Novel & Cerita The Black Swan Helmsley

The quiet calm of the office shattered as the deafening, thunderous roar of heavy helicopter blades whipped through the air, shaking the glass frames. Emma’s smile vanished. She spun her chair around toward the ocean-facing windows. Thick gusts of wind whipped across the upper terrace as a sleek, matte-black helicopter bearing the stark, unmistakable crest of the Walker Global Conglomerate descended toward the resort’s private rooftop helipad. Emma stood up slowly, her heart dropping like a stone into her stomach. It can’t be..

A high-end, ruined mess. "Pull it together, Gal," he muttered to his reflection. He followed the scent of fresh coffee and expensive tobacco toward the kitchen. He heard voices—low, feminine, and sharp. He stepped into the doorway, his boots silent on the marble. Gammer "Gam" Hayes was at the table, her hands trembling as she clutched a mug. Opposite her sat a woman who looked like she’d been carved from ice and dipped in gold. Lydia Blackwell.

Blake Industries. The name on the document felt impossible. Blake Industries. For a moment… No one in the room spoke. Ryan leaned closer to the page again. “Okay.” He blinked slowly. “Now that’s weird.” Daniel nodded quietly. “Yes.” Emily looked at Alexander. “Sophia’s company was funding Helios?” Alexander’s eyes hardened slightly. “It appears so.” Ryan rubbed his forehead again. “So let me get this straight.” He pointed at the document. “Edward Knight builds Helios.”

Helena finally worded her shock to her fiance who was busy typing something on his phone. “My empire,” He answered, raising his eyes at her. Helena blinked. “This?” She motioned towards the building with her finger. “...is your empire?” Evan pushed his phone onto his pocket and gave Helena his full attention. “This is my shady world, Helena. It is as ugly and dangerous as this shattered building. Darkness is synonymous with my business but it's grand. And soon you are going to witness this grandness.” Helena gulped and kept gazing at him. Now she was more apprehensive imagining what interaction she was going to have in his world. Richard opened the door for him. “Capo.”

Whispered conversations cut short as I passed. I walked to my desk. Helena was there, waiting. Quiet. Sharp. “Morning,” she said. No pleasantries. Just business. “Morning,” I replied. “Something’s coming,” she said softly. “And it’s personal this time. Not corporate.” I blinked. “Personal?” “Someone close to Mr Blackwood,” she said. “Someone who could destabilise everything if handled incorrectly.” My stomach tightened. Ivy had her schemes. The board had their manoeuvres.

“Wolves are relics of the past. If the balance is broken, if the Guardian is removed from the equation, Dante Blackwood will become the monster the city already fears. And then we will have the justification needed for the total extermination of your kind. Humans will rule the land once more, and we will be the architects of that new order.” Helena’s involvement in the supernatural plot had just reached a systemic scale. She realized Richard had been nothing more than a pawn, a distraction used by conspirators like Malachi to drive Dante away from her. Without the Alpha’s protection and without the Thorne anchor, the Blackwood pack would spiral into self-destructive violence that would justi

They didn't care about Helios' screaming; immediately, they picked him up and kicked him into a hole that they had already dug out. "I'm sorry, Mr. Hector! I'm really sorry!" Helios said in despair. "I have an important piece of information in exchange for my life! Harvey's the boss of Sky Corporation that has been kicking up a storm in Wolsing lately!" Hector was stunned. But after that, his indifference gave way to a gentle smile. "That's valuable information, but it's not valuable enough for your life. Bury him."

The woman was about to protest but the man just gestured her to keep quiet. He tsked before following him. They entered the private elevator and the man beside him suddenly felt uneasy. He just ignored him remained serious. When the elevator suddenly move, Helios cursed. "What the fuck is that? Are we flying or what?!" he asked the man beside him. He don't know what is happening since he got locked inside the mountaon for too long and all is new to him. "S-Sir... I'm sorry. Sir Helion's office is at the topmost floor of this building so-"

“Don’t go near that helicopter.” “But Alvin” “That’s not his aircraft.” Ashley frowned. “What do you mean?” Dominic pointed toward the insignia. “That helicopter belongs to Black Horizon.” Patrick slowly smiled. “So…” “You recognized it.” Ashley’s brows knitted together. “What is Black Horizon?” Dominic answered without taking his eyes off the aircraft. “The private military company that has protected my father’s criminal empire for decades.” Ashley’s heart sank. “So Alvin…” “Doesn’t know.” Dominic replied.
