At Daniel’s end, morning came, just the same as every other day for the last 4 weeks, however it was destined to be the day that bought forth Daniel’s worst nightmare.

Daniel and Michelle were having breakfast when the doorbell rang. Daniel raised his head, turning his gaze towards Michelle, he lifted his eyebrows enquiringly. They had been here for close to a month and had never had any visitors call on them; they had hardly met anyone even when they went on their evening walks. It was like wal

  • Never to look back   I don’t take reckless risks

    Chris stood by the hatch, eyes closed, yet acutely aware of every subtle shift in the air around him.Night Wing stood at his side, as always, silent, ready.Hendrick watched for a moment before stepping closer.As the jet approached the cloaking screen, Chris opened his eyes and gave a slight nod.Night Wing moved immediately, releasing the latch.Chris and Hendrick vanished.The jet continued forward, repeating the same manoeuvres as before… unseen, untracked.“Any sign of trouble, alert me immediately,” Chris said through the mind link, opening the channel to all Night Empire soldiers.“What next?” Hendrick asked as they landed lightly atop a treetop.“Get the rest of the children out.”Hendrick gestured between the two of them.Chris hummed in acknowledgment.Hendrick arched a brow.“We’re not using conventional methods,” Chris added, a faint frown forming. “We don’t have time.”“I thought you didn’t take risks.”“I don’t take reckless risks,” Chris said, a smirk tugging at his li

  • Never to look back   If they believe they’re the only ones left… who would they fear?

    Far from the peace of Níngjìng Valley, high above uncharted international waters, the Night Lord’s stealth jet glided through the darkness, unseen, untracked.“According to Suk-Ju’s coordinates, we should be close to our destination,” Night Blade’s voice cut through the overhead PA. “But there’s nothing but ocean in sight.”Chris lifted his gaze from his work. Three holographic screens hovered before him, streams of data cascading as his fingers moved faster than the eye could follow.Across the cabin, Hendrick stirred from meditation and rose to his feet. He didn’t speak at first, just stood, stretched slightly, and walked to the window.A beat.Then---“Che.” A smirk tugged at his lips. “If this is their idea of secrecy… I’m disappointed.”Chris exhaled softly, almost amused.“Still the same,” he murmured. “You judge too quickly. Didn’t Master teach us never to underestimate the enemy?”Hendrick glanced back, one brow raised. “And you think too much.”That earned a faint chuckle.“M

  • Never to look back   Brilliance, however hidden, still draws attention.

    Hua Yueren was waiting at the secret entrance, the place reserved especially for the Night Lord and other mysterious guests, along with Bai- Min and Lai-Li when Marcus and the others arrived.“Grandpa Hua,” Marcus greeted, the other children echoing him in chorus.“Good child …. good… good… good.” Hua Yueren beamed, laughing like a contented Buddha as he welcomed them. For all his warmth, Hua Yueren’s gaze lingered a fraction too long on each child, counting, measuring… as if confirming something unseen.“Everything has been arranged according to Sixth Master Walter’s instructions.” Bai-Min reported stiffly.Penny and Felicity immediately stifled their laughter. They were well acquainted with Uncle Neil’s Master and Senior brothers, and Bai-Min’s stiffness was almost comical to them.Bai-Min blinked… once, twice… before realization dawned. His ears flushed red, and he lowered his head in embarrassment.“Ignore him.” Lai-Li chuckled, “Junior brothers Min and the rest are eagerly waitin

  • Never to look back   Big treasure won’t leave little baby behind for long.

    Silence enveloped the room, the only sound was the occasional tapping of Chris’s fingers against the armrest, a habit he fell into when deep in thought.No one interrupted it. Not even little baby.Elites from the Night Lord’s empire entered quietly and took their places, standing as still as shadows, awaiting their lord’s orders.Chris finally spoke, not loudly, not urgently, but with the authority of a ruler whose words were not meant to be denied.“Every child moves under one umbrella. No exceptions.”“Night Vigil will coordinate with Hua Yueren and organize the logistics.”“On it,” Night Vigil’s voice came through the intercom.A pause.Chris turned his gaze to Night Wing. “Assign protection units. Four to one ratio. I want full coverage, not fragments.”His eyes shifted to Marcus.“You will lead the entire operation.”Marcus opened his mouth to argue, then lowered his head in acknowledgment.“If you feel the younger ones need more than four, assign accordingly.”Marcus nodded.“D

  • Never to look back   Did he just get big treasure and little treasure in trouble?

    “Big treasure… little treasure…!”Bruno’s cry broke through the room as he charged forward… only to launch himself at them, knocking both to the floor.He clung to them, sobbing, smearing tears, and absolutely no small amount of snot, all over them.“There, there…” Emm murmured softly, patting his back.The two of them exchanged a brief glance.They had forgotten about their little tail in their rush to intercept their father’s mission.The guilt showed.“Little baby… we’re sorry,” Chris Jnr coaxed, awkwardly wiping Bruno’s face. “We were reckless.”Bruno only sniffled harder, clinging tighter.Right then----Marcus stormed in.As if the current chaos wasn’t enough.“What happened to big treasure and little treasure?!”He made a beeline straight for Chris, not sparing the room a glance.“You promised me… no harm would come to them at Devil Island! I begged you to stop them until I got back!”Chris didn’t even flinch.He chuckled.Then casually raised a hand… pressing it against Marcus’

  • Never to look back   Do you want to break your promise?

    Tranquillity never belonged to Rose Villa.Not with the Demon Emperor residing within… and certainly not with his little tyrants running free under its roof.And yet, against all reason, it would occasionally grace the villa with its presence.The villa had known a few weeks of uninterrupted calm.Four, to be exact.Enough time for danger to grow bored.Enough time… for something to go wrong.Chris Jnr and Emm had set off to Devil Island two days after Chris returned from Guyama. Miles, Penny and Vincent followed as well. They wanted to see what the treasures were up to and with the little overlord following like a little tail, no one could stop them.Night Wing and Abbey had just returned from their honeymoon. Abbey was animatedly sharing stories with Emile, while Chris and Night Wing sat beside their wives, quietly soaking in the rare, blissful calm that only family could bring.However, the moment was shattered in an instant, the culprit, the unlisted phone by Chris’s side that star

  • Never to look back   Children have their own fate.

    Back at the Walter residence, Elizabeth was restless as a bee in a bonnet. Although Adam didn’t know the reason, he knew that there was something bothering Elizabeth ever since she got back. He waited until today hoping that she would confide on her own accord, but she didn’t. He decided that he wou

  • Never to look back   Go to your room and reflect on what you did wrong.

    Chris Jnr and Daniel were having breakfast as Emile came downstairs. There was no change in her expression or attitude, she had her usual gentle smile as she greeted Daniel and Chris Jnr. Both were watching her with hawk eyes, one to know if his little experiment yielded results and other to decide

    “How is daddy doing?” Chris Jnr asked little treasure in concern as he walked back to their classroom holding hands.“He’s still holding it together, feigning a happy face to keep me happy." Emm pursed her lips with a helpless expression before she leaned closer and whispered in her brother’s ears "H

    “Who looks for the fortune of a dead child?” Chris snorted without answering the question, but it clearly showed his arrogance and absolute disregard for political correctness.“You…. you… this is an act of foreign incursion… disrespecting our laws……you….” Zhou Yan’s personal bodyguard trembled with
