I had just made it home when I watched Arilynn pull into the garage and park before she stepped out of the car with a bright smile across her face.

"Hello mi amor" I greet as she crossed the concrete garage to me before wrapping her arms around me.

"How was your day Nathan" she beams.

"It was good, I got Nexus signed over to Winters Group, along with completed the next week's worth of work and submitted last week's. Our teachers are probably annoyed that I keep doing their courses like this, but it works, and they can always expect the work given to them by the next set of assignments" I say and she just shakes her head.

"I think that it's good that you are so dedicated to both, just don't work yourself too hard, I don't want you getting a heart attack on me" Arilynn says as we walked into the elevator for our apartment.

"I'm not going to get a heart attack, I'm just working to make something of myself, and to protect people. I started thinking about what Derek said on the night where Scarlett stayed with us, and my response to it. The Wolf Of New York sounds quite fitting, the wolf represents strength, family, protection, courage, loyalty, and family. I want to protect the people I care about I have for years without thanks, I've stood in the way of everything that has faced them. Even the war that is going on I will do everything to protect my friends and family, and especially you" I say being met by Arilynn's deep brown eyes.

"Everything for family, and others. Selflessness is a good quality Nathan, and knowing you, you have a larger plan for that title, and it's meaning" she says and I nod slowly before the doors open and we walked out into the penthouse.

"I do" I admit entering the living room and removing my jacket while moving towards the window.

"What is it?" my girlfriend asks as I stop by the window with my feet spread while I rolled up my sleeve, and rid myself of the tie, and cufflinks I wore.

"I want to go back to my family's roots. To the beginning of the twentieth century when we made weapons to protect nations in times of war. I want to do something more then just help the worlds poor, and less fortunate along with advance society to make me wealthy. There are wars being fought each day, and I have zero problem with helping to arm, design, and construct ways to protect people".

"Didn't someone die the last time that happened" Arilynn says.

"Eighty million people died the last time that happened" I muse before folding my arms and turning around to face her.

"So after a hundred and thirty years you're reopening the military branch of Winters Group".

I hummed, before letting out a sigh, as I thought for the best response.

"Winters Group has the right kind of infrastructure that it's possible to do it, advanced weaponry for NATO that's what I plan to do. I want to protect people, and the fact that threats can pop up to strike at powerful families says a lot, what about the ten thousand other conflicts in the world with innocent people trapped between them. No one is protecting them, and I want to do that" I explain.

"Then I'll back you on that decision. If you want to protect others, and do it through military spending, I will stand by your side for that" Arilynn replies with a delicate smile. One that made me know I'd do anything to protect her no matter what it cost me. I'd make people disappear to ensure that no one every laid a hand on her.

"What will you call it, the company that will do that?" she poses as she walked closer to me.

"Voulge Defense Industries" I say putting my arms around Arilynn's thin waist. "I have thought about this before, Winters Group needed to focus on other things to expand in a way that benefits everyone and not just my family, and our executives".
