2026-09-30 15:00:35That was the third thing: my jewel was not some workaday fellow. He was very much different from who I knew him to be.
His command, right in my presence, sealed everything for me.
And last but not least, from Vega’s expression and the lack of blood on his hands, they had not caught anybody.
That was keen planning, execution, and tactical proficiency that no fucking architect possessed.
My gaze moved to my head of security.
He was indeed pale.

And now, instead of walking out, instead of going to ground as I would have bet he would, he was standing there. Casually.Right where I should have been. Making calls I should be making, showing me, just as he had in Malta, that he was capable. That he could match me.But he didn’t know me.Awareness that ice was cold did not necessarily prepare one for the feeling of getting freezer burns.He had information that could turn my empire upside down, turn me into a fugitive at the very least from my own government. And there was no way what he had presented was everything he had access to, so he had the potential to do worse.But he was trying to wield a blade with no handle, bare-handed. Such acts only led to personal injury.He would burn with me? I smiled as I watched him – live. Those soft lips moving, my practiced eyes following the words that were coming out at a low volume from his mouth.I tasted his tongue on mine.“Oh,

My gaze went up to the camera I was aware of. I placed my hands in my pockets and stared at it for a long while.My gaze came back down to the old man.I glanced at the heart monitoring machine and the oxygen tank he was connected to. Small tubes were in his nose, not a full nose mask.I pressed the call button.A nurse entered in twenty seconds.I smiled at her. “Father hasn’t woken up at all?” I asked quietly.She turned to the bed on the other end of the room, then back to me. “You’re Mr. Sinclair’s brother?”I smiled and pulled my earlobe. The ear facing Leon’s camera.“Not exactly, but I’m practically family. I have some things to bring up. For the occupants,” I gestured at Adrian, “and any guests. Would it be alright to do so today?” I pressed gently, smiling at the young nurse.She smiled at me, her eyes widening slightly.“You’ll need to ask the doctor about that, but,” she said, her cheeks reddening, “he’

I knew Marcus would be busy as it was his turn now, but this was still my game, and if Leon thought I would hide, he was fucking insane.He had my people under his thumb, or so he wanted me to believe. Well, I wasn’t exactly without hands of my own.At six a.m. I sent Marcus a message and left the hideout.Of everyone in the city, in the world, I was the only one Leon Ralis could not harm. And if he tried to, that was fine. I had already prepared myself long before Florida or Malta.I would burn with Leon if I had to. The only thing I would not do was vanish on my knees.That decision had brought me to a place I had not thought I would be, with a man who was not my father; not my brother; not my friend.I was still conflicted about what Adrian Sinclair meant in the grand scheme of the universe and the gods that controlled it.What kind of bane he was, or would be.Whether my life was even real, or I was just in some waking nigh

That was the third thing: my jewel was not some workaday fellow.

We can seize them all,” he was saying, his face damp, his hands trembling.“You mean… scour the city for them?”“Yes, Sir!”“This… city?”“Mr. Ralis!”“You mean I should show my hand, my neck, and my back, out there, in the cold, and just hope that none of the six groups watching us notice?”His entire frame was shaking now.I eyed him slowly.“If anyone wants to give chase, let it be our watchers. We,” I stood, my gaze on my

Right in my face.I stared at him.He kept laughing, his eyes on me, but there was no mirth in his gaze.His body rocked, shaking mine. My hand went back to his shoulder as his face turned redder by the second.His men were around us. The doctor was kneeling on the side; the rest were on their feet.“That… fucking… insane… bastard,” Marcus chortled. “That absolute, fucking, maniacal, piece of shit! What?!”He laughed, shaking his head, still looking at me with dead eyes.He stood. I sat up, still trembling but alive, my head clearing; the doctor was on his feet, his eyes now on the Boss.“The fuck?” Marcus breathed.He started up again, bent at the waist from the effort.I got my feet under me. My body was aching, but I could take it. My gaze drifted to Barry. He, like all the others, was staring at Marcus Sullivan.==========Marcus POV.I didn’t believe my ears.I was used to bad peop

I pointed at the screen. “What’s the meaning of this, Leon?!” I screamed, coming back to my purpose as my mind resisted the revelations he had just thrown at me.“What are you trying to do? Threaten my family?” I was using my number one weapon – my words. I reached for every ounce of strength I had left and pushed my focus into them.“Do you think you can stop me with this?” My voice shook, but I refused to let it break.“Do you think you’re the only one with nothing to lose?” I pointed at the drive. “I have your info, Leon! I’ll burn down your fucking empire! If you –”He was in my face, grabbing my cheeks with one hand. I tried to shake him off, but my body was not responding. My secondary weapon was out of commission.I glowered at him as he shut me up, his grip clamping my jaw.I jerked my head, but he held me still, staring down at me as his eyes searched mine.“I’ll make the same request I did the first time you entered these wa
