THESE BROTHERS

ARIA'S POV

The tension inside Interview Room Three thickened the moment Nico spoke his brother’s name.

Through the one-way glass, I watched the two men study each other in silence. They looked similar enough that anyone could recognize the shared blood between them—same dark hair, same sharp lines in their faces—but the energy they carried was completely different.

Nico stood like a storm waiting to break.

Luca sat like the man who had already calculated where the lightning w

    78THE SAFE ROOMARIAThe first thing I noticed was how fast everyone moved.There was no confusion.No panic.No shouting.The moment the gunfire echoed through the estate, every guard in the hallway seemed to switch into a different version of themselves. Their movements became sharper, more deliberate, as though they had rehearsed this exact scenario dozens of times.Maybe they had.Marcus placed himself slightly in front of me."Stay between us."I nodded.My throat had gone dry.Another burst of gunfire echoed from somewhere below.The sound reverberated through the walls of the house, making my pulse spike again.The intruders were inside.Actually inside.Not at the gates.Not outside the perimeter.Inside.The realization felt surreal.Yesterday, this house had seemed untouchable.Now it felt like a battlefield.Marcus touched the radio clipped to his shoulder."Status."Static crackled.Then a voice answered."North corridor compromised. Two hostiles confirmed."Another voice

    SECOND HALF OF THE PLANARIAI turned immediately."Come in."The door opened and one of Luca's guards stepped inside.It was Marcus, one of the men I had seen around the estate several times.Tall.Serious.Professional."Everything okay?" I asked."Yes, miss."The fact that he answered so quickly made me suspicious."You're lying."His expression didn't change."I assure you, I'm not."I folded my arms."Then why are there twice as many guards outside my room as there were this afternoon?"That finally earned a reaction.A small one.But enough.Marcus hesitated."Additional precautions.""Because of Luca's operation?""Partially."The knot in my stomach tightened."What happened?""Nothing has happened.""Marcus."He sighed.Very slightly."The boss requested increased security before he left."That wasn't an answer.It was an avoidance.And we both knew it.Before I could press further, a voice crackled through the radio attached to his shoulder.Static.Then—"Movement detected n

    HALF THE PLAN LUCAA sharp whistle suddenly cut through the rain.Luca’s instincts reacted instantly.“Move!”He grabbed the wounded guard and threw both of them sideways just as an explosive detonated against the crates behind them.The blast shook the entire loading area.Metal screamed.Fire erupted briefly before rain began smothering it.The force of the explosion slammed Luca hard against the pavement.Pain shot through his shoulder.For half a second, his hearing dulled into a high ringing tone.Then reality crashed back all at once.Gunfire.Shouting.Rain.Chaos.The wounded guard groaned nearby.Alive.Good.Luca pushed himself up quickly, ignoring the ache in his arm.The explosion had changed things.Smoke now filled part of the loading bay, creating temporary cover.An opportunity.“Dominic,” he said sharply into the comms. “Fall back to the west exit.”“We’re pinned!”“You won’t be in ten seconds.”Luca grabbed a flash grenade from his jacket.Pulled the pin.Then threw

    75THE KILL ZONELUCAThe rain made everything harder.Visibility.Movement.Blood.Water poured down the steel containers in endless streams while gunfire ripped through the dockyard from multiple directions. The sharp cracks of rifles echoed violently across the waterfront, blending with the distant thunder rolling over Stonehaven.Luca stayed low behind the container as another round of bullets tore into the metal above them.Sokolov’s men had positioned themselves perfectly.Elevated angles.Crossfire coverage.Limited escape routes.Professional.Very professional.Dominic checked his weapon beside him, breathing controlled despite the chaos erupting around them.“How bad?”Luca glanced toward the far end of the dockyard where two of his men were pinned behind a forklift under relentless fire.“Bad enough.”A voice burst through the comms.“Roof team on the east side!”Another burst of gunfire followed immediately after.Then silence.Luca’s expression darkened.One of his men wa

    74THE DOCKSLUCAOld warehouses lined the waterfront like giant shadows, their rusted structures illuminated only by scattered streetlights and the distant glow of cargo ships out on the water.Stonehaven’s polished image disappeared here.This was the part of the city tourists never saw.The part that belonged to smugglers, traffickers, and men who preferred conducting business away from cameras.Luca had spent years navigating places exactly like this.And tonight, every instinct he possessed told him something was wrong.The convoy finally slowed near the end of a narrow side street.“There,” Dominic said quietly.Luca looked ahead.An old warehouse stood near the water, partially hidden behind stacks of shipping containers. Most of the building remained dark except for faint light spilling from a few upper windows.It looked abandoned.Which usually meant it wasn’t.The SUVs stopped.Rain tapped softly against the roof as Luca studied the building for several long seconds.“Therm

    73THE WAITING ARIAHis voice was quieter now.Deadlier.“You don’t get to pull pieces out of my past just because you’re frustrated.”“I’m not frustrated.”“Then what are you?”The question hit harder than I expected.What was I?Terrified?Angry?Confused?All of it.“I’m tired,” I admitted quietly. “I’m tired of feeling powerless.”Something in Luca’s expression shifted again.The anger faded slightly, replaced by something more complicated.Understanding.He walked toward me slowly until only a small distance remained between us.“You are not powerless,” he said quietly.“Then why does everyone keep making decisions for me?”“Because keeping you alive matters.”“To who?”His gaze locked onto mine.“To me.”The words landed with startling force.The air between us seemed to tighten instantly.Neither of us moved.For one dangerous moment, everything else faded—the guards, the threats, the war building around us.It was just him.Just the intensity in his eyes.Just the way my puls
