defending it.

Elena hadn’t just been watching—she had been moving.

It started with subtle shifts. Key players in Milan hesitating on deals that had once been seamless. Unexplained delays in shipments, whispers of uncertainty creeping into our partnerships.

Leonardo sat across from me in our private study, the glow of the fire casting sharp shadows across his expression.

“She’s pushing boundaries,” he murmured, tapping his fingers against his glass.

I exhaled, leaning back against the velvet cushions. “She’s trying to weaken us before she makes an obvious move.”

Leonardo smirked, slow, dangerous. “Then let’s make sure she knows we see her.”

I tilted my head, meeting his gaze. “No hesitation?”

He set his drink down, watching me carefully. “Never.”

I reached forward, resting my palm against his, fin

  • Blood and Dynasty   Epilogue: The Legacy of the DeMarcus Family

    Time had moved forward, but power remained.Rome still bent beneath our control, the estate stood as a fortress untouched by time, and the name DeMarcus was no longer just a name—it was a dynasty.A dynasty led by Orion.And as Leonardo and I watched the future unfold, there was no doubt in our minds.We had won.Orion grew into everything we had crafted him to be—sharp, calculated, undeniably powerful in presence and strategy.By eighteen, he had already taken control of several of our European investments, securing alliances that had once hesitated under our rule, proving that the foundation Leonardo and I had built was meant to last beyond us.The estate remained his sanctuary, but Rome? Rome was his kingdom.One evening, I stood on the balcony overlooking the city, watching as Orion paced the gardens below, discussing details of a new partnership with his inner circle.Leonardo stepped beside me, hands tucked into his pockets, watching Orion not as a father marveling at his son, b

  • Blood and Dynasty   Securing Orions Future

    Power had always been a constant—an unshakable force that shaped every step Leonardo and I took, every decision we made, every enemy we erased.But this was different.We weren’t just ruling an empire anymore.We were raising an heir within it.Becoming parents hadn’t weakened us—it had sharpened the intensity between us, heightened every glance, every touch, every unspoken understanding that threaded through the chaos of our lives.One evening, after negotiations had kept Leonardo locked in discussion for nearly twelve hours, I found myself standing outside Orion’s suite, watching as he slept beneath the soft glow of the overhead light.The door creaked slightly, and I didn’t have to turn to know who it was.Leonardo stepped inside, his movements slower than usual, exhaustion clinging to his frame, but his attention never wavered.His gaze landed on Orion first—silent, unwavering—and then it drifted to me.“Long day?” I murmured, my voice softer than usual, but not uncertain.Leonard

  • Blood and Dynasty   Untouchable

    Rome was silent, but silence had never meant safety.Dominic Renaud had been calculated in his approach—testing the edges of our empire, shifting alliances in Geneva, severing minor financial strings before attempting to cut deeper.But what made him dangerous wasn’t his strategy.It was his obsession with Orion.He wasn’t just coming for power.He was coming for our heir.And that meant war.No threat came close to our child. Not Dominic, not anyone.Our security measures were beyond elite, designed to ensure that Orion would never be within reach of outside forces.Immediate Adjustments to Orion’s Safety:His private wing became untouchable. Entry points reinforced, the corridors redesigned to eliminate vulnerabilities. Only Leonardo, myself, and his personal guard had access.A rotating team of our best security stationed within the estate. They weren’t simply bodyguards—they were silent protectors, trained to anticipate threats before they materialized.A fail-proof escape route b

  • Blood and Dynasty   What it Means to Rule

    Rome had bowed beneath our rule, Milan had been reforged in blood, and our enemies had learned the price of testing the DeMarcus family.But dominance didn’t end with territory.It needed permanence. A legacy that could not be erased.And now?Leonardo and I weren’t just ruling—we were creating something eternal.The walls of our estate had been built for empire—for deals struck in the dead of night, for war planned between the turning pages of history, for control that never wavered.But now, one wing was being redesigned for Orion.Every room, every corridor, every adjustment spoke of protection, training, and the weight of inheritance.The Heir’s Quarters:Located within the most secure section of the estate—accessible only to the inner circle.Fortified walls, hidden surveillance, a space designed for safety without suffocation.A private terrace overlooking Rome—so that Orion would always remember the city he would rule.The Education Wing:A study curated with texts on political

  • Blood and Dynasty   Knocking out the Competition

    Elena had made her move, and she had done so with blood.The retaliation wasn’t subtle. It wasn’t calculated the way she thought it was. No—it was desperate, reckless, and meant to force our hand before we could solidify our growing dynasty.But she had made a mistake.Because we weren’t just rulers protecting an empire anymore.We were parents ensuring that no one threatened our child before they even took their first breath.And that meant there would be no mercy.It came without warning.One of our key businesses—a luxury establishment that had ties to our financial web—was turned into a battleground.Eleven dead.Four of them ours.The reports came in quickly—names, final movements, the way bodies had been found. But it wasn’t the faceless casualties that sealed Elena’s fate.It was who she had killed.Matteo Romano, my father’s former advisor, the man who had stood beside me during my rise to power.Luciano DeMarcus, Leonardo’s distant cousin, a minor player in the family—but sti
