Location: Global Conference — Private Island, Black Sea
The skies above were calm.
The waves below were still.
But on the island itself?
Tension thicker than blood.
The most powerful vampires and werewolves who still remained—the old dynasties, the purist lineages—sat across from Damon Black.
He arrived last.
No guards. No fanfare.
Just presence—and the full weight of his empire behind him.
Scene: The Offer
Damon (calmly): "You have two choices."
"Join me—and watch the world evolve beyond your ancient shadows."
"Or refuse—and become extinct like the gods you worship."
The room buzzed with suppressed growls and ancient disdain.
A vampire lord stood.
"You're just a man."
Damon's eyes glowed faintly.
"I stopped being just a man the day I was bitten… by both of your kinds."
Silence.
"Now I'm the apex. You will not surpass me. But you may stand beside me—if you swear loyalty."
Scene: The Pact Begins
To everyone's shock—Lucian of the Nightborne and Nyra of the Silver-Claw stepped forward.
"We've seen what he's building."
"He's not just conquering. He's uplifting."
They knelt.
One by one, others followed.
Not all.
But enough to shift history.

Scene: The Dawn of a New Age
With the pact sealed, Phantom Enterprises expanded its reach across the globe:
Hospitals began using enhanced healing biotech—cutting treatment times in half.
Schools launched AI-powered learning systems tailored to every student's potential.
Cities converted to Damon's new clean energy grid—powered by fusion-tech secretly built with vampire science and werewolf adaptability.
Job creation skyrocketed. Poverty dropped. Disease rates plummeted.
And still, Damon Black's family remained on top—watching, guiding, protecting.
From the shadows and the spotlight.
Final Scene: Broadcast to the World
Damon appeared publicly—for the first time as the true head of Phantom Enterprises.
In a global address broadcast across nations, he said:
"This isn't just about wealth or survival."
"This is about a future where no one is stepped on—because I already crushed those who did."
"Welcome to the new era."
"Mine."
