he says. I frown. They’ve demanded anything from me in the ten years I’ve been with the company. “Is there a particular reason I need to?” I ask. He nods. “One of the grandkids of the Jacobs, Aaron Jacobs nephews Asher and Aiden Wilder is in the NFL, and they want more people watching the game... They plan on buying the team if they win...” he explains. I nod. “Okay I’ll do it. But the day before the game I’ll be halfway across the country. I don’t know if I’ll make it back in time...” I warn him.

Once, I had believed an empire was something you conquered. Then I believed it was something you defended. Now I understood. An empire is something you cultivate. It is built in decisions no one sees. In boundaries you refuse to break. In love you allow—but do not depend on. My phone buzzed. A message from one of the Fellows. Thank you for showing us we don’t have to choose between power and self-respect. I read it twice. Then tucked the phone away. That was the inheritance. Not the stock price. Not the expansion.

Elara watched the city breathe from the penthouse window. Night lights blinked like promises that never kept. The room smelled of lemon and old perfume. Glass and steel held everything together up here. It fit Adrian—clean, sharp, cold. He came in without knocking. He moved like a man used to being obeyed. He took off his coat and did not look at her. He poured himself a drink with hands that did not tremble. “Elara.” His voice had no heat. “We sign tonight.”

The things that kept men like them in power. What started as a suggestion about visiting the new territory turned into something else entirely. I watched it happen in front of me like a nightmare unfolding in real time. "Your territory's gotten soft," The Mancini, Petro, said leaning back slightly, his gaze fixed on Enzo. A grin spread across his face like he’d just told a joke. "Can't even keep your targets anymore." The table went quiet. Enzo's jaw clenched. I saw it happen, the way his entire body went very still.

The original five-layer structure of Forladtt Land remained unchanged, but its usage had evolved. The first layer was considered the suburbs of the imperial capital. It served as a temporary residence for those who managed to enter Forladtt Land. Hundreds of mercenary forces had formed, occupying the entire layer across various universes. These mercenary groups, while appearing as spontaneous organizations, were secretly backed by different powers within the Jademora Empire, creating a lawless and brutal environment. They constantly battled for resources and territories, exploiting and plundering from the Greater Realms. Despite its chaos, many still yearned to enter the first layer, seeking

“The Drokan Empire serves only one god, Dorak Herra.” With a chuckle Prince Richard spoke, “Empire you say, you dogs have been scavenging and looting towns and growing kingdoms for years, with no Kingdom to call your own or to show for it; hiding in caves and mountains, is that what you refer to as your so-called Empire.” “Our present Lord is different Prince, Wengi iku peteng lan medeni banget (The night is dark and full of terrors.)” Zodiakal warned “Enough with your blabbering northern tongue, accept Christ and I promise you a peaceful death.”

"Too shiny. Too fast." "Aethelgard," Aradaa whispered. He felt the cold creep up his spine. "The Empire from across the water. They cut their link to the global network decades ago. They never felt the Reset. They’ve just been sitting over there, growing steel while we learned to grow grain." The ships began to circle, deploying swarms of black, insect-like Harvester drones. The pine-scented air turned acrid. "They’re looking for us, aren't they?" Kaelor asked. He stepped off the porch, his boots crunching in the frost.

“Why now? Why risk everything to surface after all this time?” The voice was quiet, deliberate. “Because the empire you stole isn’t as secure as you think.” Dominic’s heart beat a little faster, though he didn’t show it. “Empire or not, I’m still in control. You’re nothing but a ghost chasing a story long dead.” There was a pause, heavy with meaning. "I should have killed you when I had the chance" Dominic said through gritted teeth “You’ll see soon enough,” the voice said softly. “The past doesn’t stay buried forever.”

"They've been looking at it as a wolf den." I emerged into the dim light of the ash-wastes and walked straight up to Elias. I handed the Sovereign the ledger. "The Empire is dead, Elias," I said softly. "But the humans in the eastern territories watched you get the sky back. They watched three hundred Vanguard wolves break the sound barrier. They watched me catch a bullet made of the ocean." Elias looked at the merchant seals in the ledger, his jaw tightening as the betrayal sank in. "They are terrified of us," Elias rumbled, the sheer psychic weight of a betrayed king bleeding into the air.

a servant said respectfully. I followed him down a long corridor lined with masterpieces of art hundreds of years old. He pushed open a heavy oak door, revealing the back of a man standing before a fireplace. The moment he turned, I held my breath. This was no demon, no tyrant of rumor. The man before me had perfect features and deep eyes like the endless night. He wore a finely tailored black suit, his every move radiating an innate, aristocratic grace. "Elena Moonlight," he said, his voice low and magnetic. "Welcome to the Evernight Empire."
