Chapter 60The words lodged in Marco’s chest like a blade.They moved quickly through the corridors until Frost pushed open the metal door to the torture room The room smelled faintly of rust and disinfectant. Brittany sat in the corner, knees drawn up, a thin blanket slipping from her shoulders. She wasn’t bound. She wasn’t bruised. But she looked… ruined.Her lips were split and grotesquely swollen—bitten until they bled raw. Her fingers were red and slick, nails jagged where she’d scraped them against the chair’s steel armrest over and over, until skin tore. Her bare toes were worse—angry, misshapen from the same relentless, mindless scrubbing.She didn’t look up. She didn’t even seem to hear them. She just kept digging her fingertips into the cold metal, as if trying to erase something only she could see."Come to annoy me again?" Her voice was flat, but when her head lifted and she saw Marco standing behind Frost, the blood drained from her face.Marco’s eyes froze on her, somet

Chapter 59~~~DARK DOMAIN~~~ 4PMFrost sat slouched in the clan balcony chair, cigarette dangling between his fingers, the smoke curling lazily into the afternoon air. His gaze was distant, jaw tight, the kind of upset that brewed in silence.Kendrox strolled in, hands in his pockets, and without a word slid into the seat beside him. He plucked the cigarette from Frost’s hand and crushed it in the ashtray."What the hell—" Frost began, but Kendrox was already snatching the whole packet from his lap and tossing it into the bin."You promised to quit," Kendrox said, calm but firm. "I’ve watched you burn through two packs already, and you’re halfway through a third. You looking to die early, or what?"Frost just rolled his eyes, slumping deeper into his chair. "Give it back, Ken. I’m not in the mood for your charity-work routine today.""It’s gone." Kendrox’s voice was final.Frost exhaled slowly through his nose. "What happened? Heartbreak or something serious?" Kendrox asked, watching

Chapter 58~~~UNKNOWN PLACE~~~ 2PMA shadow dropped from the high walls with the silent precision of a predator. Snow landed in a crouch, the dull thud of his boots muffled by the dirt. Without hesitation, he sprinted towards the building, his breath sharp and steady. Two guards stood posted by the rusted steel doors, rifles slung lazily over their shoulders—too slow to realize death had already come for them.Snow hit the first with a spinning kick that cracked his jaw sideways. The second tried to lift his gun but found himself slammed against the wall, his head bouncing off concrete before sliding down unconscious. Both bodies hit the ground almost at the same time.Inside, the air smelled of damp wood and gun oil. Sunlight cut in through broken windows, casting long, fractured shadows across the room. And there, by the tall window of the abandoned building, stood Ace—glass mask glinting like ice under the pale light."Where is my sister, Ace?" Snow’s voice was low, dangerous, his

Chapter 57~~~VELENO CLAN~~~ NEXT DAYMadam Gloria dragged her legs towards the Veleno gate, sweat dripping down her wrinkled forehead, soaking the collar of her faded dress. Every step felt like wading through wet sand, her shoes scuffing against the gravel road. Her breath came in shallow, ragged pulls, the air thick with the metallic tang of gun oil and smoke drifting from somewhere deep inside the compound.She lifted her trembling fist and knocked on the massive iron gate—once, twice—softly, almost as though afraid the very sound might get her killed.A guard appeared, his shadow stretching over her like a hunter’s snare. Recognition flickered in his eyes. Without a word, he stepped aside, pushing the gate just enough to let her through. The metal groaned like a beast warning her not to enter.Inside, the courtyard was eerily silent. No casual chatter from soldiers. No clinking of weapons. Just the low hum of danger vibrating in the air. She shuffled forward, dragging her tired l

Chapter 55It wasn’t until they pulled into his driveway that he spoke. He stepped out immediately, circling to her side. She stayed put, hands curled around her bag. He opened the door, leaning down slightly, rain beading on his lashes.For a second, his eyes softened—not in kindness, but in memory. The day he’d taken her to his secret hideout flashed through his mind, the way she had looked at him then.“Where am I?” she asked, her voice almost too steady, as though pretending she didn’t already know.“I’m sorry to scare you,” he said quietly. “You’ve never been to my house before… but I brought you here. I thought you might have… never startled.” His words stumbled, like he was trying not to say something else.Her brow knit. “Why did you bring me here?”“It’s raining,” he replied, his gaze holding hers a second too long. “And the roads to your house are probably flooded. They get flooded during the rainy season, right?”She hesitated before nodding, the smallest shiver running thr
