Society X Novels & Stories

"We organize events, support charitable causes, and generally help each other navigate the complexities of our roles." I nodded, still trying to grasp the full extent of what she was saying. The idea of such a group was foreign to me, but it made sense given the social and business networks Xavier was part of. These women, with their polished appearances and poised manners, were an integral part of that world.

And this strange refreshing feeling of dating someone, not in my usual circle. I had always been cautious about who I slept with—they were always people at the same school or university or doing work in tech or finance. The same usual crowd. So, needless to say, Xavier was refreshingly different. We were on the phone for hours last night, and he told me about his classes in political science. His modeling gigs supported his school fee. He wished to work for an NGO after he graduated. He told me about his dreams to save the world and other life aspirations and that he couldn’t wait to see me again. Oh, how interesting. And how different his life was from mine. He was different from anyone I k

Cash added. “People can’t be taken if they don’t want to be. If he wants to be with Brittany, then he’ll be with Brittany. If not, then that’s that,” I countered. “And you’re just willingly giving up?” Wes asked skeptically. “I'm not giving up on anything. Again, only people who want to be taken will let themselves be taken," I pointed out. “You’ve got guts,” Cash commented as Six and Brittany came back. She looked sad as she walked over to her friends. “So?” Cash asked Six once he’d sat down. “I did what I should’ve done two years ago,” Six replied.

“Maybe she saw how foolish I was, how ignorant I was to plain details, details that ought to have been recorded for decades now. I thought, wishing I could go back into the past and find out what she was talking about. The Xavier Enterprise is no mere organisation, It is a foundation laid on the sweats and suffering of warriors,fighters and men alike. It is a jungle of survivors, victors,men not old wimps on wheelchairs and “I ought to have known that at the very least”, I thought out loud, all the time feeling more stupid than I initially did.

It was a perilous journey, fraught with danger and uncertainty, but we remained undeterred. With each revelation, the puzzle pieces started to fall into place, revealing a chilling truth that sent chills down my spine. Xander's involvement with the underground secret society ran deeper than we had initially imagined. He had been not just a member, but a key figure, entangled in a web of power, influence, and manipulation. The more we learned, the more I realized the gravity of the situation. The consequences of Xander's actions extended far beyond his own life. They had the potential to disrupt the delicate balance of society and endanger the lives of those we held dear.

The large lonely mansion which oozed nothing but affluence did not only house these money making halls but also had rooms above which caged workers who made this money and the bosses who ruled over them. The workers were members of X-habit, a crime conglomerate whose activities were no lesser than running guns, doing drugs and the like. The Big Four: Steven Chase, Baron Sage, Iphan Carter and Kane Richmond bossed over the conglomerate, with Steven as the head, more of a Godfather.

Xander’s P.O.V. Xander is not happy with the atrocities that have been going on in his company. The current news on the ground is greatly spoiling the market for him, and making customers lose interest in his technology company’s product. However, every customer who has been patronizing the company, knows what they want, as they have been able to identify which products are original and fake. It is just that like one being able to differentiate Chinese fake products, from American products.

Most of them were mocked and treated awfully by the society, including the government. So, gradually, the people with supernatural powers decided to form a union - a group - where they could be together, and work hand in hand as family. They called it - the X-family. People with supernatural powers who were usually intimidated by the society, decided to join the group, so they could have a sense of belonging. Everything was moving on well, but when the population became much, the group started splitting. So many of them went ahead to open their own groups, but they still remained under the X-family.

The Phoenix Society, we discovered, was an organization dedicated to preserving knowledge, fostering innovation, and ensuring the betterment of society. As the night unfolded, we found ourselves drawn deeper into the society's inner workings. We met individuals whose expertise ranged from technology and science to art and philanthropy. Each member brought a unique perspective and skill set, united by a common purpose. Seraphina took us under her wing, becoming our guide through the labyrinthine corridors of The Phoenix Society. She shared stories of its illustrious history, the groundbreaking discoveries made within its ranks, and the countless lives it had touched and transformed.

Xavier tried to put some sense into her. "This will be followed by wealthy families like you or that, Mia. But, in our middle-class families, it won’t ever happen. We have to live and accept life while standing in the middle of the road," she answered. No, Julia, what you are thinking is not right. Do you think we have money, so we won’t be bothered by this so-called society? No, we are always bothered—in fact, more than you all. Do you know why?" Xavier paused and gave her time to think, as he expected. Julia turned to look at him once and started thinking about it. After a while, she shook her head and said,
