A chilling, almost sinister atmosphere hung over the plaza in front of Delgado Tower.
Anyone familiar with Dash knew him as Lucinda's husband, the father of Travis and Rylee. Beyond that, little was known about this quiet, reserved man in his middle years.
Twenty years ago, Lucinda was the picture of grace and success in Plemouth, only in her early twenties. She had transformed Delgado Enterprises from a small venture into the city's largest conglomerate, and her meteoric rise quickly caught the attention of Plemouth's elite.
People couldn't understand how someone as accomplished, beautiful, and brilliant as Lucinda could be married to Dash, a seemingly meek and unambitious man.
Despite the countless attempts by powerful figures from all walks of life-governr moguls, and even underworld bosses-no one ever succeeded in making a move

cinda.
Whispers began to circulate about a mysterious figure always lurking in the shadows, a master of unmatched skill who ensured that any threat to Lucinda was swiftly neutralized. After many failed attempts, even the most influential people in the city learned to keep their distance from Lucinda and Delgado Enterprise.
When the Dixons and the Cravens set their sights on Delgado Enterprise, it was during a time when Lucinda had withdrawn from public life for three years, caring for her ailing husband.
But with Dash's ruthless actions and his powerful background now known to all, it became clear: The enigmatic protector of Lucinda was none other than Spike.
The revelation hit hard, especially for those who had previously sought to bring down the Delgado family They realized they had narrowly escaped the same fate as the Dixons and the Cravens.
If they had pushed too hard, they might have ended up like Camden and Carl-dead.
Madden and Finnley's doomed fate only intensified the terror that gripped the city.
Many had thought that Lucinda, a single mother clinging to her company, was vulnerable. They were wrong. Lucinda's husband, Spike, wasn't just any man-he was a national hero with immense power and influence. The balance of power had shifted dramatically.
The very men who had sought to crush the Delgados had instead slammed into a wall of resistance.
Now that Spike had returned with vengeance in his heart, the elite of Plemouth were filled with dread.noveldrama
Whispers flew as people hastily distanced themselves from the fallen families, terrified of being linked to their downfall.
Finnley and Madden, now realizing the magnitude of their mistake, could only regret their actions.
If they could turn back time, they would never have dared to challenge a national hero.

With Delgado Enterprises in ruins, the family shattered and Spike's children and grandchildren either dead or missing, the possibility of Spike showing any mercy seemed utterly impossible. Even Finnley and Madden struggled to accept that there was any hope left.
Though they were unfamiliar with the famed Twelve Great Warriors from Dragon Palace, they had heard the stories.
The legendary warriors were said to be unstoppable, mythic figures.
Never had they imagined they would face one of them
In the past, Finnley and Madden had secretly plotted, confident they could crush anyone they deemed beneath them.
Now, they understood just how wrong they had been.
Madden, watching his son perish before his eyes, glared at Spike in outrage. "You're a national hero! How can you disregard the law and kill my son?"
"The law?" Spike sneered. "I don't need laws to deal with evil. Honor, fame, success-none of that matters
to me!
"All I know is that the Dixons will pay for plotting against my family."
Before Madden could utter another word, Spike's knife flashed, slicing his throat open.
Blood sprayed out, splattering onto Finnley's face.

Finnley fell to the ground, desperately begging, "Dash, no-General Delgado! I didn't know you were a national hero! Please, spare me ... I'll do anything...

"Shut up with your pleas!" Spike hissed, his voice dripping with contempt. "You scum don't deserve mercy"
With a single, brutal step, Spike crushed Finnley's neck twisting it with horrifying force.
The plaza was frozen in terror. No one had ever witnessed such a brutal, merciless act.
Meanwhile, Lily, lying motionless on the ground, was paralyzed by fear. With the Dixons, Finnley, and Carl all dead, she wondered if she would be next. Would Spike show any mercy to the Cravens? She dared not make a sound, desperately trying to remain invisible in the hope of avoiding becoming his next target.
Spike slowly turned, his bloodshot eyes burning with rage as he locked onto Lily. He was like a predator, -covered in blood, a weapon in his hand, stalking her with terrifying purpose.
Just then, a Mercedes SUV screeched to a halt in the plaza, its tires screeching and shaking the ground. Two bodyguards rushed a middle-aged woman and a small child toward Robin. "Master Ramsey, Mr. Joshua is here!" they announced.
Lucinda froze, her gaze locking onto the child in the bodyguard's arms.
Spike halted in his tracks and hurried toward them. With a large hand. Spike took the bov from the

bodyguard, his face softening with emotion as he stared at the child.
"My grandson is alive!" Spike exclaimed, his voice thick with joy and relief.
He then bowed before Robin.
"Master Ramsey, if not for you, the entire Delgado family would have been destroyed by them..."

Robin helped Spike up, patting his shoulder. "General Delgado, you've suffered enough. Stand up and take care of the aftermath for your son and daughter-in-law
Spike wiped away his tears, then handed Joshua to Lucinda, grabbing the nanny, Mia, by the neck.
"You treacherous woman, I treated you like family, and you betrayed us in our time of need!"
"Please, spare me!" Mia pleaded, struggling to break free.
"I had no choice! Lily forced me to take Joshua! She threatened me-said she'd kill me if I didn't help her sell him to traffickers!"
Spike laughed bitterly. "You lying filth! You took the money from her and did the unthinkable. Now, you'll pay!"
In one swift motion, Spike snapped Mia's neck, tossing her lifeless body aside.
Before Lily could react, Spike's boot slammed into her throat, choking the life out of her.
Lily had spent twenty years plotting against Rylee, filled with hate. She thought that with the downfall of Delgado Enterprises, she would finally have her revenge. But in the end, everything had turned against her.
