Chapter 01: A Daughter's Vow: Unveiling Shadow

The shrill ring of the phone shattered the silence of the room, jolting me from my thoughts. My heart sank as I heard the tremble in my mother's voice, a stark contrast to the strength she had always exuded. She, who was feared by even the most powerful in the underworld, now sobbed uncontrollably. My friend Iris Martin, a trusted ally in our dealings, stood beside me as we finalized a deal for 500 new guns.

Her urgent plea to return home cut through the air like a knife. Hastening back to the mansion, dread coiled in my stomach. Upon my arrival, the grandeur of the estate was overshadowed by the sight that greeted me—a scene of horror etched in blood. My father, the formidable Boss of the Two Sword Mafia, lay lifeless, a crimson pool spreading beneath him. He, who had taught me everything I knew shooting, killing ,scheming, doing business, gave me a good eyes for weapons and he, who had shielded me from the darkness of our world, now lay cold and still.

My mother's anguished cries tore at my soul as she wept over his motionless form. His chest, once a symbol of strength and authority, now bore the stain of betrayal—a betrayal that demanded justice.

Yet now, Nathaniel stood accused of my father's murder, a crime that shattered the fragile peace between our families.

Every lead, every whispered rumor, brought me closer to the man responsible. Yet with each revelation, I realized the magnitude of the task ahead—the formidable adversary I would face, the treachery that lurked in every corner.

But I would not falter. With Iris by my side and my father's memory as my guide, I embarked on a journey of vengeance—a journey that would test my strength, my courage, and my very soul. For in my eyes burned the unyielding urge to bring Nathaniel Michaelson to justice, and nothing would stand in my . My promise to my mother would stand at the end no matter what.
