Parker stood, pulling Tessa up with him. Naomi and Elena didn't need him to say more. The way he moved? Yeah, jokes were officially over. Shit was about to get real. Without a word, he walked, expecting them to follow.
The living room they were in? Bigger than so damn mansions, dripping in wealth like it was trying to flex on every billionaire alive. It wasn't just luxury—it was old money, ancient power, and modern brilliance fused into sothing that made the world's best interior designers look like amateurs.
Parker didn't stop. "From now on, your lives aren't what they used to be," he said, his voice even, commanding. "You have powers now. By the way, you can thank , or you can bla —but if you're thinking of the second option, let stop you right there." He shot them a look that shut that down imdiately.
Superpowers.
The Prince of Existence, the Villain Billionaire, walked forward, Tessa by his side, hand in hand. Behind them, Naomi and Elena followed, Ere prowling at their feet like so tiny, cosmic nace.
They reached a section of the living room where Parker pressed a button. The floor beneath them pulsed—glowing with shifting magical symbols. A second later, a futuristic, otherworldly elevator shimred into existence, looking like sothing out of a dream—both impossibly advanced and eerily mystical.
Naomi and Elena stared.
Parker? He gave them a flat look. "You getting in or what?"
They scrambled inside.
The doors slid shut. And then—
Ding.
The doors opened.
And suddenly, they weren't in the mansion anymore.
The space before them was impossible—an endless, white expanse stretching beyond their sight. It was like staring into infinity, the perfect blend of magic and tech so advanced it felt divine. Scattered across the floor were countless elevated ponds, their mirrored surfaces rippling with unseen energy.
Parker gestured lazily. "Those ponds? Step in, and they'll take you to a custom training environnt—one built specifically for your body, your powers, and your personality."
Naomi and Elena exchanged glances, still trying to process what the fuck they were looking at.
"This is your new life," Parker continued. "You wanna develop your powers? Then train. And don't tell you thought you could just sit on your powers and flex them all day?"
They both shook their heads quickly.
"Didn't think so," Parker said dryly. "Cuz comfort? Comfort is the enemy of progress. There's no real threat—yet. You don't have to push yourselves like you're on so deadline… but that won't last forever. That's why I want you ready for when the ti cos."
His eyes narrowed slightly, his presence pressing down on them. "And by ready? I an, when you can make an Origin Family descendant have to run for their fucking money."
Naomi swallowed. Elena exhaled sharply.
Yeah. They got the ssage.
"Mind you, these monsters didn't just get their powers today," Parker said, walking ahead like he wasn't casually dropping nightmare fuel. "It's their birthright. They've been training since the mont they figured out how to walk, so you better know what the fuck you're in for."
He glanced over his shoulder, eyes flicking to Elena. "Take Maya, for example. You, unfortunately, haven't t her yet."
Tessa flinched. "That bitch." Now that she rembers it, sothing had happened to her when Parker had left her in the class. It was subtle and she'd thought it had been an accident but turns out, it was Maya. Luckily it was embarrassing or sothing for the whole public to see.
Parker smirked but didn't comnt on her curse. "That little nace can erase your entire existence—like, not just kill you, but delete you from reality and the books of reincarnation—on her full power—if she decided to go all out."
Elena muttered sothing about homicidal rich girls under her breath, but Parker was already moving on. "Then there's Evelyn. Sweetest and most gentle woman you'll ever et. But don't let that fool you—she's just as dangerous as Maya. Maybe worse."
Naomi groaned. "Of course she is. Of course the nice one is secretly OP."
"But," Parker continued, his voice dropping slightly, "they're nothing compared to one particular person among the Origin Families' descendants. She's not in their league. She's way above them all."
They didn't have to guess.
"My big sister," Parker said, his tone almost… respectful. And maybe, just maybe, a little wary.
For the first ti, Naomi and Elena saw sothing in Parker's expression that unsettled them. He was actually mindful of her. Maybe even… scared?
Parker didn't just respect his older sister—he straight-up feared her—at least for now. And he wasn't the type to fear much. Compared to her, Maya, Evelyn, and all those other freakishly overpowered descendants of the Origin Families were like kids playing with firecrackers. His sister? She was the explosion. If she had even 20% of her full power awakened, she could snap her fingers and change the entire playing field. And the Origin Families?
Yeah, they had more power than gods, but they didn't go around flexing it. Why? That was a whole different rabbit hole he wasn't getting into today.
Tessa narrowed her eyes. "Wait, you have an older sister?"
"Oh, did I forget to ntion?" Parker said, as if he hadn't just dropped a nuke. "I'm the youngest and only boy of the three siblings. My second big sister is currently living with the Origin Families."
"You have two older sisters?" Naomi deadpanned. "That explains a lot."
"Yeah, I was bullied for sport," Parker said dryly, then shrugged. "But anyway."
Tessa tapped her fingers against her arm. "How strong is she? I assu she reincarnates like you, right? So she's not at her full power yet?"
Parker chuckled.
Tessa didn't like that chuckle.
"Currently?" He shook his head slightly, like the answer was so stupid that even he had trouble accepting it. "I don't know for sure. But she could probably kill you with just a stare."
Both Naomi and Elena busted out laughing.
Tessa didn't.
"Trust ," Parker said, his voice way too casual for the sheer terror he was about to drop. "If she wanted you dead, she wouldn't even have to move a finger. Hell, she wouldn't even have to think about it too hard. A single stare—boom, gone."
Naomi and Elena laughed. Tessa didn't.
Parker glanced at them, shook his head. "I ain't joking. If she really ant it, you'd be dead before you even realized she was looking at you."
Yeah, that wiped the grins off their faces.
The way he said it? It sent a shiver down their spines.
Elena swallowed. "O-oh."
Naomi shifted uncomfortably. "Yeah, okay, noted."
"B-Boss," Elena started hesitantly. "What about your eldest sister? How powerful is she?"
Tessa tensed.
Sothing told her—don't ask that question.
Parker exhaled slowly. "Do you know what fate is?"
Naomi and Elena froze.
Tessa had already figured it out. What would the eldest child of Existence be?
Naomi's voice ca out small. "Wait—your eldest sister has power over fate?"
Tessa looked at Naomi and sighed while Parker stared at her. Then—
He laughed.
And not just a regular laugh. The kind of laugh that says, Oh, you sweet, naive child.
"Power over fate?" Parker repeated, shaking his head. "If my sister heard that—which she didn't, thanks to this space we're in—she'd annihilate you for your impudence."
Indeed, if his sister had actually heard Naomi say sothing as ridiculous as "power over fate"? Oh, she would've vaporized her on the spot. No hesitation. Just poof.
Power over fate? The audacity.
The eldest of the three siblings wasn't just beyond that—she was beyond beyond.
Naomi stiffened. "O-okay, damn."
Parker smirked. "Power over fate—how disrespectful." Repeating the words, imagining how She would react if she heard this
Elena blinked. "Disrespectful? How the fuck is that disrespectful?"
"The eldest sibling of the three isn't just 'powerful,'" Parker said, his voice dropping. "She's sothing beyond."
They didn't even know how to respond to that.
Parker waved them off. "Anyway, don't ever talk about her. Outside this space? Or if I'm not around? Don't even ntion her."
Naomi frowned. "Why?"
"Because if you do, you'll die before you even know it."
Silence.
"Oh," Elena whispered. "That's… comforting."
"Oh, right," Parker added, as if it was so minor detail, "you won't even rember anything we said about Her once you step out of here, so… yeah, you're safe."
The three of them blinked.
"Wait, what?" Naomi frowned. "So, like… this whole conversation about her will just vanish from our brains?"
"Yup."
"...That's fucked up."
"Yup."
"Should we be concerned?"
"Probably."
Parker just smirked and left it at that.
"THAT'S NOT COMFORTING EITHER, BOSS."
He ignored them.
Naomi threw her hands up. "Fine! What about your second sister? What's her deal, I an we know she's powerful but what powers does she gave?"
And just like that, Parker grinned.
Oh, they were so not ready for the answer.
