“You woman,” one of the thugs sneered as he stepped forward, his eyes crawling over her.

“Pretty face, but I didn’t know you had claws. Makes me wonder how wild you’d be in bed-” ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ FindN0vel.net

He didn’t get to finish. Josephine’s kick slammed into his groin, folding him in half with a strangled cry.

“Don’t you dare say filth like that in front of children,” she snapped.

“You bitch!” another thug barked, lunging to grab her arm.

But Josephine wasn’t the same girl she used to be.

She had spent countless nights forging her body in silence, mastering the flow of inner energy Alex had passed down to her.

The world seemed to slow down in her eyes. She saw every twitch, every step before it came.

Her palm cracked across the man’s face with a thunderclap.

He crumpled to the ground, unconscious before he even hit the pavement.

“Get her!” their leader roared.

Josephine didn’t hesitate.

She had always loved fighting back against bullies, but this—this was different.

Power surged inside her like an endless storm.

Josephine couldn’t help but smile.

‘I am the tempest, I am the flame.’

Every strike exploded with force. Her fists, her kicks, even her elbows sent grown

men flying as if they’d been hit by speeding trucks.

The children nearby watched wide-eyed, then burst into cheers.

“Sister Josephine, you’re amazing!”

“Beat those bad men! You’re our hero!”

“You’re my idol, Sister Jo!”

She fought through twenty men without slowing, her movements sharp, brutal, unstoppable.

In minutes, the ground was littered with groaning bodies.

Security finally arrived with the park staff.

One officer stepped forward. “Miss, we’ll take it from here.”

“They’re all yours,” Josephine said, brushing hair from her face with a faint smile.

But before the thugs could be hauled away, one man staggered up, hate burning in his eyes. “Go to hell!” he roared, pulling a pistol from his waistband.

The gunshot cracked through the air. Children screamed. Josephine froze-too slow this time.

But Alex was faster. He appeared in front of her, his hand snapping up.

The bullet stopped against his palm, crushed between his fingers. In the same motion, he flicked it back like a pebble.

It smashed into the thug’s hand, sending the gun clattering to the ground as he howled in pain.

“How dare you touch us!” the thug spat, clutching his mangled hand.

“Do you even know who we are? We’re with the Chicago Outfit! My name’s Max Capone. My eldest brother is Al Capone-the legend of Chicago!”

The crowd gasped.

“What? Al Capone? The Chicago Outfit?”

Everyone froze. The guards, the staff, even the security team turned pale at the

name.

Everyone knew it. The Chicago Outfit. A mafia empire that hid behind “security firms” while running every illegal racket under the sun.

They were infamous for their brutality, their reach, and their absolute disregard for law or life.

Al Capone-the name alone was enough to paralyze most men.

He had built the Outfit into a ruthless machine, a criminal dynasty spreading far beyond Chicago, swallowing city after city.

Even Vancouver had fallen under their shadow.

One of the guards stepped forward, “Sir, they’ve rented the entire park. You’re not allowed to be here.”

Max sneered through the blood dripping from his hand.

“So what if they rented out this park for their little party? They still need permission from the Chicago Outfit. We own this area! No celebration happens without us approving it!”

The guards shifted uneasily, knowing full well what that meant. Nobody crossed the Outfit without paying a price.

Alex and Josephine stood in silence, their expressions unreadable.

Max smirked, his arrogance undimmed. “What’s wrong? Scared now? You know who I am. You know what comes next, don’t you?”

“Of course,” Alex said flatly.

Then his boot shot forward, cracking across Max’s face. The thug flew backward, his entire body rolling across the ground.

Blood gushed from Max’s nose as he roared in outrage. “Do you have any idea what you’re doing? You’re challenging the Chicago Outfit right now!”

Alex stepped toward him, his voice sharp.

“So because you wear that name, you think you can bully us and we’re not allowed to fight back? Who gave you that authority? The King of the world?” His open palm struck again, snapping Max’s head sideways. s

Max trembled with fury, his pride burning hotter than the pain.

Never in his life had he been treated like this.

Normally, the moment he revealed who he was, men dropped to their knees, begging for mercy. But this man-this Alex-dared to humiliate him.

“You bastard!” Max screamed, spitting blood.

“Nobody disrespects the Chicago Outfit without paying the price! You’ve slapped me again and again. I swear I’ll make you pay with your legs. You’ll crawl for the rest of your life!”

Alex closed the distance, calm and unshaken. “So you’re saying anyone who defies the Chicago Outfit must pay the price?”

Max hesitated. Fear flickered in his eyes, but he forced himself to sneer.

“That’s right,” Max snarled. “Kneel now. Beg for your life before my people arrive, and maybe I’ll let you live.”

Alex laughed, his eyes cold. “You think you’re untouchable? Remember this saying-man is not what he thinks he is, he is what he hides.”

His boot crashed into Max’s face again, sending him sprawling.

“You bastard!” Max spat blood, clutching his jaw. “My people are coming for you!

When they get here, you’ll be shaking in your own piss!”

“So your people are coming here? Good,” Alex said coldly, his hand clamping

down on Max’s shoulder like an iron vice.

“Then we’ll finish this outside the park. No need to frighten the children.”

“Alex…” Josephine’s voice trembled as she stepped forward.

Fear edged her tone. She knew the name-everyone did.

The Chicago Outfit wasn’t just another gang. Their reputation was carved in

blood, feared across entire states.

“Don’t worry,” Alex said with an easy smile.

“I’m only going to have a little chat

with him and his people. A gentleman’s conversation, with attitude, morals, and honor Like civilized people do. Now enjoy

Giselle’s birthday-make it

unforgettable.” s

‘We are always civilized against those weaker than us.’

He motioned for security to drag Max and the other thugs out of the park.

The children didn’t need to see what was coming.

Max let out a harsh laugh, blood staining his teeth. “So that’s it? You’re going to kneel outside, away from your pretty girlfriend’s eyes? I won’t allow it. You kneel here, now!”

Alex’s smile didn’t falter.

He grabbed Max’s hand and, with barely any effort, bent his pinky backward until

it snapped.

The bone tore loose. Max screamed, the sound raw and animal, echoing across

the park.

“Quiet,” Alex said coldly, his voice a knife. “We’re civilized men. We don’t use violence. That would be… immoral.”

Still howling, Max was dragged out of the park gates.noveldrama

Once outside, Alex forced every thug to kneel in the street.

“Now,” he said, “call your people from the Chicago Outfit. For every ten minutes they’re late, one of your finger bones will be broken. Make the call. Now.” Sweat poured down Max’s face. His voice trembled, but his pride pushed through.

“You’ll regret this. Once I call them, hundreds will come. Thousands if I want. You’ll be crushed!”

“Wonderful,” Alex said with a low laugh. “I’m counting on it. Now, pick up the phone. You’ve got ten minutes, or bones start breaking.”

Max roared at his men.

“Call them! Call everyone! Let this bastard see what it means to defy the Chicago Outfit! We may just be the Vancouver branch, but no one touches us without paying in blood. Make the damn call!”

Alex nodded approvingly. “Good. Call them all. The more that come, the better. It’ll

save your fingers.”

He stepped aside, pulling out his own phone, his voice calm and commanding when the line connected.

“Carlos, it’s time to clean up the underworld. Come to Vancouver City Park. I’ve

got twenty bait fish here waiting. You handle the net.”

“Yes, sir,” Carlos replied. His voice carried absolute loyalty. “We’ll be there in ten minutes.”

Alex let out a long, heavy sigh.

He had seen it too many times-streets ruled by men like this, thugs and gangsters who thrived on extortion, breaking shopkeepers for protection money, dragging kids into crime, and silencing anyone who dared resist. s

They spread terror like a disease, crushing the weak day by day.

And the weak, abandoned by law and ignored by those in power, had no choice

but to hide, bow their heads, and bleed quietly under the weight of fear.

“Justice without force is powerless,” he murmured. “But force without justice is

tyranny.”

“So I will become both the force and the justice.”

Lifting his head, he whispered a quiet prayer.

“May the True Source grant me strength in this.”
