Atlas was made to believe he was a poor man. The society always reminded him of his situation. However what keeps him going is the determination and also Jessica his girlfriend. His break through comes when it is revelaed his father owns all coorporation in Preston City. Against all odds Atlas believed he had finally made it after all his setbacks but what he doesn't know is that life is not always roses and he has to face through several challenges before getting his desired dream of being great.

Chapter 1 The Anniversary

"I guess I'll see you later bro..." Anthony waved at Atlas as he exited the building of the factory he worked in.

"Yeah, later man." Atlas waved back at his colleague and friend without looking at him. After the day's work he was too exhausted to move anywhere but straight ahead.

Atlas lets out a sigh of relief as soon as the outside breeze enveloped him, glad that he was finally away from all that toxic chemical in the factory.

The only good thing about work these days was when Atlas got to go back home to his wife and sleep. Usually he would be on his way to his second job where he worked as a waste carrier by now but it was his day off and as much as he had pleaded with his boss to let him take up extra shifts today, he had vehemently refused, saying that he was taking too much space here and that he wasn't the only one that needed money.

It would have been funny if it wasn't completely true. Atlas was in fact always there, picking up extra shifts every chance he got. It wasn't exactly because he loved his job so much, after all, his job was to pack and dump waste, it was because he needed the money even though the pay was piss poor. He'd even gotten himself a nickname, Shift sniffer, because of how eager he was to take up extra shifts.

He was doing all of this work for one reason and it was Jessica, his wife.

Atlas walked along the sidewalk, his hands in the pocket of his worn out jeans and his eyes trained straight ahead. He couldn't wait to get home and crash. He had not gotten much sleep throughout the week. Hell, he had not gotten much sleep in years and it had begun to take a toll on his body albeit slowly.

As he continued down the busy sidewalk of Preston, his thoughts focused on getting home and falling into the arms of his wife, his phone buzzed loudly in his pocket.

Without hesitation, Atlas plucked out the buzzing phone from his pocket to check who was calling only to find out that it was simply his alarm. He'd apparently set a reminder for something he couldn't remember.

Confused as to what he had set a reminder for, he typed out his pin, opening his phone.

Atlas stopped abruptly in his tracks as soon as he saw the words ANNIVERSARY! Written in bold letters onr his screen.

"Oh shit!" He cursed, his eyes widening in shock and distress still staring at his screen.

"Don't just stop in the middle of the road like that, you don't own it, you know." an annoyed voice snapped as the owner ambled past him.

"Move out of the way!" Another voice said, ambling past tge still shocked Atlas.

"Sorry." Atlas said absent-mindedly without so much as glancing up at the stranger who had almost bumped into him. He was more concerned about the crisis in his hands.

Shit! Shit! He cursed again as he stepped to the side of the walkway. He'd forgotten about his wedding anniversary!

He ran his hands through his brown moppy hair, as he began to race frantically.

Jessica, his wife, was going to kill him.

No wonder she hasn't texted all day. She had expected him to do the texting and the way she'd spoken to him on his way to work had been off and had sounded rad bitter. He hadn't wished her a happy anniversary.

A feeling of panic came over him and without thinking he began to type out an apology to his wife, hoping to mend the situation before it got out of hand.

Abruptly, he stopped typing as an idea popped up in his head.

He could apologize now and make his wife think he'd actually forgotten about their anniversary and never hear the end of it or surprise her with flowers and chocolate and maybe wine.

It would definitely beat apologizing and admitting he completely forgot about their precious day.

But even as the idea came, the realization that he didn't even have enough money to get these things for her caused his shoulders to slump like a fish that had just been taken out of water.

He could only afford to get her a single rose or at best the cheapest bouquet there was which would still look piss poor.

Atlas ran his hands through hair again, almost pulling the strands out as an overwhelming need to yell out in frustration hit him. How could he have forgotten about a precious day like today and how come his alarm clock had not buzzed earlier?!

He hated that he couldn't afford basic things such as chocolate for his wife.

No! He couldn't go home empty handed, not after forgetting to text her all day. He knew she would completely understand but he was beginning to tire of putting her in a position to always understand. He hated that for her.

Atlas and Jessica have been together since highschool. She was the popular homecoming queen that every guy wanted to be with and he was the nerdy, poor, quiet kid that was constantly bullied for being poor.

How they had gotten together when they were worlds apart still surprised him till this day.

It had been an unsual meeting but there was no denying that day had been the best day of his life.

It had been on a rainy day when they had first interacted. He had just been beaten up by the quarterback of the football team because he had forgotten to do his assignment.

In his defense, he had fallen asleep after a long shift at the factory and had forgotten to finish his work.

He had been walking under the rain with a bloody nose and shirt back home when he noticed Jessica parked just outside his house with the hood of a car open and a disgruntled look on her face.

I died on a Tuesday. It wasn't a quick death. It was slow, cold, and meticulously planned by the man who called himself my father. I was twenty years old. He needed my kidney to save my sister. The spare part for the golden child. I remember the blinding lights of the operating theater, the sterile smell of betrayal, and the phantom pain of a surgeon's scalpel carving into my flesh while my screams echoed unheard. I remember looking through the observation glass and seeing him-my father, Giovanni Vitiello, the Don of the Chicago Outfit-watching me die with the same detached expression he used when signing a death warrant. He chose her. He always chose her. And then, I woke up. Not in heaven. Not in hell. But in my own bed, a year before my scheduled execution. My body was whole, unscarred. The timeline had reset, a glitch in the cruel matrix of my existence, giving me a second chance I never asked for. This time, when my father handed me a one-way ticket to London-an exile disguised as a severance package-I didn't cry. I didn't beg. My heart, once a bleeding wound, was now a block of ice. He didn't know he was talking to a ghost. He didn't know I had already lived through his ultimate betrayal. He also didn't know that six months ago, during the city's brutal territory wars, I was the one who saved his most valuable asset. In a secret safe house, I stitched up the wounds of a blinded soldier, a man whose life hung by a thread. He never saw my face. He only knew my voice, the scent of vanilla, and the steady touch of my hands. He called me Sette. Seven. For the seven stitches I put in his shoulder. That man was Dante Moretti. The Ruthless Capo. The man my sister, Isabella, is now set to marry. She stole my story. She claimed my actions, my voice, my scent. And Dante, the man who could spot a lie from a mile away, believed the beautiful deception because he wanted it to be true. He wanted the golden girl to be his savior, not the invisible sister who was only ever good for her spare parts. So I took the ticket. In my past life, I fought them, and they silenced me on an operating table. This time, I will let them have their perfect, gilded lie. I will go to London. I will disappear. I will let Seraphina Vitiello die on that plane. But I will not be a victim. This time, I will not be the lamb led to slaughter. This time, from the shadows of my exile, I will be the one holding the match. And I will wait, with the patience of the dead, to watch their entire world burn. Because a ghost has nothing to lose, and a queen of ashes has an empire to gain.
