The jet touched down in Vienna just as the sky began to pale.

Dante stepped onto the tarmac with Elena asleep against his chest. Sienna walked beside him, Leo’s small hand locked in hers. Six armed men fanned out around them. Franz’s security. Alert. Silent. Efficient.

Franz was waiting near the hangar.

“Welcome back.”

He looked worn. Greyer. Like the last few months had carved something out of him.

“Cars are ready. Safe house is secure.”

“Good.” Dante scanned rooftops, windows, blind spots. Ha

  • 7 Nights With My Step Brother's Rival    Chapter 72 : The Attack on the Azores

    São Miguel Island - Nine Hours EarlierSienna woke to the sound of Elena crying.The soft wail cut through the quiet darkness of the farmhouse.She blinked at the clock beside the bed.5:02 AM.Still night.Still peaceful.Still safe.At least, that was what it felt like.She slipped out of bed and walked to the crib. Elena kicked her tiny legs when she saw her mother, face scrunching up with impatience."Alright, alright," Sienna whispered gently. "Mama's here."She lifted the baby into her arms.Warm. Soft. Perfect.Elena quieted almost instantly once she began nursing.The house was silent except for the soft sounds of the ocean outside and the faint wind brushing the windows.Moments like this made the world feel simple.Safe.After Elena finished, Sienna rocked her slowly.Back and forth.Back and forth.Soon the baby drifted back to sleep.Sienna laid her carefully in the crib and tucked the blanket around her tiny body.Then she peeked into Leo's room.The door was slightly ope

  • 7 Nights With My Step Brother's Rival    Chapter 71 : The Albanian Compound

    Dawn crept slowly over the Albanian mountains.Cold light spilled across the jagged ridges. Thin mist clung to the valleys like smoke that refused to leave.Dante crouched behind a line of rocks halfway up the slope.Below them, Viktor Kozlov’s compound sat carved into the mountainside. Old stone. Thick walls. Built to survive a siege.And today, it would get one.Twenty one operators spread across the hills. Three teams. Moving like shadows through the gray morning.No one talked.Boots barely touched the gravel.Safety switches clicked quietly.In Dante’s ear, Franz’s voice finally broke the silence.“Team Alpha in position. North side.”A second later Catarina came through.“Bravo ready. South exit covered.”Dante kept his eyes on the compound.The main gate sat directly below him. Steel reinforced. Guard tower to the left.Two men smoking outside.Relaxed.They had no idea what was about to happen.Dante spoke calmly into the mic.“Charlie in position. Front entrance.”A pause.Ev

    Dante tried to step back.He truly did.For three days he forced himself to let Franz handle things. Franz coordinated the search teams, approved operations, and followed leads without Dante breathing down his neck.Dante stayed away from the war room. Stayed away from the maps and intelligence briefings.Instead he tried to be present.He spent long evenings with Sienna. They cooked together. Walked through the quiet streets outside the apartment. Sometimes they said very little. Just being close felt like a fragile victory.He called Leo and Elena every night. The kids were staying with Marta in the Azores.Leo showed him drawings. Elena waved at the screen and laughed whenever Dante made silly faces.For a moment it almost felt normal.Almost.But every update from Franz tightened the knot inside Dante’s chest.Another lead gone cold.Another sighting that turned out to be nothing.Another report that said the same thing.No sign of Kozlov.Every hour that passed without progress m

  • 7 Nights With My Step Brother's Rival    Chapter 69 : Viktor’s Revenge

    The first attack came three days after Prague.Paris woke to sirens and smoke.A car exploded outside a Council member’s office just before nine in the morning. The blast shattered windows across the street and sent pedestrians running. The target survived. His driver did not.Police sealed the area. Paramedics worked the wreckage.On the wall beside the ruined car, someone had sprayed a message in black paint.This is just the beginning. VKTwo days later Berlin was hit.The Council security chief stepped into his office just after sunset. He never made it to his desk. A single shot shattered the glass and punched through his chest. The sniper had been positioned somewhere across the street.One clean shot. Professional. No witnesses. No trace.Within an hour several Council members received the same email.You cannot hide. I will find you all.The emergency conference call that followed was tense.Franz Kohler looked exhausted, the lines around his eyes deeper than usual.“He’s es

    3:00 a.m. Vienna.The safe house felt like a bunker. Concrete walls. Low lights. The hum of servers and live feeds washing the room in blue.Dante stood in front of three screens.Paris. Berlin. Prague.Three cities. Three teams. One shot to break the Syndicate’s spine.He pressed a finger to his earpiece. “Team Alpha.”Sienna answered from Paris. Calm. Too calm. “In position. Twelve hostiles visible. Warehouse confirmed.”His jaw tightened. She should not have been there. But she had looked him in the eye and told him she was done being protected.“Team Bravo.”Catarina’s voice crackled in. “Berlin ready. Heavy security. We can handle it.”“Team Charlie.”Franz exhaled before speaking. “Prague set. Kozlov is inside. Visual confirmed.”Dante checked the time.3:14.Every strike synced to hit at 3:15 local time. Precision was everything. Shock. Overwhelm. No chance for coordination.He swallowed the knot in his throat.“Sixty seconds. Fast and clean. No hesitation.”Acknowledgments cam

Everyone.”---The safe house sat at the top of a modern concrete block overlooking the city. Bulletproof glass. One entry point. Guards on rotation. Cameras everywhere.Exactly how Dante liked it.Leo thought it was an adventure. Ran from room to room like it was a hotel.Elena slept through all of it.Two hours later, the mood shifted.Conference room. Screens lit up. Maps. Photos. Timelines.Fourteen Council members. The ones still alive. Catarina stood near th
