The update is done!!! Judah is back... with Brodie 👀 I know everything gang related is going a bit slow but... it's still there in the background and I'm not done with it yet, there's still more things to come 🤭 Anyways I hope you liked this part, can't wait to see what y'all think 💙 #TheSims4

“Welcome to La Cosa Simstra,” he said. Brodie’s mouth curved into a crazed grin. Finally. His revenge was beginning to take shape. Judah kept smiling too. Because he already knew— Brodie would be useful. And then he would be disposable. #ValGen3

Maybe it was worth keeping him… at least until he stopped being convenient. Judah stood from his chair. Brodie scrambled up as well, chest puffed with false courage. Judah extended a hand. Brodie grabbed it quickly. A smile spread across Judah’s face—sharp, cold, victorious. #ValGen3

The type who would shoot without thinking, who would talk too much, who would ruin a plan with one impulsive choice. He should be killed. But— He brought information Judah had wanted for years. Information that could break X open like a cracked bone. #ValGen3

Brodie leaned forward suddenly, eyes gleaming with something ugly. “Let me join you. And let me do something about V. She’s the reason I was fired.” Judah held perfectly still. This man was unstable. Emotional. Filthy. Reeking of desperation and alcohol. #ValGen3

Brodie shrugged in irritation. “There’s nothing to say. Her name is V and they’re married. He doesn’t allow us to know more.” V. Married. The thought spun in Judah’s mind like a shard of dark glass. So the great, untouchable X had a weakness after all. “Interesting…” Judah murmured. #ValGen3

Judah leaned forward, all boredom evaporating. “Repeat that.” Brodie swallowed. “He has a wife.” Judah sat back slowly in his chair, studying him now with renewed interest. “Tell me everything.” #ValGen3

“¿Cómo?” No. No, that didn’t make sense. X was a ghost—private to a level that bordered on paranoia. Judah had spent years trying to get even one personal detail about him, and now this sloppy, trembling man was claiming something no one else had managed to uncover? #ValGen3

He reached for his phone, ready to call his men and have this fool thrown out—or shot outside the city limits if he kept talking— “He has a 𝙬𝙞𝙛𝙚.” Judah froze. His hand hovered over his phone. His eyes flicked back to Brodie. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

“I’m not stupid, niñito,” he drawled. “You come here to spy on me for X?” Brodie shook his head quickly. “He fired me.” Judah rolled his eyes. Of course. This was a waste of time. A angry reject looking for revenge. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

Judah rested his chin against his knuckles, unimpressed. “What do you want?” he asked, bored already. Brodie stiffened, then frowned. “I want to work for you.” Judah’s lips curled into a slow, mocking smirk. A sinister one. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

A former Simkuza foot soldier, if Judah remembered correctly. Except now he looked nothing like the clean-cut enforcer he used to be. His shirt was wrinkled, his eyes bloodshot, the stench of sweat and cheap liquor drifting across the desk every time he shifted. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

Judah had dealt with every type of man imaginable—killers, cowards, traitors, and geniuses—but the one sitting across from him right now looked like something scraped off the street. Brodie. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

X froze for a second—not because he was surprised, but because of what the words did to him. “Thank you, bud,” he murmured, relief flooding his entire body. Kai stayed leaned into him, letting the moment linger, safe in the silence of his father’s presence. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

X nodded. He knew. God, he knew. Kai wanted nothing to do with the world X came from, and X didn’t blame him. That world had stolen too much. Kai shifted closer. Then, gently, he leaned his head against X’s shoulder. “But… I’ll do it,” he whispered. “For you.” #ValGen3 #TheSims4

X’s lips curved—just a small smile, but genuine. Hearing that meant more than Kai knew. “It’s why I’m doing it,” Kai said, looking down again. His voice was small, honest. “Uncle Rome makes it feel… safe. But everything else about Simkuza…” He swallowed. “I don’t like it.” #ValGen3 #TheSims4

That alone made his stomach twist. Then, slowly, he turned back toward X. “I… didn’t not like the last lesson,” he admitted, cheeks warming slightly. “Learning with Uncle Rome was kinda… fun.” #ValGen3 #TheSims4

He looked at Kai carefully. “And another with Aunt Gia. She’ll teach you self-defense.” Kai nodded, staring down at his hands. He could hear something unfamiliar in his father’s voice—fear. Real fear. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

X hated himself for even putting the idea in the air—but he had to. He had no choice. “And listen…” X continued, voice gentler now, “it would make me feel better if you went at least once or twice a week. One day with Uncle Rome…” #ValGen3 #TheSims4

“I need you and Sora to be safe,” he said finally. “I need you to know all these things just in case… something happens to me or your mom.” Kai looked away sharply, jaw tightening. That possibility was something he never let himself think about. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

“I know you didn’t like it last time,” he began, voice low, “but… I need you and Sora to take up your lessons again.” Kai’s shoulders dropped. The reaction was instant, instinctive—his whole body tightening in that quiet way he always did when something scared him. “Why?” he asked softly. #ValGen3

“Hey, champ.” Kai immediately caught the tone. His smile faded, posture sinking slightly as he waited. X rubbed his hands together slowly, grounding himself. Then he turned toward his son. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

Kai was sitting cross-legged on his bed, hoodie sleeves bunched around his hands. He looked up the second his dad sat down next to him. “Hey, Dad.” X felt that smile hit him right in the heart. This kid. His boy. Sensitive, thoughtful, nothing like X had been at his age. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

That feeling in his gut wouldn’t go away. Judah was planning something. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

X stood alone once again, staring at the map. Victor was right. He hated it—he hated the idea of dragging his kids into this world—but he didn’t have a choice. Not anymore. Not with the silence pressing in around him like a warning. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

This time X actually smirked—a tired, reluctant, but genuine smirk. Victor saw it, satisfied, and started to leave the room. “I’ll give you time to think about it,” he said before exiting the room, shutting the door behind him. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

“Listen, boss… even if nothing ever happens, they need to know these things. And be honest with Kai. He deserves that.” A shrug. “And Sora? Please. That girl’s wild. She’ll be on board before you even finish your sentence.” #ValGen3 #TheSims4

“She can teach them how to break a bone or two,” Victor added dryly. X didn’t smile, but the corner of his mouth twitched upward, the closest thing to amusement he ever showed. Victor grinned at the reaction and continued, more serious now. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

“Yeah, but that was when he was a kid,” he pushed gently. “Now he’s in high school. He might turn around.” X didn’t look convinced, but Victor didn’t back off. So he added, “If you’re so paranoid about Judah, maybe they should at least see Gia.” X’s brow lifted slightly. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

X’s head snapped toward him. “I… can’t. Kai wasn’t happy the first time. He looked at me like I was a bad person.” He swallowed hard, eyes dropping to the floor for just a second. “I can’t have that again.” Victor nodded, understanding but refusing to let him retreat behind that wall. #ValGen3

Victor sighed softly. He knew this version of X—hyper-focused, gut-driven, impossible to sway. Still, he tried. “Maybe…” Victor pretended to be casual even though he was choosing his words carefully. “Maybe you should get the twins back into their lessons about Simkuza?” #ValGen3 #TheSims4

X’s response was immediate—a short, sharp shake of his head. “No. He didn’t.” There was no doubt in his voice. Judah giving up wasn’t in his nature. Not after losing so many battles to X. Not after spending years trying to find a weakness. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

“Still looking at it, huh?” X didn’t answer at first. His eyes were still glued to the board. Finally, with a low exhale, he muttered, “Something is weird… I can feel it.” Victor lifted a brow and turned to study X’s face. “Or maybe Judah gave up?” #ValGen3 #TheSims4

His right-hand man walked in with that steady gait he’d had since they were fourteen—reliable, grounding, the only person X trusted enough to walk into his office unannounced. Victor took one look at the board, then stepped beside him, hands sliding into his pockets. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

A cold ripple of paranoia slid under X’s skin. He didn’t get paranoid easily—but this silence felt like someone holding a knife right behind his back, waiting. Footsteps echoed down the hall. Then the door opened without a knock. Victor. Of course. #ValGen3 #TheSims4

X's jaw flexed as he scanned the board again, his eyes flicking from one red dot to the next. Judah had won—he’d gotten X thrown in jail. So why wasn’t he advancing? Why wasn’t he using the momentum? Why wasn’t he doing anything at all? #ValGen3 #TheSims4

Red dots. Lines. Movement logs. Surveillance notes. 𝗟𝗮 𝗖𝗼𝘀𝗮 𝗦𝗶𝗺𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮. He’d gone over this map a hundred times since being released. Every route, every hotspot, every familiar face. And the more he stared, the more uneasy he became. Judah had gone silent. Too silent. #ValGen3

The room was quiet in that heavy, humming way only underground headquarters could be. Cold cement walls, soft amber ceiling lights, the faint metallic tang of weapons oil. And in the center of it all, X stood with his arms folded, staring at the glowing digital map pinned across the wall. #ValGen3

HELLO! I'm posting a brand new update very very soon 👀 I don't know what to say about this update soo you'll just have to see 💙 #TheSims4

Hello hello!! A new update is coming tomorrow 🤭 Here's the feed to catch up 💙 #TheSims4

I'm not sure how I'm supposed to fit everything I want to say into 300 characters, so I'll just say this. 𝑻𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒌 𝒚𝒐𝒖. For sticking with me through all the times I've disappeared for months, or traumatised my characters, or taken 1000 words to say what I could have said with 10. It means the world.

My girl Val not being the center of my legacy anymore is soooo bittersweet 🥹 once heirs turn into teens it's almost all about them and their drama (which I love) but I'll be missing Val! There'll still be Val centered updates but we're really diving into Kai and Sora's life 🥹 #TheSims4

Sharing this here if you might be interested by a more visual sims story! www.tumblr.com/maiawesims/8...

Sade placed a hand on his cheek giving it a gentle caress, “I feel the same way.” She paused for a moment, her heart beating a million miles per hour. “Thank you, for never giving up on me…on us.” "For you, Sade. Always."

I forgot to say, but you don't have to know about the rest of the story to follow Adelyn's current spin-off!

Well this was another long one 🤭 I hope you liked this part focused on Sora and her personality! I don't know when the next update will be as me posting today was unexpected but I'll let you know! See you next time 💙 #TheSims4

Dakota threw her head back laughing. “You’re insane!” “Flavor sampler,”Sora said proudly. “It’s strategic.” The girls giggled, cackled, whispered, and screamed into their phones for the next hour—two teenage girls unraveling the chaos of first kisses, gross boys, and future possibilities. #ValGen3

Dakota SHRIEKED. “I KNEW IT! Of course you would do that!” Sora smirked. “What? I don’t want to settle down yet. So why not…” She lifted her hand, fingers splayed like presenting a menu. “Test out multiple boy flavors?” #ValGen3 #TheSims4

“So…” Dakota leaned closer to her phone, voice high with curiosity. “How was the kiss though? Was it good?” Sora stared at her nails, mask tightening on her face. “I don’t know…” She shrugged dramatically. “I’ll need to compare him with someone else.” #ValGen3 #TheSims4

The awkward silence, the dead-end conversation, the perfectly fine-but-unimpressive kiss, the disgusting forest couch, and her official announcement that she was never seeing Augustus again. Dakota listened like it was a crime documentary. #ValGen3 #TheSims4
