If there has ever been a greater fool who ever tread this earth in Akil Omar's opinion, it's none other than Zaid Adeeb Tahir. His once partner turned foe was known to rush decision and never looked back. His ego never allowed him to run a background check that there are people who can hold their breath underwater for minutes and resurfaced.

Story of his life

Walking in a private plane after what felt an eternity was a blessing but an unexpected curse at the same time. The floor was heated, an unending selection of entertainment on the screens, first class food and drinks were always at his service with genuine smiles on the faces of the air hostesses despite he is a prisoner of The Legends.

After gaining permission, he walked till the south part and knocked on the glossy hard door that has definitely been made by one of the world's leading manufacturer.

"You may come in."

He smiled, gently touched the small screen on the left side which opened the door. The chamber was one he had never seen before with all its golden and silvery touch furniture with a king sized bed, wardrobe, private bathroom, mini fridge and in the corner, seated on the recliner with an IPad in hands was Akira Malik or Akira Omar, she should have been.

For a girl who would be soon nineteen, she looked both smart in her black turtleneck and slim jeans, rimmed spectacles and hair let down on both sides. She hasn't said a single word directly to him yet.

"Seize him."

He had heard a female voice when he was walking towards his car in the parking lot. He looked around, secret agents of The Legends caught him, threw him in a car then this mega private plane and one of them named Han Issam narrated the tale behind his kidnapping. Out of the rest of this dangerous mercenary group, Han was the only one who listened to him with patience and talked his freedom because Akira's plan was to toss him out in the air when they would be above the clouds.

"She has been thinking of painful methods to kill you for quite a few months, Akil," Han had said.

Her eyes were still glued to the IPad even when he sat on the recliner chair opposite of her. He observed her but there was no response on her behalf except her fingers trembled slightly when she would swipe on the touch screen. Akil knew he can't begin a normal conversation with her so he took a piece of information he got from Han and began.

"Why did you drop out of university?" He asked and for the first time, she lifted her head and stared right at him. Despite the power dominating around her, she still looked like she could break down at any moment.

"None of your business"

"If you claim that I'm your father, a fact that I am even not denying then I have every right to know about your life," he stated, never imagined that someone in his family would be alive and he would be talking to her.
