All Chapters of A Destiny Written in Blood: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

With a single strike, one of Scarface's eyes was ruined.Scarface let out a shrill scream, clutching his eye as he staggered backward, blood pouring through his fingers.Dominic didn't retreat. Instead, like a madman, he lunged out from behind the table, slammed Scarface to the floor, and began smashing his own head into Scarface's skull again and again.All around them, Scarface's crew stood frozen in shock.Dominic was practically throwing his life away!Dominic's forehead was soon slick with blood, but he didn't care at all. From the way he looked, he was ready to crack Scarface's head open right there.The others finally snapped out of it. One of them rushed forward and punched Dominic in the head."You damn lunatic, let go of our boss!"The rest piled in, surrounding Dominic and attacking him together.But Dominic seemed unable to feel pain. He kept his grip locked on Scarface, taking every blow without dodging.At that moment, Dominic had only one thought: Even if he di

Scarface didn't die in the end, but he would be bedridden for the rest of his life.Dominic's sentence was immediately doubled.But he didn't care at all.After spending half a month in solitary confinement, he was sent back to his cell.This time, the guards were smarter. They escorted him back personally and reinforced security around the cell.Dominic sat on one side of the cell. The other seven inmates sat huddled on the opposite side, staring at him in fear.All seven of them had been Scarface's men, but not a single one dared mention revenge anymore.Dominic sat quietly for a moment, then suddenly stood up and looked at them."I heard you all wanted to kill me to avenge Scarface."All seven jumped in fright and waved their hands at once."No, no, absolutely not!"Dominic's expression did not change as his gaze swept over them."You've probably heard about my situation. My parents died because of me, and I don't plan on living much longer."But dying alone is lonely.

Hart let out a bitter laugh."I really underestimated you," he said. "I never thought you'd be this sharp. I taught you every survival rule myself, and you turned every single one back on me."He narrowed his eyes. "But how did you know I was gonna make a move on you?"Dominic's gaze flicked to the bag at Hart's side."You already know the answer," Dominic said evenly. "Everyone in this prison is afraid of me now. There's nothing that happens here that I don't hear about."Two weeks ago, you had someone sneak in a dagger and a bottle of concentrated sulfuric acid."Hart stiffened."Th-that doesn't prove anything."Dominic didn't raise his voice."I couldn't figure out why you needed sulfuric acid," he said. "But when you showed up with that bag and tried to escape with me, it clicked."You planned to use the acid to destroy my body and make it unidentifiable. That way, you can pass it off as yours and disappear."In other words, your helping me was just laying the groundwork

What Dominic overheard at the food cart eased his nerves a little.For now, law enforcement believed the dead body belonged to him. That meant the search was aimed at an older fugitive, not him.As long as that misunderstanding held, there was no reason to panic.After finishing his breakfast, Dominic walked away as if everything were normal.Glen and the others were still eating. When Dominic stood up and left, no one even glanced his way.enforTheir attention was fixed on elderly suspects.Any older man who passed by was carefully examined. A few men wearing hats were even stopped and told to remove them so officers could check their faces.Young people like Dominic, however, were waved through without a second look.Dominic entered Flatstone and checked into a clean, respectable hotel directly across from the police station.Hotels didn't require identification, so he registered without any trouble.From what he had learned in prison, fugitive searches usually focused on c

In the southern part of Flatstone, Dominic walked along the cracked concrete road, with the occasional dog barking in the distance.This was the most run-down part of Flatstone, barely any different from the countryside.His childhood friend, Hector, lived here.Hector's father had a bad leg, and his mother worked at a textile factory.Years earlier, when his mother was laid off, she and Hector's father set up a small vegetable stand to scrape by. Life was hard.Dominic's family was slightly better off, and back then, they had helped Hector more than once.Hector was smart and good at studying. But with a younger brother and sister to support, he had to drop out early and go to work.He later helped manage a small arcade for someone with a rough background and slowly got mixed up in that crowd.The day Dominic received his college acceptance letter, Hector got drunk and cried, shouting that Dominic had to finish college no matter what.But Dominic ended up framed and imprisone
