The Oak Chapter 1 Prologue

They said blood is thicker than water, but what if the water is deadly, vile, manipulative and consuming?

(City of Tusca)

The disco lights made her dizzy, or maybe, it was due to the amount of alcohol running in her blood stream. She staggered across the dance floor, unaware of the two sets of eyes that locked in on her wake.

Why did she even agree to attend such a ridiculous party? Avery Mendez is a straight A student. She comes from a prestigious family of neuro surgeons. She herself aims to be one, and had worked herself to the core in order to achieve her dream. Unfortunately, her constant studying murdered her social life.

So, she decided to agree for a night out, upon her room mate's request.

(Tusca General Hospital)

The speaker announced his name once more, Dr. Falco Mendez grunted and waltz towards the operating room. His shift has ended hours ago, but due to their hospital's lack of competent staff, he decided to extend his working hours-probono, to assist in any emergency concerning his field.

"Doctor, Thank God you're here!" screamed one of the nurses. Mendez acknowledged her greeting with a nod.

"What's the situation?" the doctor asked.

One of the nurses walked up to him and said "Rape victim, severe head trauma, and multiple lacerations to the muscles of her lower lumbar region. Her coccyx also has a stab wound."

"Alright, prep me up." Dr. Mendez murmured.

After a few minutes, the doctor, equipped with all the knowledge that gained him a huge and respected reputation throughout the city, entered the emergency room.

"Her head keeps bleeding doctor!" yelled a young man, wearing a doctor's robe-same as himself.

Dr Mendez can only shake his head. The young man lacks experience, and that is evident by the shaking of his hand along with the high pitched tone that glazed his words

"Calm yourself, before you drop that scalpel inside your patient's wound." Mendez murmured.

The veteran doctor walked up to the young one and motioned to take his place, but before he could, his heart hammered, his eyes almost fell out of their sockets, as his sight fell on the body of his daughter.

"Avery!" the doctor screamed, his heart shattering at the disheveled image of his precious girl

The heavy thud of the release stamp was the only goodbye I got from the warden after five years in federal prison. I stepped out into the blinding sun, expecting the same flash of paparazzi bulbs that had seen me dragged away in handcuffs, but there was only a single black limousine idling on the shoulder of the road. Inside sat my mother and sister, clutching champagne and looking at my frayed coat with pure disgust. They didn't offer a welcome home; instead, they tossed a thick legal document onto the table and told me I was dead to the city. "Gavin and I are getting engaged," my sister Mia sneered, flicking a credit card at me like I was a stray dog. "He doesn't need a convict ex-fiancée hanging around." Even after I saved their lives from an armed kidnapping attempt by ramming the attackers off the road, they rewarded me by leaving me stranded in the dirt. When I finally ran into Gavin, the man who had framed me, he pinned me against a wall and threatened to send me back to a cell if I ever dared to show my face at their wedding. They had stolen my biotech research, ruined my name, and let me rot for half a decade while they lived off my brilliance. They thought they had broken me, leaving me with nothing but an expired chapstick and a few old photos in a plastic bag. What they didn't know was that I had spent those five years becoming "Dr. X," a shadow consultant with five hundred million dollars in crypto and a secret that would bring the city to its knees. I wasn't just a victim anymore; I was a weapon, and I was pregnant with the heir they thought they had erased. I walked into the Melton estate and made an offer to the most powerful man in New York. "I'll save your grandfather's life," I told Horatio Melton, staring him down. "But the price is your last name. I'm taking back what's mine, and I'm starting with the man who thinks he's marrying my sister."
