Metropolis Novels & Stories

BETH’S POV : New York City, the city for flashy broadways, exclusive shops, expensive apartments and high flying business tycoons is where the land of opportunity lies. Or so people think. To me it’s the city for depression, unaffordable rent, unbearable traffic, screaming people, bustling roads, gamblers and many more. And in this concrete jungle lies one of the most world famous multi national telecommunications company; The Marino telecom. I looked at it in awe letting my eyes roam the gigantic building as the taxi I boarded drove past. People were walking in and out , everyone looking so busy and professional.

"This gentleman has mistaken me for someone else. "I'm Adia, a designer from Macondo. I'm not your Isabella." My tone was distant. Seeing me wipe my shoulder, Corleone realized I was disgusted by his touch. A sharp pain struck his heart. He tried to grab my wrist, but security personnel rushed forward and stopped him. At that moment, Leo ran onto the stage as well. He grabbed my hand tightly and turned to roll his eyes dramatically at Corleone.

Chapter 75: The City of Glass The blizzard died as we hit the city limits. The Capital was not a hidden village in the woods. It was a sprawling metropolis of glass and steel that rose from the valley floor like a jagged crown. It was the secret heart of our world.

Capital City, a city with a long history and rich culture. It was also ranked as the world's largest international metropolis. In recent years, due to the geographical location of Springfield, its economy had gradually begun to catch up with Capital City, but Capital City's overall ranking as the world's number one metropolis was still unbreakable. When David arrived in Capital City, he did not contact the Special Task Force and Falcon immediately since it was already evening. Instead, he planned to go to a hotel, rest for a night, and then contact them the next day.

Bennett informed me. “That much?” I asked wide-eyed. “You have no idea!” they both said. Once we’d gotten over our shock, we finished up our meal before heading to Metropolis, which according to Bennett, was only about two hours away in their wolf forms. True to his word, two hours later, I could see the modern city ahead. Bentley explained to me that Metropolis wasn’t as big a deal as Bennett was making it. It was just like a busy city, so basically where the fun really is because apparently life in the castle is a bore.

As the sun rose over the horizon, painting the sky in shades of orange and gold, Jonas felt a sense of grim satisfaction. The engame is upon the whole of Metro City. The hunters had become the hunted. And Metro City was about to find out exactly what happens when you push a "loser" too far.

Some ambitious members even have started to make their movements as they want to seize Strix's position and assets. Strix's monopoly business in Morwich has left him with huge assets, and it’s a huge pie that anyone would like to take a bite of. If Strix has an accident, Metropolis will be torn apart.” Maisie frowned. Strix's group was the largest in North Ancora. He did not have any children in his life, so many people were interested in his position and his huge fortune. After all, no one could resist such a big pie. Maisie picked up

Jericho scrubbed a hand over the stubble coating his jaw, "I, honestly, don't have enough space here for it." "Same," Ace snorted, amusement setting his hazel orbs ablaze, "Miranda is so close to having my balls because of the stuff I've got in our apartment. She's not thrilled about having so many weapons laying around the house." "I don't think anyone would want to have that amount of weapons lying around the house. Someone could get hurt," I piped, cutting Ace a deadpan expression. Normal people had addictions to buying way too many shoes or clothes. Ace bought too many guns and knives, and probably any other weapon he could get his hands on.

To be so beautiful and yet so painfully unaware. I felt giddy for some unknown reason. It was at times like this, when you focus on the little things, that the world suddenly looks different, maybe slightly better. It was such a rare instance. Manila is a very crowded place, with barely any space for greenery. Among the tenants of this apartment, I was the only one who appeared to be interested in indoor gardening as well.
