Raphael sat back in his armchair as thought back to his previous conversation with Chris. He had called him in the wee hours of the morning to discuss the details of Emile’s discipleship.

Raphael was a recluse especially during the period of time when he went into creative hibernation. He would literally shutdown the world around him, but he didn’t have such requirements for anyone else. The reason he insisted the same for his disciple was solely due to Chris’s request.

  • 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   And what crimes exactly are we committing under the ‘guise’ of training?

    Chris Jnr and Emm were waiting eagerly for Chris’s visit. Unlike other times, their intentions weren’t pure. Their heads were full of ideas… ideas that needed approval.“Daddy…”The duo called out in unison and jumped into his outstretched arms, just like when they were toddlers… conveniently forgetting that they were no longer that small.“Daddy’s precious treasures…” Chris laughed, lifting them effortlessly and spinning them around as he always did. Some things never change. And to him, they never would.Emile descended the stairs, a blissful smile adorning her face as their innocent, warm laughter filled the hall. This was her home. Her gaze softened as they settled on the man who brought warmth and colour to her life.Chris’s eyes met hers. Words passed between them without sound. And in that silence, there was no empire. No weight. No consequence… just them.He walked towards her, tenderness lighting his expression. “Wife, how are you feeling?”“They are well behaved.” Emile smile

  • Never to look back   Then remind them who they owe.

    “Boss, there is a call from our agent at the UN office.” Night Blade announced over the PA system.Chris had just leaned back, eyes half-closed, already halfway home in his mind. His features tightened ever so slightly, displeasure flickering across his face.Home had been within reach.It rarely stayed that way for long… there were always things that dragged him back…“Shall I decline?”Chris did not answer immediately. He rarely needed to. His silence alone was often enough. Night Blade was about to decline, however, in the next instance, his voice came through---“…Put it through.”A second later, the phone beside him rang. Chris didn’t lift the receiver, letting the call run on speaker instead.“My Lord.”“Make it quick.”A pause. Careful.“The secretary has requested your assistance regarding a… conflict in the region. It’s escalating. Civilian casualties are----”Chris’s expression tightened “You know my rules.”The agent hesitated briefly before adding, “there are many innocent

  • Never to look back   Signing up for this job, you didn’t think you were being god’s angel, did you?

    Daniel and Emile had dinner in silence before Emile excused herself by saying she was tired and went upstairs to sleep. Daniel waited for about an hour before going upstairs. If she was awake, he planned to tell her that he came check up on her, to see if she was comfortable or needed anything. If s

  • Never to look back   Have your wings grown strong enough to negotiate with me?

    Carl drove straight from Daniel’s house to the hotel close to the safe holding building that Lenin had asked him to deliver the payment card that he received from Daniel. He guessed that Lenin was probably waiting for this money to start over as well, but he didn’t care. What he wanted was his life

    “That reminds me, how is Emile? Any news?” Master finished his bowl of soup and asked about the matter that he was most concerned about.“Don’t ask about her.” Min scowled; both his and Lai-Li’s face darkened at the mention of Emile.“Why? Didn’t you two like them?”“Not anymore.” Min turned his head r

Although Emile and Daniel’s life looked picture perfect, only Daniel knew that they had not breached the gap, the invisible wall that existed between them.Emile was also getting confused; she knew that she had loved Daniel since the age of 15 and yet, now the
