Chapter 6

Olivia

I tap my fingers nervously on the bar table. This feels like the wrong place to have such an important discussion but I couldn't think of anywhere else. He's still a stranger and I can't have him in my house just yet. What was I thinking asking him to marry me?

I'm damn sure I wasn't thinking at all.

I cringe as I replay the scene in my head. Those words sounded desperate. I needed to prove Asher wrong and he was my only option. Meeting the stranger again at Asher's office was the only good thing that came out of that drama. I didn't expect his call after I handed him a piece of paper I had written my number. The look on Asher's face was everything I wanted. Jealousy- anger. I enjoyed every bit of it as I watched him burn with rage. But I want more. Revenge for cheating on me. And this stranger looks like the perfect plan. He's hot and gives great sex. I'll finally give my dad his wish while getting my revenge on Asher.

I wipe my sweaty palms on my jeans as I see him approach my table. He looks different from earlier today in a casual sweatshirt and pants.

"Hi," I say as he settles on the stool in front of me.

"Hi."

His eyes watch me cautiously. He must think I'm crazy. Maybe I am.

"Well, thank you for coming."

"How could I ignore the lady that begged me to marry her?"

A smirk plays on his lips.

I let out a scoff.

"I didn't beg you. I only asked you to," I say with disgust. Maybe this was a big mistake.

"Didn't look like it," he retorted. He lets out a laugh. It's infuriating.

"I should have known this was a stupid mistake." I try to stand to my feet but he stops me. His fingers holding my arm.

"Wait."

"Why? This is some kind of joke to you."

I feel stupid and pissed. But mostly pissed.

"I'm sorry, okay? Please stay."

His eyes soften just like his grip on my arm.

"I don't have time for games," I say as I lower myself back on the stool.

"I'm not trying to play any," he replies.

I dragged my gaze away from his. The bar was getting fuller now. I need to be done with this quick before it gets too noisy to have a conversation in.

"So what is it with you and you-know-who?" he broke the momentary silence.

"None of your business."

I return my gaze to him with my face firm.

"Then why am I here?"

"I need your-"

I stop mid-sentence and swallow a hard gulp. Already hate how desperate it sounds.

"I need your help."

"To marry you?" the stranger asks.

"To get revenge on that piece of shit," I snap. Marriage sounds so serious.

"Why should I? You've already put me in a bad position with the business deal we had going on before you walked in."

He slides my glass of coke to himself and takes a sip. I have no idea how he made that look hot. But it did. And made my core throb.

"You can leave if you don't want to."

I keep my eyes locked on his. He stares back in silence like it's a staring contest. It makes me nervous for a second.

Then he sighs out loud.

"What do I get in return if I agree to this?"

He leans forward and folds his arm on the table. I do the same.

"What do you want?"

I know how this works. It's a business my father has always wanted me to be involved in. Nothing ever comes free.

"Everything. Everything you know about him."

For ten years, I disguised myself as my dead twin brother, fighting bloody mob wars to build the Falcone family's bootlegging empire. When the war ended, I thought I could finally take off the men's suits and be Anya again. Instead, my parents stole my victories to secure my father's power, demanding I disappear forever. When I tried to expose the truth, my family dragged me into a soundproof basement. My younger brother forced a metal funnel past my teeth and poured corrosive chemicals down my throat, dissolving my vocal cords into a blistered ruin. They chained me to a freezing pier, whipped me bloody, and let the men I used to lead spit on me as a jealous traitor. Then, under the guise of a family reconciliation dinner, my mother drugged my wine. While I lay paralyzed but fully conscious on my bed, my brother took heavy iron pliers and crushed all ten of my fingers, bone by bone. They wanted to ensure I could never hold a gun or write the truth again. I had slaughtered for them, bled for them, and craved only their love. In return, they pulverized my body and painted me as a hysterical madwoman just to keep the crown I had won for them. The foolish girl who wanted a family died in that agonizing pain, leaving behind only a ghost. Dragging my mangled, bandaged body into the rival Romano family's charity gala, I collapsed at the feet of their ruthless matriarch. "I invoke the sacred code," I rasped through my chemically burned throat. "I demand a Vendetta."

Legend of Icaros Novel Cover
9.5
He was born from the void between stars - a being of immense power, forged from cosmic origins. For thousands of years, he walked among humanity, protecting them and keeping his true strength hidden. After losing the only family he had, grief led him to seek his own end... only to wake up in a world entirely unlike his own. Here, cultivation is the main path to power. Those who master spirit qi gain superhuman strength, speed, and abilities that place them far above ordinary people. Four great sects rule the land, competing for resources, secrets, and dominance over each other. Icaros joined the Li Sect, where he found companions he came to trust and care for: the capable and easygoing Li Han, the sharp and composed Su Yan, and the spirited Nelly. For a time, he felt he had found a place to belong, even as he kept his true nature hidden and wondered whether he could ever learn to cultivate like those around him. Everything changed when their voyage was suddenly attacked. A powerful figure floating in the sky cut their ship apart with sharp, devastating energy strikes, leaving only destruction in his wake. Believing his friends had been lost in the disaster, Icaros chose to stop holding back any longer. > "I am done hiding!" He unleashed his full power: golden light blazed from his eyes, he flew at incredible speed, and he broke through every barrier and enemy in his way. On the shores ahead, he tore through hordes of powerful jade monsters, destroying them completely before flying deep into the interior of the island. Meanwhile, survivors washed up scattered and alone. One young cultivator found himself on the shores of Jade Island - a place most cultivators avoid, as it holds no treasures or useful materials, only danger and endless deposits of ordinary jade. Yet despite the risks, ordinary people have built settlements here, finding safety from the conflicts and power struggles of the outside world. This island works by different rules. Spirit qi is scarce and unstable, making cultivation far less effective than elsewhere. Instead, the people here rely on advanced technology - weapons and explosives that can injure or even defeat those with great physical strength. Here, skill and preparation can be just as powerful as raw strength, and even the strongest cultivators must move with caution. Now, Icaros has vanished deep into the island. His companions are lost somewhere across this dangerous land. And the mysterious swordsman who destroyed their ship has already arrived here, searching for an ancient map said to lead to the legacy of a being from another world. Will they find each other again? And can anyone survive in a place where the usual rules of power no longer hold true? ✅ Chapters 1–19: FREE 🔒 Chapters 20 onwards: PAID (Continue the journey of power, friendship, and discovery!)
