The Birth of Sofia's Legacy

Morning sunlight streamed through the silk curtain gaps in Thorne Manor’s master bedroom, illuminating Liora’s sleeping face.

But the peace didn’t last long.

She felt a warm weight on her waist and steady breaths against her neck.

Mavric was no longer sleeping on the sofa or at the far edge of the bed; the man now held her as if Liora were a treasure that might vanish if he let go for even a second.

Liora tried to shift, but the embrace only tightened.

    The Sins of the FatherThe snowfall in London had begun to ease, but the piercing cold still enveloped the city. Inside Thorne Manor, the atmosphere felt suffocatingly tense. Although Liora’s victory at the global press conference had sent Thorne Group stocks soaring, for Mavric, it was merely a temporary triumph before the greater storm arrived.The message from the mysterious figure regarding "That Man"..the man suspected to be Mavric’s biological father had transformed the Dragon into an even more reclusive and dangerous entity.Mavric stood in his dimly lit study, illuminated only by the glow of satellite monitors. Before him, Leo Vance stood perfectly erect."Have you arranged everything, Leo?" Mavric’s voice was hoarse, heavy with the weight of a dark secret."Yes, Sir.”The private jet is ready to depart in one hour.Destination: Norilsk, Siberia. Our security units have already isolated the 'Black Raven' prison sector. “Not a single Syndicate agent can enter there without

    The Queen's ShieldThe morning in London had never felt this silent to Liora Thorne. Inside the spacious master bedroom, the winter sunlight struggled to pierce through the heavy silk curtains. Liora sat on the edge of the bed, watching Mavric as he still slept. Her husband’s face looked calm, but Liora knew that behind that tranquility lay a storm of identity ready to consume them both.Mavric was not a Thorne. He was an orphan from Russia, molded by Eleanor to become a false emperor. Meanwhile, Liora the girl who had always been considered an outsider in this family was the true, pure-blooded heir."Why are you looking at me like that, my Queen?" Mavric’s voice was low as he slowly opened his eyes. There was no shock, only a sharp gaze filled with dark devotion.Liora caressed Mavric’s firm jawline. "I was just thinking... how many lies you have carried alone for the past fifteen years, Mav."Mavric caught Liora’s hand, kissing her palm with an intensity that made her shiver

    The Forbidden TruthLondon welcomed them back with a stiff atmosphere. Inside the medical jet flying across the European continent, the silence in the main cabin felt deadlier than the snowstorm in the Alps. Mavric Thorne lay on the medical bed, his body covered in bandages, yet his sharp eyes never left the figure of Liora sitting across from her, staring blankly out the window.Liora felt as if her entire world had crumbled. The adoption document she found in Sofia White’s black box felt like burning embers searing her jacket pocket. Arthur Thorne was Liora’s biological father. If that was true, then the man who had been her husband, the man she loved with a passion that defied logic, was her half-brother.The thought made her sick. Every time she remembered Mavric’s touch, every possessive kiss, and every night they had spent together, an overwhelming sense of guilt crashed down on her chest."Liora," Mavric’s voice broke the silence. It was hoarse, yet still carried an unde

    The Valley of WhispersThe Alps on the outskirts of Zurich welcomed the arrival of Alexander Thorne’s private jet with a blinding snowstorm. The sky, usually a clear blue, was now covered in thick fog, as if nature itself was trying to hide the sins of the past buried beneath the eternal ice.Liora Thorne looked out the window of the helicopter taking them from the airport toward the steep slopes of the Gotthard Pass. Her hands, covered in black leather gloves, trembled violently. Down there, on a sharp bend plunging into a ravine hundreds of meters deep, was where her world had been shattered ten years ago."You don't have to do this, Liora," Mavric’s voice sounded low, piercing through the roar of the helicopter blades.Mavric sat right beside her, holding Liora’s hand with a grip that was strong yet protective. He wore a thick tactical jacket, complete with a utility belt concealing firearms and satellite communication devices. His eyes never left Liora’s face, monitoring ever

    The Digital IntrusionHeavy rain battered London, turning the view outside the large windows of Thorne Manor into a gloomy, grey canvas. Inside the opulent master bedroom, the warmth they had shared just hours ago had evaporated, replaced by a chill creeping down Liora’s spine.Liora lay frozen, listening to the steady rhythm of Mavric’s heartbeat beside her. The man was fast asleep, his arm still wrapped protectively around her waist, as if even in his dreams he feared his wife might vanish. But Liora’s mind was far from peaceful. The mysterious message on her phone played on repeat like a broken record.“Why is the name 'Sofia White' on the elimination list of Thorne’s shadow units ten years ago?”Slowly, Liora slid Mavric’s arm away. With extreme caution, she slipped out of bed. The cold marble floor met her bare feet, but her heart felt far colder. She walked toward Mavric’s private study located in the east wing the very heart of the entire Thorne digital empire.Normally,

    The Last BanquetThe Shard building, towering high against the London skyline tonight, looked like a giant torch illuminating the darkness. The top floor had been transformed into a futuristic banquet hall for the launch of Project "New Era"..a global satellite integration promised to reshape the face of world security. Beneath the sparkling crystal chandeliers, prime ministers, tech CEOs, and European nobility gathered, unaware that they were standing on a ticking time bomb ready to explode.Inside the VIP dressing room, Liora stood staring at her reflection in the large mirror. She wore a sapphire blue haute couture gown with an open back, adorned with thousands of micro-crystals. On her wrist, a silver bracelet coiled, looking like ordinary jewelry, but it was actually a portable terminal to access the core system of "New Era".The door opened, and Mavric stepped in. He wore a custom-made black tuxedo designed to hide a bulletproof vest underneath. The scar on his forehead fr

    The Ghost in the MachineThe medical recovery room at Thorne Manor felt so quiet, interrupted only by the steady beeping of the EKG machine monitoring Liora’s heartbeat.
