All Chapters of LUCAN VALE: THE GHOST ASSASSIN: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Jason exited the Smith villa and headed straight for the Phoenix Cruiser, Elvis’s chosen meeting spot. But on the way, he made a call to Jamal for help. He knew Jamal was more than just a CEO. The man had his hands deep in the Eclipse Organization’s real operations, and that included command over a private military company. Jason intended to put that to good use.Rescuing Vanessa? That would be the easy part, even if that bastard had a dozen trained men with him. But this wasn’t just about a rescue. This was about making a statement. Elvis needed to understand exactly how bad he’d messed up.He dared to kidnap Jason’s fiancée?That was a direct challenge. And Jason wasn’t the kind of man to take that lightly.He might not be in love with Vanessa, but she was still his fiancée. And that meant she was under his protection. And by doing what he did, Elvis had just signed his warranty to a world of hurt.The call connected. Jamal picked up on the first ring.“Mr. Wolfe, what do you need

The guard's warning caught Elvis off guard. His grin disappeared for a split second. He didn’t expect Jason to actually be here, he had assumed that, the nobody would refuse to do it because he’d be too afraid to come here and face him. However even though he had come, Jason had made a grave mistake, because he just walked himself into a death trap. Well, that's what Elvis believed.Just as quickly as his grin disappeared, a dark chuckle bubbled from his chest. “Well, well, well,” he muttered,directing his gaze at Vanessa,“Seems I was wrong. The little dog of yours finally came out of hiding.”Vanessa's face lightened up with hope when she heard the mention of Jason. He was here for her? She was relieved. However at the same time she worried that Jason's attempt to rescue her would be futile. He seriously couldn't stand up against Elvis and his men. He was just one person against more than a dozen of Elvis's men. She had seen Jason fight, but still his skills wouldn't be enough to

He had been hoping that Elvis would take care of the problem for him, make sure Jason never saw the light of day again. But here he was, standing tall, not a scratch on him, and with Vanessa safely at his side. Marvin was bitterly disappointed.Lance, noticing the same thing, scoffed loudly. “What is he doing here? I thought you were supposed to exchange yourself for her?” His voice was heavy with disgust. He would have liked it more if Jason had just died at Elvis's hands. Honestly, that’s what the whole Smith family was hoping for. They’d all been praying for it, thinking it would rid them of the unwanted complication that was Jason. With him gone, they could finally save their company by convincing her to get married to Marvin.But now here he stood, unharmed and with Vanessa safe and sound, and Lance could feel his stomach twist in frustration.Jason descended the ramp with a grin. He knew they weren't happy to see him unharmed, but he wasn't bothered. “No need to worry, father-

The Montgomery family members believed Jason had to die. They couldn’t let him walk away without consequences. If word got out that they’d spared him, it would send the wrong message—that they were weak, that they could be crossed. Their legacy, their influence, everything they had built over generations would begin to unravel. Elvis’s face paled as he listened to his family discuss Jason. They were making a big mistake. Elvis had learned his lesson and didn’t have any desire to go another round. “He nearly ended my life,” he said quietly, hoping they'd understand what a danger Jason really was. Caspian ignored Elvis. “We’ll make an example of this Jason Wolfe,” he said at last. Elvis sighed, not bothering to say anything else. No one was going to listen to him now. However, maybe that wasn’t such a bad thing, he debated himself. Elvis was having a change of heart all of a sudden. Sure, he was afraid of Jason, but he couldn't ignore the fire burning within him, that need for r

The young woman’s eyes softened with relief as she stepped closer. “How are you?” she asked, her voice was a mix of warmth and disbelief. This really surprised Jason, because he didn't know her at all, yet she was acting like they were familiar. But wait, the more he looked at her, the more familiar he thought she looked. Jason blinked, still caught off guard. “I’m… fine,” he replied, cautious. “Do I know you?”She looked a little offended by his question. How could he not recognise her? Was he joking? “You really don’t remember me?” There was disappointment in her tone, but not anger more like someone who had hoped for something different.Jason studied her face. She did seem familiar. And her voice was too, however when he tried to remember anything, nothing came up. “Nope.” He answered her casually. “Perhaps, you should refresh my memory.”Her eyes softened further, as if she understood his confusion. Then, with a gentle sigh, she said, “I’m the woman you rescued from kidnappers
