With that renewed resolve, she realized her right hand was still free, and the pepper spray remained tucked into the pocket of her trousers.

She waited until Marcus leaned closer.

Then she drove her knee into his groin.

His entire body jerked. The pipe slipped away from her throat as he doubled over with a strangled cry, and Charity immediately used the opportunity to wrench herself out of his grip.

Before he could recover, she pulled the pepper spray from her pock

    With that renewed resolve, she realized her right hand was still free, and the pepper spray remained tucked into the pocket of her trousers.She waited until Marcus leaned closer.Then she drove her knee into his groin.His entire body jerked. The pipe slipped away from her throat as he doubled over with a strangled cry, and Charity immediately used the opportunity to wrench herself out of his grip.Before he could recover, she pulled the pepper spray from her pocket and aimed it directly at his face.She emptied half the can into his good eye.Marcus screamed.He stumbled backward, clawing at his face as the spray burned through his eye and across his skin. His pipe struck the concrete with a loud clang, and he dropped to his knees, cursing and gasping while tears streamed down his already swollen face.“Get it out! Fucking get it out!”Charity didn’t stay to watch him suffer.Her shoulder was s

    Charity reached the side porch just as the damaged latch finally gave way.The metal bolt snapped with a sharp crack, and the gate swung inward, striking the wall with a heavy clang.Marcus came through first, gripping a thick metal pipe in his right hand.His swollen eye was still weeping, and the red, irritated skin around it made his expression even uglier.He looked furious, but beneath the anger was something more troubling: the confidence of a man who believed he had finally cornered the person who had humiliated him.The first thug followed closely behind him, with the second man stepping through moments later.The floodlights would do little to stop three men who had already forced their way through the gate.Her stun gun had fallen somewhere along the corridor during her hurried approach, leaving her with only the pepper spray in her pocket and whatever she could use from the porch.Fortunately,

    Thomas gave a soft laugh.“Lying is fine as long as the liar is useful. But I don’t have much patience for someone who exaggerates what he knows.”Daniel’s face reddened. He could feel sweat running down his temples, and his cracked lips hurt whenever he spoke.He had already crawled across the road and offered to betray Charity.If Thomas decided he had nothing valuable to contribute, he might be left with nothing more than humiliation.“Wait, sir. There’s something I know for certain.”Thomas looked at him expectantly.“The side gate. That’s the weakest point.”“What makes you say that?”“I damaged it before. I tried getting inside when Charity refused to answer me. I jammed a crowbar into the latch, and the iron bent. Her workers came afterward and patched it, but they didn’t replace the entire gate. I’m sure it&rsquo

    “Those fuel trucks came here several times. I watched them pump fuel into underground tanks through a valve near the driveway. She has a huge solar array on the roof, too. That's how she keeps the lights and everything else running even when the rest of the street has no electricity.”He spoke faster as he realized Thomas was finally paying attention.“She also has plenty of supplies. I've seen her drive out at night and return at dawn with her vehicle loaded. Food, water, everything. She has been preparing for this for weeks, and I know the layout of the property because I used to live with her.”Daniel's hands trembled against the asphalt as he tried to keep up with his life.He wasn’t exactly sure about what he was doing. But he was desperate. Anything for survival.He was exhausted, humiliated, and desperate, but the possibility of gaining something from Thomas made him forget his discomfort.

    Charity almost laughed.Thomas had managed to turn an attempted takeover of her property into an offer that supposedly benefited everyone involved.He wanted her house, her generators, and her fuel, but he was presenting the arrangement as though she should be grateful for the opportunity to accommodate him.She pressed the gate speaker.“What I do with my property and my fuel is no longer anyone’s business.”Her voice was flat and unmistakable.Thomas’s smile remained in place, although something tightened around his eyes.“Come now, Charity. I don’t think you’ve fully considered what I’m offering. Gold bars, a secure residence, and access to the resources of Vance Heights. You can’t expect to maintain this entire property indefinitely on your own.”“I didn’t ask for your advice.”“You’re making a mistake.”&ldqu

    During their earlier encounter, he had assumed Charity was simply an unusually prepared young woman who had become obsessed with buying supplies.He had even tried to persuade her to sell him her fuel contract, convinced that she had purchased far more than she could possibly need.She had refused him, then managed to lose the vehicles he sent to follow her.At the time, Thomas had found her stubbornness irritating.Now, looking at the heavily fortified property and the private deliveries arriving despite the city’s collapse, he was beginning to understand that he had underestimated her badly.This was no ordinary residence.It was a hidden fortress stocked with resources, protected by security, and apparently equipped to remain comfortable long after the rest of the city had become uninhabitable.Thomas’s eyes narrowed as he studied the villa, and a sharp, greedy glint appeared in them.He had just realized t
