Chapter 100 Different Roads

Liam allowed himself to cry everything he had been holding in for days, maybe weeks. He let it all out. But once the tears dried, he pulled himself together. It was time to go back to Euradia. He had been away from his son for far too long. He'd left to protect him, to keep him safe from danger, but now it was time to bring him back into his arms. The next day, just after they docked, Liam extended a hand to the old ex-military man beside him. Leon shook it firmly, and Liam asked only one question. "Do you have any family holding you here?" Leon looked confused. "Sorry… what?" "Family. Here. Do you have anyone that ties you down?" Liam repeated. "I need someone I trust watching over Derrick. And I can't think of anyone better than you." Leon paused, then shook his head. "No, I've got no one here. As long as I've got a boat wherever I go, I'll be content." "You can have a damn cruise ship if that's what you want," Liam said without hesitation. "Get your papers ready. We'

Chapter 101 No One But Me

After the attack, they had kept moving east, as fast as they could. "Are we going somewhere safe?" Runi asked while expertly wrapping the bullet wound Omar had taken for her. She still couldn't bring herself to call him Your Excellency. "Yes. The safest place there is for them," the Nubian murmured. "If we don't stop, we'll reach Los Ganas by dawn. A ship will be waiting to take us to Makkar Island." Runi took a deep breath. "And what happens after that?" she asked. "There, they'll be safe. But if any of them want to start over elsewhere, we'll relocate them," Omar explained. "We have secure places in Franconia, Portia, Albaryn, and Grazier. We help them learn the language, the culture... build a new life." She looked at him curiously. "Can you really do that?" "Come on, I'm an Velharaian prince—heir of ancient Nubia. There's nothing I can't do," he replied with a smirk, then winced as she pulled the bandage tight. "Well, Mr. Prince…" she said, narrowing her eyes, "wa

Chapter 102 A Treacherous Snake

[One Year Later] Liam closed the last folder of signed documents and leaned back in his chair, mentally exhausted. He was about to head home, his mind weighed down with memories and relentless, bitter thoughts. His father had reached out to him again. And Liam had no desire to speak with the man he held responsible for nearly everything that had gone wrong in his life. "You alright?" The calm, deep voice of Cassian pulled him out of his thoughts. "Yeah… yeah, it's just my father again," Liam muttered, rubbing his temples. "This time he sent a letter, begging me to meet and talk." "You're not going to?" Cassian asked, settling into the seat across from him. "I know exactly why he wants to talk," Liam said coldly. "He's in financial ruin and he's crawling to me for help." The very thought twisted like a knife in his chest, pulling up all the old pain and fury that had consumed him ever since the day Alcott died. One sentence—just one—had been enough to reveal the truth. And

Chapter 103 Still Looking For You

He turned to leave, but his father stopped him. "Just one chance..." he whispered. "All I'm asking for is a chance to meet my grandson. Please, Liam..." Liam looked away and pulled his arm free. "No," he said firmly. "I won't let you meet him. I won't let you hurt him. Now go—and be thankful that blood is thicker than water, or you'd be even deader than Alcott right now." Garrett Harrington had no choice but to turn around and get into his car. Liam didn't feel sorry for his father, but he couldn't help the bittersweet sadness. He had wanted to find a way to forgive him. But now he knew—it was impossible. He could never forgive the man who had torn his family apart. He went home, told Leon to double the security, and devoted all his time and attention to his son. He spent every possible moment with him—playing, singing songs, helping him learn to walk, or reading him stories even if he didn't understand them yet. His son's loving smile was Liam's only source of comfort. A

Chapter 104 A Lesson in Diplomacy

"Get up, come on! Out of bed, Liam, let's go!" Those shouts would've had Liam on high alert in a second—if they hadn't come from a voice he knew all too well. "What's going on, Cassian?" "What's going on? Snap out of your Sleeping Beauty act—it's way too late for naps!" the Velmarkian said as he barged into the room like he owned the place. "Try taking care of a baby who's just figured out he can walk on his own," Liam laughed. "You've got no idea how exhausting it is to hunch over and chase a kid around..." "Yeah, yeah... once this is over, I'll take you to Notre Dame so you can cry it out. But get moving—we need to get to a place ASAP!" Cassian urged him. Liam wasn't big on napping, but during the rare quiet moments when Derrick stayed calm, he tried to catch some rest too. Being a single dad wasn't easy, but honestly, he had no intention whatsoever of changing that status. "Do you have a tux? Please, for the love of God, tell me you have one—it's way too late to go buy o

Chapter 105 If They Can Get Through...

The Nubian chuckled to himself and accepted the polite, formal greeting the two men offered with a small bow. "Your Majesty... we were wondering if you might spare us a minute," Liam said, his voice kind but firm. And for some reason, Runi's first instinct was to reach for the pistol at her hip. Not because she wanted to shoot him, but something about the moment put her on edge. She couldn't even imagine that the unease came from something much deeper… It came from the fact that the man standing in front of her was the father of her child. Omar took a deep breath, gave a polite nod, and after the introductions, gestured for them to take a seat across from him. "How can I help you?" "We're looking to travel through the Horn of Zamunda by way of the Narel River," Liam said straight to the point. "You want to go upriver?" Omar asked. "Yes, using medium-draft cargo ships. Nothing that would affect the environment, I assure you." Omar nodded slowly, but his face clearly show

Chapter 106 Ambush in the Desert

Runi nodded as she paced back and forth across the room, phone pressed to her ear. "Yes… yes, you have my permission. Check in constantly and don't let them out of your sight." But the one who wasn't letting her out of his sight was the Nubian. She was anxious—something very rare for her. "Are you alright?" he asked, stepping closer with a worried look. "Well… I don't know, honestly, I don't," she murmured, tugging at the collar of her blouse like she couldn't breathe. Omar came closer and took her hand. "Runi, why are you so uneasy? What's going on?" he asked gently. "You've been out of sorts ever since we came back from Euradia." Runi held his gaze for a few seconds. She understood exactly why he was asking—and she knew she couldn't dodge it. Finally, she let out a deep sigh and answered: "I'm worried. I've been having these strange dreams lately, and I think it's connected... connected to..." "To what, Runi?" "To the men we met in Grazier," she whispered, looking

Chapter 107 Impure Thoughts

By the time their boots touched the ground, Liam and Cassian had managed to find cover in the chaos and confusion—but not without injury. Liam had been shot, though thankfully, it wasn't serious. As the smoke began to clear—and with it, the gunfire—they realized the pirate caravan had been completely overwhelmed. Most of the raiders had been killed or scattered across the desert. Liam got to his feet slowly, watching that woman emerge from the haze, barking orders like a general at war. Something in his chest tightened. "Thanks for saving us," he murmured, hurrying toward her. She met his gaze head-on with those piercing eyes. The woman nodded slowly, then looked at the wound on his arm. She gave a signal to one of her men and pointed toward the helicopter. A few minutes later, the chopper landed, and Liam and Cassian were helped aboard. "Wait—" Liam stopped one of the soldiers as he realized the woman wasn't coming with them. "She's not coming?" "No," the soldier said.

Chapter 108 The Commander

It went without saying that Liam slept terribly. He dreamt of Max, of Runi, of a dense fog that clouded his mind. In it, the two women stood side by side, looking at him with disappointment. He woke up sweaty and exhausted, but forced himself to get through the day. He had a presentation to give to the prince, and everything depended on it—his entire mission to send aid up the Narel River and continue searching for Max. When the time came, Liam moved with a mix of anxiety and determination. He knew it wouldn't be easy. He and Cassian were led to one of the palace offices, where the prince was already waiting—flanked by Runi and half a dozen of his royal guards. Runi looked different that day. Her uniform was a pale eggshell white, but still covered her from head to toe, leaving only her eyes visible. Liam had prepared his pitch down to the last detail. He spread his plans across the large desk in front of the Nubian prince and began to speak. He laid out his proposal for transp

Chapter 109 Max

Liam couldn't deny it anymore—what he felt for Runi was more than simple curiosity. That very afternoon, he and Runi ended up waiting together in one of the palace's conference rooms. They were both there to meet with the prince and discuss the Narel River aid proposal again. The room was quiet, and Liam, unable to hold back, turned to her. "How long has it been since you last took that collar off?" he asked, his tone gentle but curious. She stared at him for a moment, as if trying to read his intentions, then silently looked away. "Why don't you want to talk to me?" Liam pressed, stepping closer. "Because Runi is far too selective about who gets her attention," came a voice from behind him. It was Omar. "And she only raises her voice to give orders in battle or to correct soldiers when they mess up in training," the prince added, stepping forward with a teasing smirk. "So if you want to hear her speak, you'll have to pick one of those two. Since we're not in a war… how a
