MINE TO CLAIM SEEKING SHELTER
“You stupid, selfish bastard.”Riley Martinez didn’t wait for Leandro to fully collapse onto her couch before the words came pouring out. Blood soaked through his shirt, his face was gray with pain, but all she could think about were the months of warnings he’d ignored.“Riley, I—”“Don’t you dare.” She slammed her first aid kit onto the coffee table hard enough to make the supplies jump. “Don’t you dare try to explain this away like you did last time.”Leandro pressed his palm against his shoulder wound, watching her gather antiseptic and gauze with movements that were sharp and angry. Her dark hair had escaped its usual neat ponytail, and there were worry lines around her eyes that made her look older than her thirty-two years.“I need help,” he said quietly.“What you need is a psychiatrist.” Riley pulled on latex gloves with more force than necessary. “But since you’re bleeding on my furniture, I guess medical attention will have to do for now.”She moved his hand away from the wo
MINE TO CLAIM CHANGE OF PLANS
The underground chamber beneath Santos Parallax Corp had never held this many men at once. Two hundred of Dario’s most trusted soldiers filled the space, their faces hard and focused in the dim lighting. These weren’t ordinary employees or even typical enforcers. These were the men who had survived decades in the shadows, who had proven their loyalty through blood and bullets.Dario stood at the front of the room, his presence commanding absolute silence. He wore a simple black suit, no medallion visible, nothing to indicate the authority that radiated from him like heat from a forge. When he spoke, his voice carried to every corner without strain.“For three weeks, our enemies have believed they were winning,” he began. “They stole what they thought was the symbol of my power. They turned some of our own people against us. They made us appear weak.”Murmurs rippled through the crowd, but died quickly when Dario raised his hand.“Let them think they won. Let them celebrate their sto
MINE TO CLAIM HOSTAGE
Rebecca’s hands trembled as she pulled the cloth completely away from the woman’s face. The familiar features made her stomach drop like she had fallen off a cliff.“Ava,” she gasped, the name barely a whisper.Her best friend lay unconscious on the bed, pale and fragile in ways that Rebecca had never seen before. Dark circles shadowed her eyes, and her skin had the waxy pallor of someone who had lost too much blood. But it was definitely Ava - the woman she had been worried sick about for weeks.A thousand questions crashed through Rebecca’s mind at once. How had Ava ended up here? Why was she injured? What did her father have to do with any of this? And why had he insisted she come treat a patient without telling her who it was?.Rebecca checked Ava’s pulse one more time, then pulled the sheet back up to keep her warm. Her friend was stable for now, but she needed answers. She needed to understand what was happening.She found Roberto Don in his study, sitting behind the massive oak
MINE TO CLAIM UNEXPECTED PATIENT
Rebecca moved methodically through the cardiac unit, her clipboard in hand as she reviewed the morning’s patient files. Mrs. Rowen in room 301 was responding well to her new medication regimen - blood pressure down, swelling in her ankles reduced. She made a note to continue the current dosage for another week. Mr. Thompson’s post-operative recovery was ahead of schedule. His surgical sites were healing cleanly, and his cardiac function tests showed steady improvement. Rebecca updated his file with the latest lab results and scheduled him for discharge evaluation in three days.The Westley’s case required more attention. The elderly gentleman had been admitted with chest pains that turned out to be anxiety-related, but his underlying cardiac condition needed monitoring. Rebecca noted the psychiatrist’s recommendation for anti-anxiety medication and coordinated with Dr. Michael about adjusting his heart medications accordingly.After completing the file updates, she began her weekly
MINE TO CLAIM UNDERGROUND HOPE
Rosa Havier had been cleaning houses for forty-three years, but she had never worked in a home that felt as empty as the Santos penthouse did now. Every room echoed with absence, every carefully arranged piece of furniture seemed to wait for people who weren’t coming back.She moved through the master bedroom with mechanical precision, changing sheets that hadn’t been slept in for days. The bed was enormous, king-sized and covered in Italian linens that cost more than most people made in a month. But without Ava’s presence, it looked cold and unwelcoming.On the nightstand sat a bottle of prenatal vitamins that Ava had been taking faithfully every morning. Rosa picked it up, rattling the pills inside, and felt tears prick at her eyes. Somewhere in this city, that sweet girl was carrying the next generation of the Santos family, and no one knew if she was getting the care she needed.“Miss Rosa?”She turned to find Camilia standing in the doorway, looking lost and fragile in her ex
MINE TO CLAIM FALSE VICTORY
The command center buzzed with quiet activity as dozens of masked operatives worked at their stations. Monitor screens displayed feeds from across Northshore, tracking everything from police movements to financial transactions. The Shadow organization had spent decades building this network, and now it was finally paying dividends.At the center of it all stood the leader, still wearing his black mask despite being surrounded by his most trusted subordinates. He studied the main display screen, which showed a map of the city marked with various colored pins representing their operations.“Status report,” he said without turning around. Dexter, his second-in-command, stepped forward with a tablet in his hands. “Our contacts inside the Santos organization report continued unrest. Three more lieutenants have questioned Dario’s legitimacy since yesterday.”“And his response?”“Nothing. Complete silence. He hasn’t called any meetings, issued any statements, or made any moves to reassert
