The War Goddess Returns

A baby’s cry cut through the sterile room.Just once.Thin. Fragile.Then silence.Fear surged through Scarlett as she strained against the chains binding her wrists and ankles to the hospital bed.“Where’s my baby?” she asked, her voice barely steady.The nurse hesitated.Then, quietly, “We’re sorry. He didn’t make it.”....“Commander?”Scarlett opened her eyes.The private jet cabin sharpened into view.For a brief second, her breathing remained uneven. Then the emotion vanished, buried beneath the same calm control she had worn for years.Howard stood a respectful distance away.“We’ll be landing any minute now.”Scarlett turned toward the window.Below, the city stretched beneath the clouds—the same skyline that had once destroyed her.Her reflection stared back at her in the glass.Cold. Composed. Untouchable.Outside—“Clear the terminal!”The command rang across the airport.Within seconds, armed personnel moved into position with flawless precision, locking down the arrivals

The Difference

James looked like he was seconds away from snapping.“Scarlett… Hayes.”Her name came out through clenched teeth, each syllable heavy with barely contained rage.Just as he was about to lose control, Sadie reached out and gently tugged on his sleeve.“James… maybe I should talk to her,” she said softly, her voice trembling. “At the end of the day… I’m the one who hurt her first.”The sight of her teary, guilt-stricken face made his chest tighten.In his eyes, Scarlett had wronged Sadie over and over again—she had even cost them their child.And yet Sadie had never blamed her.Instead, she blamed herself—for “taking him away,” for everything that had happened.How could someone be this selfless?“Please… let me talk to her,” Sadie whispered, fragile and pleading.James hesitated for a moment, then finally stepped aside.The second she stood in front of Scarlett—Everything about her changed.The tears disappeared. In their place came a cold, mocking smile.“Scarlett, that prison unifor

Monster

That single word—“Mommy…”It hit Scarlett like a shockwave.Her heart jolted.For a split second, she was dragged back four years… back to the tiny life she had lost the moment it entered the world.If her child were still alive—He’d be about this age now.The thought tightened painfully in her chest.As she looked at the boy, her gaze softened without her realizing it.A storm of emotions surged through her—Longing. Grief. Guilt. Tenderness.Feelings she couldn’t quite name… all tangled together.At that moment, Howard walked over, his eyes flicking between Scarlett and the boy.“Bo—Boss… is that your kid?” he blurted, stunned. “He looks just like you. Same eyes, same face—it’s like a copy-paste.”Good grief.The leader of Obsidian Unit… the infamous War Goddess…Had a child?If word of this got out, it would send shockwaves through the entire underworld.Scarlett shot him a look.“I don’t know him,” she said evenly. “He’s probably just scared and mistook me for someone else.”Sti

I'll Repay You

Scarlett was about to dodge—When suddenly—A hand caught her wrist.Before she could react, an arm wrapped around her waist and pulled her hard against someone’s chest.Her forehead hit something solid.Warm.Firm.A man.Her eyes darkened instantly.She moved to break free—But the arm around her tightened, pulling her even closer.Her expression turned cold.Was this guy seriously trying something?Her hand slid to her waist, fingers closing around the hilt of a hidden blade—But before she could strike—He let go.Scarlett stepped back immediately, every nerve on alert as she looked up—And froze.For a split second, her pupils shrank.The man standing in front of her was striking.Sharp features, as if carved from stone. Strong brows, a straight, defined nose, and thin lips that naturally carried a hint of severity.There was an effortless elegance about him—The kind that couldn’t be faked. The kind that came from power, from upbringing, from standing at the very top.But what c

Her Family

Inside the other car—Theron watched Scarlett’s vehicle disappear in the rearview mirror, then looked away.“Find out who she is,” he said. “I want a full profile.”Rhys nodded from the driver’s seat. “I’ll take care of it.”Still, the request didn’t sit right.Theron had never shown interest in women. Not once.So why her?It wasn’t just her looks. That wasn’t enough to catch his attention.There had to be more to it.Theron lowered his gaze to the boy in his arms.Theo’s skin burned with fever. His breathing came shallow and uneven, each breath weaker than the last.This wasn’t new.Four years ago, Theron had found him in a trash bin—barely alive, poisoned, clinging to whatever strength he had left.They saved him.But not completely.Since then, the fevers kept coming back. Ten days at a time. Sometimes longer. Each one worse than the last.The doctors hadn’t sugarcoated it.If this kept up—Theo didn’t have much time.“Any updates on Dr. Nyx?” Theron asked.Rhys shook his head. “N

Revenge

Theo lay unconscious in the hospital bed, his small face flushed with fever. An IV line ran into his arm, the steady drip the only sign of control in an otherwise worsening situation.When Rhys stepped inside, he immediately felt it-The tension.Theron sat beside the bed, silent, still, but the pressure around him was suffocating."Sir," Rhys said quietly.Theron stood without a word and walked out. Rhys followed, and the door clicked shut behind them."Any update on Nyx?" Theron asked."We reached him," Rhys said carefully. "He refused."The air shifted.Rhys didn't pause."But I tracked his movements. He's heading to the capital-someone important is here. He's already booked a flight. Arrival should be tomorrow afternoon. I'll have people waiting at the airport.""No."Theron's voice cut clean through the hallway."I'll go."Rhys blinked, then nodded. "Understood."Theron didn't explain.He didn't need to.If Nyx was as difficult as they said-Sending someone else wouldn't be enoug

Biological Mother

As they walked out-Scarlett suddenly slowed, then stopped.She turned to Howard, something clicking into place."I just remembered... didn't the head of state give me a company here in the capital?"Howard blinked, caught off guard. "Yeah. An entertainment company-SH Entertainment. It's one of the biggest in the city. Actually, one of the biggest in the country."He frowned slightly. "Why?"She hadn't even wanted it back then. If anything, it had been pushed on her.Scarlett repeated the name under her breath. "SH Entertainment..."Then she looked at him."Transfer it."Howard didn't follow. "Transfer... what?""All of it," she said calmly. "Put everything under Louie's name."He stopped walking."Wait-seriously?"The disbelief was obvious."That's not just a company," he said, staring at her. "That's the top entertainment firm in the capital. People fight for a piece of that. And you're just... giving it away?"Scarlett barely reacted."It's just a company," she said. "It doesn't ev

Kidnapped

The next day-Scarlett checked the time. Dr. Nyx should be landing any minute."Howard, stay here. I'm heading to the airport to pick him up.""I can drive you," Howard offered immediately.Scarlett shook her head as she opened the car door. "I beat up Colin yesterday. He's not the type to let that go. Stay here and keep an eye on my family."Howard hesitated, then nodded. "Got it."The moment Dr. Nyx stepped off the plane, he pulled out his phone and called Scarlett."Kid, you there yet?""Traffic's bad. Five minutes.""Alright, I'll wait."He hung up and, with nothing better to do, started scrolling through videos on his phone.A minute later, he sensed someone approaching."Finally took you long enou-"He looked up.Not her.Instead, a tall, sharply dressed man stood in front of him-composed, imposing.Dr. Nyx frowned. "And you are?""Theron Cross."The name clicked instantly.So this was the man-CEO of the Cross Corp.Dr. Nyx's expression cooled. "You've got quite the network. Tra

Poisoned

Upstairs-Dr. Nyx had just been shoved into the VIP room.He spun around immediately, glaring at Theron."You've got some nerve," he snapped. "Fine-keep pushing. But when she gets here? You're going to regret it."Rhys almost scoffed.Break in here?With nearly a hundred guards downstairs?Not happening.Even trained units would struggle to get through that.Theron ignored the exchange entirely and stepped toward the bed.The boy's face was burning with fever, his breathing uneven.It had been going on all night.No more time."Dr. Nyx," he said, voice steady, "I apologize for how this was handled. But the child is innocent. I need your help."Dr. Nyx snorted. "I already told you-no."He glanced at the boy-Then paused.His brows pulled together.'...Wait.Why did this kid look so much like Scarlett?'He looked at Theron.Then back at the child.Hold on.Don't tell me-Before the thought could settle-A loud crash echoed from outside.Fighting?Already?That fast?Rhys turned sharply

Extreme Approach

Scarlett's head snapped toward Theron."Who did it?"His expression darkened immediately, his voice turning cold."His mother."Scarlett froze."His... mother?"Disbelief filled her eyes.A mother had poisoned her own child?"How could she do something like that?" Scarlett asked, her fists tightening at her sides.She had lost her own child-lost them forever.And this woman had chosen to harm her own.He was just a kid.Whatever hatred she carried should've been directed at adults, not him.Theron noticed the anger in her eyes.The outrage. The grief.It was clear she truly cared about Theo.And in that moment, the last trace of doubt disappeared.Whatever resemblance there was, Scarlett couldn't be his biological mother.If she were, she wouldn't look at him like that-with such raw, unguarded protectiveness."I haven't found her yet," Theron said. "But I'm guessing she was planted by someone who wants to get to me."Scarlett let out a sharp breath."Cowards," she muttered. "Using a k
