Jace's POV

To be honest, I've never seen people so damned like them. We end this now? How?! Going all out on the widow now? At this critical point?! We barely have men! We barely escaped her last hit and despite the fact that we've hit her hard, to be honest, I really don't think we stand a chance against what's coming.

A flash of that card that night flickered in my eyes and I saw it's ugly face, hiding beneath the shadows, growling in the background and it's painful hunger made me shiver—death! It calls me. That's why I really don't want to go to battle, I feel it everyday, every time, it haunts me. Bloody hell!

Funny part is I really don't how to tell them. They don't even notice I'm not following anything they're saying. They're blinded by revenge and shrouded by stupidity. One thing is certain, this deep feeling burning inside me, it's not unreal. Someone, definitely someone among this circle is going to die.

As for Matteo, I'm very sure he's gone at this point and it pricks my

    The Calm Before the New StormJace's POV I must say, there's beauty when you feel this inward elevation, this peace that takes you to the next phase of your fucked up life, that's the overwhelming joy that floods my soul now. After the whole drama with finding Dimitri’s prodigy and the whole framework stuff, it turned out that the cyber attack was just a mere virus Dimitri had prepared and I mistakenly allowed the program to run.As for the child, there's no child, none that we know of. Dimitri never had a child, we've made lots of research and even got into that monastery. The walls were made of dark secrets, the type that could destroy lives in just a simple blink. And from the information we got from there, we control the underworld, I mean every corner listens to us, except you want to end up getting your hands dirty with us.The warm grasp of the morning breath was overwhelming and my mind was clear and clean of any worries. The overwhelming energy consumed my essence and fixed

    Jace’s POV The Heir of Frost“Lucian, we have to do something about this,” I clamored, pacing around the room endlessly and breathing heavily.The air around us was tense and the gnawing feeling of something unknown that totally caught us off guard overwhelmed me. I can't let Lucian down, I can't let the Vanguard down.He was somewhat calm, but his chilling expression left me reeling. What's going on in that big head of his?His unusual calm and the silence struck me like lightning and I was barely breathing because at this point, I don't think I know how to any more.“Lucian, say something!” I snapped because this thing I feel inside, it's weighing me down.He straightened up and looked at me once again, clearing his throat loudly and narrowing his eyes.“Mmm,” he muttered and that was all. He stood up sharply and stared blankly at me, and just hissed.Come on! It ain't my fault!He walked away and as he reached for the door, I held him by the shoulder. “Don't walk away from me!” I

    Jace's POV The Garden of GlassBy now, Lucian must be drunk and definitely out. Damn it man. I'm sick and tired of this fucking life. The weight of responsibility for the Vanguard is crushing down hard on me and to be honest, I really don't know what to do anymore.The cyber attack was just a warning and a test, I'm sure whoever was behind was only messing around with me and testing my abilities. I still can't forget how shaken I was before Lucian, how I thought I'd lose, how I thought I'd fail him. Shit man!I kicked my legs into the air, the frustration crawling beneath my skin and anger biting my heart.My soul bled with rage like lava and the heat simmering inside my skin left me trembling.Suddenly, my phone screamed only to add to my anger. Who the fuck is that?! I moved swiftly, my feets thumping hard against the ground and I snatched the phone from the table, my sweaty face folding into a scary scowl.My expression softened, just a little bit when I saw the caller.Seraphina

    Jace's POV The Phantom War“Jace, what's the meaning of this?” Lucian queried, his eyes full of dismay.To be honest, I really didn't have an answer to provide and I felt like the whole world had crashed on me in that moment. We were under cyber attack and the tension in the room was burning hot.The hacker “D”, I swear I find him,and when I do, I'll make sure I deal with him.Just last night, he ordered two assassinations through the Vanguard secure network and it was done, he even ordered a hit on me and that was when my attention was called.The whole night till this hour, it's been a fierce back and forth battle with him and I ain't gonna lie, he's damn good at this. I've been battling with securing firewalls and the next thing, he's ordering more hits, laptops over here are seizing, multiple transfers and because of those silly and irregular acts, most of the Vanguard accounts have been frozen for safety.Sweat beaded my head as my fingers mercilessly and tirelessly punched the

    Lucian's POV Poisoned RosesI must say, trust is a word I still don't understand to this moment. One moment, I feel it, the next, I feel the pricking feeling of betrayal.I hate myself, I hate my paranoia, but I can't help it. I trust Jace, but with the way things are going, I don't know what I'm holding on to any more. It kinda feels I'm clinging to a drowning ship…Yes, the shipment was ordered by me, but he changed the transportation procedures and the warehouse. That's not all, he also didn't tell me about the rumours about Matteo's code resurfaced.Hmmm…I really don't know if he's forgotten that I'm still Lucian Moreau. But it breaks me anytime I see him hide things from me. I haven't been able to confront him about anything, but we're slowly drifting apart. We barely talk to each other, he just sees me and I see him and that's all.We don't fuck! We don't! I'm stuck with my blue balls…One thing I've learned from my experience is when the seeds of betrayal are planted, they st

    Jace's POV Empire Reborn “Lucian, don't forget, we have a charity gala to attend tonight. Don't shut yourself out man…” I warned as my fingers tapped the keyboard softly. His face was pale and the weight of responsibility weighed him down. I can't say I feel his pain, but it aches me whenever I see him this way. But well, it's been good though, apart from his annoying drinking and excessive smoking habit, it's been good. The Vanguard has evolved and despite the fact the he's the king, I'm the face of the new era and so far, he has come to accept it. According to him, he has used the old ways as tried his strategies and they haven't seemed work quite well, so he decided to finally give me a chance. Nothing happens in the Vanguard operations without my order and to be honest, I still miss Matteo. Most cases that I have to work my ass out for these folks to understand, he would have just done it… Wherever you are, I hope you find peace, old friend. We had purchased a new shipmen
