The formation lit up under him and his body exploded before reconfiguring. "So much power." The man mumbled in joy. He slowly went through his entire life. All 6,675 years of it.

Two-story, white, with flowers sprinkled around the outskirts, the home looked old but looked after. Lani could tell that a lot of love had been put into the home and that made her smile instantly. Dotted around the house, trees swayed nonchalantly to the soft summer breeze. The sun shone brighter here and placed a heavenly glow on the grass that encircling Scar's home.

About my life. Growing up under my father. The criminal empire. Meeting you. Choosing to change. Building this family. All of it." He spoke faster as he warmed to the idea.

By showing that change is possible even when you come from the worst circumstances."

I started running off, making him chase me. Life might not always be smooth, but as long as I have love, my kids, and my family, everything else will fall into place.

Wow! From the title itself, I could tell that dad started from zero when he built his business.

I could hear them loud and clear, but it's as if their voices are coming from a long way off. The shit used to scare me when I was younger. That's why I started searching for answers to explain just what the fuck I am. It's also how I learned to control myself and tame whatever it is that might be flowing in my blood from the monster. "What are you two having for breakfast? Cardboard on toast?" That's what Sheila calls the egg white omelets the girls are into these days. Egg whites with vegetables and fresh mozzarella. Me, I like yellow in my eggs. "We have to watch our weight, our birthday is coming up, and we have to look good." That sent the conversation in a whole other direction which h

For the first time, hesitation crept into my heart. It was not because of Phoebe.
