Chapter 1 - Return of the Predator

It was a normal sunny day surrounded by the clouds in City A, Capital of Country K, as airplanes and jets were making a landing. Lots of businessmen and tourists were rushing out from various exits provided by the airport.

Holding a leather bag filled with some clothing and electronic items in his hand, out came from a VIP, exit a young man with sharp facial features with black shades over the eyes. The young man around the age of 26 years had shiny black hair, thin pinkish red lips and a chiseled jawline.

'Ah! Finally after 4 years I am back in City A! I guess I'll have to catch up with many people and show my face at some places' said the young man to himself and a dangerous glint passed through his eyes which were hidden under the shades. Many people, especially the females where gawking at him like he was some sort of a dish on the table. But the mysterious young man didn't care about anything around him as he takes out a cell phone from his pocket and dials a number.

From the other side of the phone came a groggy male voice, "Hey Mark! Haven't heard from you in ages. Where have you been buddy? Are you back in the Country now?".

Getting slightly irritated from incessant questioning, Mark exasperated a sigh and said with a fake smile, "Well hello there lover boy Jake! Yes, I am back in the City, landed just now. So, you quickly move your ass from the bed, where I am sure some sexy chick must be lying naked next to you, and come pick me up at the cafe in front of the airport. Its already 11 o'clock in the morning and you are still not up. Tsk' Tsk', thats why uncle doesn't give you the reigns of the family yet."

"Jeez! Mark, why do you still call me that me when you haven't even seen me here? Wait, don't tell me you have been keeping tabs on me!" said Jake, eyeing the beauty lying next to him sound asleep.

The young man named Jake is the childhood friend of Mark, whose full name is Jake Graham, the sole heir to the Graham Security Agency, which have been on the top of its market for generations, providing VIP and VVIP security services to many influential people such as politicians, businessmen, actors, etc. including Mark's family.

And Mark, the mysterious young man from the airport, whose full name is Mark Sebastian, is the eldest young master of Sebastian family, running Sebastian & Co., a large business empire ruling the business world for decades with different types of businesses. His family is respected and feared in the whole country due to their influence and resources they hold throughout the world. They say never offend a person from the Sebastian family unless you want to erase your existence from the world, permanently.

Mark's fake smile suddenly got genuine and he even chuckled when he heard his friend. "Why'd I even need to keep tabs on you? This just shows how clearly I know you. Now, stop lazing around and come get me. I ll treat you for brunch. Come on, hurry up. You have 30 minutes or else I will tell uncle George about his favourite antic piece that you broke when we were kids and told him that it was your dog who broke it."

Jake's eyes widened the moment he heard this. "Are you even my friend? You are definitely an imposter! Mark, how can you blackmail me like that? Aren't we brothers?"

Mark rolled his eyes dramatically and said, "You just wasted another minute. Now you have exactly 29 minutes and 5 seconds, chop-chop."

Before Jake could say anything, the call was cut "Tch! Sadistic Mark, as always being bossy and bullying me like he used to do", Jake muttered under his breath but nevertheless started dressing himself up. When he looked around he noticed that a pair of eyes where intensely gazing at him with seduction laced in them. As much as he wanted to take his new "girlfriend" under him and make her scream his name like what he did throughout the night till dawn, he knew that his world will be doomed if he kept that handsome man waiting for him.

Alas! Jake sighed and said, "Miya, sweetheart please don't look at me like that or I won't be able to control myself and I'll end up dead the next day." After convincing her quickly that he will make it up to her next time, Jake quickly freshened up and ran out of his private villa to his garage and hopped in to his customized matte grey Lamborghini Urus and sped out without wasting any time.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Mark couldn't help but feel nostalgic after ordering Jake around and feeling proud of himself. He made his way to the cafe that was 5 minutes walk from the airport and made himself comfortable in a corner table with perfect ambience, ordering an espresso for himself with some light cookies to go with it.

He started going through trending topics on his tablet where something interesting caught his eyes. A famous business blog saying - 'SM Investment Group in talks with joining hands with Lotus Investment Holdings, a public investment company which has been a direct competitor of the SM Investment Group'.

Mark's face darkened when he read the whole blog and a dangerous smirk appeared on his face as he thought to himself, 'Interesting. I leave the country for few years and people start messing around like its their birthright to do so. Seems like I'll have to do some clean up as early as possible, or else these dogs with large appetites will gobble everything up'. Mark kept the tablet down and started strategising about how to take various business empires down with a glow in his eyes.

Only the time is going to tell what storm will be raised after the return of the predator of business world, known as Mark Sebastian
