The security feed showed Dimitri standing at the entrance like he owned the threshold between worlds. He was bandaged across his chest. His left arm hung at an angle that suggested broken bones. His face was grey in a way that had nothing to do with the lighting and everything to do with the cancer eating him from inside.

But he was smiling.

Anastasia and Lena walked toward him through the facility's outer corridor. Mother and daughter. Weapon and legacy. Everything Dimitri had created walking

  • Kisses of a HitWoman   CHAPTER 61: THE CHOICE DIMITRI NEVER MADE

    Adrian's thumb moved toward the detonator button.Not hesitantly. With the particular certainty of someone who'd calculated this moment a thousand times. The moment when control became impossible. The moment when surrender felt like betrayal."Adrian," Dominic said. His voice was calm but there was something underneath. Something that suggested he understood exactly what was about to happen. "Don't do this. Don't give them the victory of your destruction.""It's not destruction," Adrian said quietly. He was looking at the device in his hand like it was the most beautiful thing he'd ever created. "It's completion. It's the final orchestration. It's me deciding how this ends instead of letting someone else decide for me."Vera moved.She crossed the distance between herself and Adrian in three steps. She grabbed his wrist. Not violently. Just with the particular firmness of someone who understood leverage and pressure points."You taught me something," Vera said. She was looking directl

  • Kisses of a HitWoman   CHAPTER 60: THE SURFACE'S PRICE

    The sunlight was overwhelming.Elena hadn't realized how much she'd missed it until the moment it hit her face. The particular warmth of Prague's afternoon light. The specific quality of air that wasn't recycled through a dying facility. The sound of the city above them. Real. Present. Absolutely indifferent to what had just happened in the darkness below.They emerged from what looked like an abandoned cathedral basement.The passage opened into a street-level storage room. Old. Forgotten. The kind of space cities built and then stopped remembering. Vera was checking her handheld device, her fingers moving rapidly across the screen. Elena could see the uploads completing. Could see the information spreading across every platform simultaneously."It's done," Vera said quietly. She wasn't celebrating. Wasn't showing any emotion at all. Just stating facts the way she'd been trained to state facts. "Every government. Every media outlet. Every organization with internet access is receivin

  • Kisses of a HitWoman   CHAPTER 59: THE INFORMATION WEAPON

    Adrian's hand moved to his radio. "Shut it down," he commanded. But there was something in his voice that suggested he already understood. Already understood that shutting down an upload that had already begun was technically impossible. "Shut down the information release. Now." "We can't," someone said through the radio. Their voice was panicked. Desperate. The voice of someone realizing they'd just lost control of everything. "The protocol is fully automated. It's distributed across multiple servers. it's already halfway through. We estimate forty minutes until complete upload." Vera was smiling. It was a smile without warmth. A smile that contained the particular satisfaction of someone who'd finally made a choice that was entirely her own. Elena could see her daughter understanding something fundamental. Could see Vera realizing that she'd just become the architect instead of the weapon. "You taught me something useful," Vera said to Adrian. She was looking at him directly now

  • Kisses of a HitWoman   CHAPTER 58: THE THIRD SON

    Adrian stepped forward, and Elena realized she'd seen this man before. Not in person. In photographs. In the facility files that Dimitri had kept. The son who wasn't supposed to exist. The operative who'd supposedly been killed in training when he was twelve years old. "You're dead," Vera said flatly. She was processing information at speeds that suggested her mind was fragmenting trying to catalogue all the lies. "Dimitri said you were dead. He said you died in a training accident along with" "Along with Nikolai," Adrian finished. He was looking at the brother standing beside Elena. The twin who'd learned to be human. "Except we didn't die. We just disappeared. We just learned very early that the only way to survive Dimitri was to let him believe we were already gone." Marco was moving now. He was checking Elena's group for injuries. But his movements were different. More clinical. More professional. Like he was assessing assets instead of people he'd spent months pretending to c

  • Kisses of a HitWoman   CHAPTER 57: THE BETRAYAL IN MOTION

    Stone was falling like rain. Elena grabbed Vera's hand and pulled her toward the medical chamber. Behind them, the cathedral was collapsing in sections. Anastasia was moving with surprising speed for someone who'd just woken from cryo-suspension. Nikolai was supporting her, his face grim, his eyes calculating angles of escape. "The corridor," Elena shouted over the sound of destruction. "Sable said through the medical chamber." "Sable also just died," Katarina said sharply. She was checking the corridor entrance. Her weapon was drawn. That protective sister who'd spent her entire life reading danger. "Which means that corridor might be exactly where Magdalena wants us to go." "We don't have a choice," Vera said. She was already moving toward the chamber. "We have approximately sixty seconds before this entire section collapses. We can die here debating or die running through a corridor that might be a trap." They moved. The medical chamber was partially destroyed. Equipment was s

    Sable fired before anyone could process his appearance.The bullet caught Dominic in the chest. Not the shoulder. Not a warning. The center mass. The kind of shot that suggested Sable had spent years perfecting exactly this moment.Dominic dropped."That's for Marco," Sable said flatly. He was walking deeper into the cathedral, and behind him came forty operatives. Not Victoria's people. Not Anastasia's people. Operatives wearing insignia that Elena didn't recognize. "That's for the man who chose loyalty when everyone else was choosing survival.""Sable," Elena said. She was moving toward her brother, but Katarina's grip tightened. "What are you doing? Why are you""Working for the person who actually matters," Sable interrupted. He was looking at Vera now. And his expression was absolutely devastating. "Working for the woman who's been orchestrating this entire operation since before you were even born."Vera stepped back."No," Vera whispered. "No, you're lying. I was trained by Dim
