Chapter 1

I expected Velda Mercer to give me an explanation, since I'd entrusted my parents and little sister, Piper Wright, to her care all those years ago.On the other end of the line, her voice was cold and impatient. "I'm at the Hyporion Summit right now, Callan Wright. I don't have time for your lowlife family's petty drama."She didn't bother to ask where I'd been for the past decade and hung up without another word.I gripped the phone so hard that my knuckles paled. It seemed that ten years of my blood, sweat, and sacrifice meant nothing to her.Ten years ago, she was just a struggling college student relying on my financial support. But now, she couldn't even be bothered to talk to me.When his little brother, Jude Mercer, saw the way she shut me down, he grinned wickedly and grabbed Piper's phone. After throwing it onto the floor, he crushed it under his boot."Who do you think you are, acting all important? To my sister, you're nothing but a lowly animal!"My heart shattered a

"You've finally decided to turn your phone back on, Callan. I assume you're back with your family; is everyone doing okay?"Gunthar's booming voice came through the line. Each word sounded like a battle cry, warming my heart."There's a little trouble at home, General, but I can handle it." I swallowed hard, fighting back the crack in my voice. The last thing I wanted was to bring my negative emotions back to the unit.But Gunthar was a veteran of a thousand battles. He caught the strain in my voice, and his tone turned deadly serious. "Stay put. I'm coming to HC myself. It's high time the Sentinel's Edge plaque you earned sees the light of day."His words sent a stream of warmth rushing through my veins. I'd spent ten years guarding the nation's borders and earned that plaque with my blood and soul.With a sharp crack, Jude slapped the phone out of my hand and stomped hard on it. "You won't stop playing make-believe and calling the General, will you? You must think you're in so

"Me? Causing a scene?" I echoed.I looked at the elegant, flawless Velda and laughed. She was dressed in a custom-made gown worth millions of dollars, and the look she gave me was full of contempt, as if I were more disgusting than a pile of trash on the streets."Why didn't you tell me before coming back? And why are you at my company's project site, assaulting Jude?"Impatience flickered in her eyes and was soon replaced by her lofty, accusatory tone.I pointed at the flattened ground where my parents' graves used to be, then at the injured Piper. "I called you, and you hung up. Now, how is that my fault?"Velda faltered for just a second, then slipped back into her composure as a CEO. "The demotion was fully legal, but your family stubbornly refused to vacate."As for Jude, he's young and hot-headed, so you should be understanding. Now, apologize to him."Before she could finish, I cut her off and announced, "We're breaking up, Velda. It's over.""Excuse me? Are you trying t

By the time I reached Piper, a concrete slab was already pinning her leg to the ground. Blood soaked through her pants.My eyes were bloodshot. With both hands, I grabbed the edge of the slab to lift it with every ounce of strength I had."Help him! We can't let someone die; it'll tank the company's stock price!"Velda's urgent voice rang out, but the company's profits were her only concern.A few bodyguards finally stepped forward to help.The moment the slab was lifted, my heart stopped cold. A piece of steel rebar had pierced straight through Piper's calf, and she'd passed out from the pain.With trembling hands, I tore strips from my shirt to wrap the sound, the pain in my chest making it impossible to breathe. Her face was deathly pale, and her breathing was faint as blood continued to seep from her wounds."She should've watched where she was going. Now she's got no one to blame."Jude hopped down from the excavator and clapped his hands with a taunting grin. "Go on the

When Jude's bodyguards saw the armed soldiers, their legs gave out. They dropped their weapons onto the ground and hit the floor with their hands over their heads. I pulled myself off Jude's battered body. With the last of my strength, I gave Gunthar a perfect salute.His eyes glistened with tears as he gave me a firm, heavy pat on the shoulder."We're late, Callan. I'm sorry you and your family had to suffer, but from this moment on, I've got your back no matter what happens!"I couldn't hold it back anymore. Those words were everything needed to send tears streaming down my face. I dropped to my knees and hammered my chest. "I couldn't protect my family, and I've failed Talon Unit. I've failed the nation that raised me!"Gunthar and the soldiers behind him looked on, their eyes reddening. When they turned to look at Velda, Jude, and their group, their eyes were full of lethal, murderous intent.The unconscious Piper seemed to sense the shift in the air. Her eyes weakly flutt

Chapter 6

Gunthar's thunderous shout scared Jude half to death. As he raised his trembling hand, the pathetic sight reminded me of the drug traffickers Talon Unit used to corner at the borders ten years ago.Gunthar grabbed him by the collar and pointed at the plaque. "Open your damn eyes and take a good look. Who the hell gave you the nerve to tear down a First-Class Meritorious Hero's family home?"Jude had wet his pants from fright. He dropped to his knees, and his words tumbled over each other. "I-I didn't know! If I'd known, I wouldn't have dared touch him, not even in a million years!"I let out a cold laugh and picked up the crushed phone. "Earlier, you told me that Velda is the law, didn't you? Well, can she still save you?"He paled and broke down in tears. "I'm so sorry! I swear! I thought you were just some loser…"I crouched down to look into his eyes. "You said you were going to dump me and Piper into the river, so I'll give you that chance right now. Do you even have the guts

Chapter 7

Still in cuffs, Jude suddenly jolted awake and glared at me with bloodshot eyes. "If you're going to ruin me, I'll make sure we're going down together!"He broke free from the guards like a madman and sprinted toward the nearest excavator. The massive machine roared to life as he seized the controls and swung the bucket around to bring it crashing down toward my head.I instinctively dodged, only to realize that Velda had appeared at some point and stood right behind me. She stared at the oncoming excavator with no fear in her eyes, only a strange sense of relief.In the split second before the bucket came crashing down, I shoved her out of the way.The sheer force of the impact numbed my entire arm before blood started streaming."Damn it! How dare he fight back! Shoot him and take him down!" Gunthar roared.Gunfire erupted as the soldiers blew out the excavator's tires and brought the machine to a dead stop. Jude was pinned hard into the ground by several soldiers and struggl

Chapter 8

Piper's leg was fully healed a year later. Seeing her walk around the house finally lifted the weight that had been crushing on my chest. The team of medical specialists sent by the state had worked a miracle and healed her leg to a perfect recovery.Our parents' graves were relocated to a martyrs' cemetery. The gold letters shining on the headstone were a silent testament to the honor they deserved.Every time I visited, I would silently murmur, "Mom, Dad… I didn't let you down."I founded Apex Draconic Technologies with my military pension and a new patent. The company grew at a breakneck pace and turned into the industry's new powerhouse in just a year.As for Jude, he was sentenced to life imprisonment on multiple felony charges, with no possibility of parole. I heard that the other inmates educated him on proper behavior, and every day was a living hell for him.Mercer Group was charged with astronomical fines for multiple crimes, including tax evasion and embezzlement of s

Chapter 9

Velda was dressed in a plain business suit. She looked haggard and gaunt, but there was an unwavering resolve in her eyes.I was stunned. I hadn't seen her in a year, and she'd lost so much weight since then. Even her makeup couldn't hide the deep exhaustion in her eyes.The heiress who was once high and mighty was now nothing more than a project manager under Henry.Had she just saved Piper?When I noticed the handprint on Piper's face, my blood boiled with rage. I ignored Velda and grabbed Piper's hand before turning to leave."Callan, wait."Velda stepped in my way and continued, "The Somerset family isn't just after the project. They want to destroy you."I kept walking and coldly replied, "And what does that have to do with me?""They dug into your past with Talon Unit and uncovered the truth of what happened with Mercer Group back then," she urgently explained. "They want to seize your technology and crush you for good."Still, I said nothing. I didn't believe a single
