THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION Peace
Ace's PovSophia's hand hovered over the documents for a long moment."Your counter-offer changes the entire structure of the agreement." Her eyes did not leave the documents. Her voice carried the specific tension of someone who had been forced to recalculate a carefully constructed plan.My hand rested flat on the table between us, my fingers spread wide to anchor myself. "The structure was built on separation. I am removing the separation. Everything else remains."Sophia looked up, her gaze moving from me to Nikolai to Ivan, her assessment methodical and complete, her thumb tapping once against the table's surface. "The testimony requires you to be available for questioning at unpredictable intervals. The logistics of maintaining three witnesses in the same location while preserving operational security is significantly more complex than managing one."Nikolai's arms crossed over his chest, his weight shifted slightly toward the edge of his chair. "Complexity is not the same as i
THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION Agreement
Ace's PovThe temporary safe house was quiet while the infant slept in the corner and Elena slept beside the infant. Ghost slept on the cot near the door, but Luca remained on the perimeter while Rem remained at the monitoring station while Nikolai remained at the table while Ivan remained at the window while I stood in the center of the room."Sophia's offer.""Yes.""Limited immunity.""Yes.""New identity.""Yes.""Testimony against the Aegis network.""Yes.""Everyone else." I looked at both of them. "Everyone we have worked with and everyone who has helped us and everyone who has been part of this.""Yes.""I want to take the offer."Nikolai looked at me with a steady gaze. "I know.""Elena needs a clean life, the child needs a clean life and Ghost needs a clean life. Luca needs a chance to learn what choosing means, so the only way any of that happens is if we take the offer.""The testimony costs everything else.""The testimony costs the network because the network is the thr
THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION Final Stand
Ivan's PovThe man in the camera frame was forty meters from Luca when the engagement started, and Luca closed the distance in four seconds while the man turned toward Luca instead of the vehicle, which was the decision that changed the engagement.Luca took the first hit on his forearm and absorbed it while continuing to move forward, but the man was trained and Luca was trained differently, with the difference visible in the way Luca used the space between them.I moved from the south entrance while Nikolai moved from the north. Ace was still holding Kane at the center of the plaza while the camera tracked the engagement that remained contained to the east side of the plaza where the vehicle had been.Luca had the man on the ground before I reached them and had the man's weapon secured before Nikolai reached them, and he had the man's comm unit disabled before I finished the approach.
THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION Spectacle
Ace's PovThe Vanguard financial exchange plaza at noon was exactly the public space Nikolai had described, open on four sides with continuous news media camera coverage from two fixed positions and foot traffic that made any single individual indistinguishable from a distance but completely visible up close.I arrived at eleven fifty-five, my hands in my jacket pockets, my eyes scanning the perimeter with the focus I had learned across the past year.Nikolai was already positioned at the north side of the plaza in a vehicle with Rem. Ivan was at the south entrance with Luca. Luca had taken the assignment without being asked and had positioned himself correctly without instruction.Ghost and Elena and the child were at a location none of the above parties knew. That was the security architecture. The only person who knew where Elena was at this moment was Rem and Rem was not telling any
THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION Counter
Nikolai's PovThe address Victor Kane sent was a private building in the financial district.I read the address printed on the communication, my eyes moving across the characters once, twice, three times, then I put the paper down on the table and looked at Ace with the stillness that meant I had already made my decision."No."Ace's hand paused mid-reach for the document. "I have not proposed anything yet.""You were about to propose going to that address alone." My fingers pressed flat against the table. "The answer is no."Ivan leaned forward from across the table. "We said we would go together.""We said that." My gaze stayed fixed on Ace. "Kane specified alone."Ace's jaw tightened. "Kane specifying something does not make it the operating condition. Kane is one person funding a private military contract from personal resources because he has run out of organizational capacity. He does not get to specify conditions.""He can still hurt people.""Yes." My voice was flat. "That is
THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION Sync
Ivan's PovThe Victor Kane bounty was different from the Aegis broadcast in one specific way that mattered immediately.The Aegis broadcast had been public and had named me publicly. That created pressure on Aegis from journalists and former clients and international commentary. A public move was a move that could be countered publicly.Victor Kane's bounty was private. Distributed through criminal network channels that Lila Chen could not write about. She could not verify them through legitimate sources. Directed at people who operated ins22ide those networks. They would respond to the incentive without any of the accountability that public actions carried."He learned from the broadcast error." Nikolai was reading the Victor Kane communication at the operational table. His shoulder had finally been addressed by the surgeon Rem brought to the third safe house the previous evening."Yes. The public move produced the Lila Chen story. He will not make a public move again.""So the journ
THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION NEW PLAY THING
Ace's pov Darkness pulsed behind my eyelids as a low throb echoed in my skull— slow at first, then pounding; violent and merciless.I sucked in a breath. My body didn’t move. Instead, my wrists screamed when I tried. My ankles too.Panic snapped through me so sharply I nearly choked on it. What th
THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION NEW TARGET
Sergei's pov I hated loose ends.I hated them more than sloppy employers, more than late payments, more than blood that wouldn't wash out of my clothes.But this loose end? This fucking kid?I wanted to crush his windpipe with my bare hands.He had me chasing him halfway across Vanguard City, thro
THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION THE DEADLY TWINS
Ace's povI was shaking so badly my teeth rattled. In my mad dash to submit my assignment, I had forgotten my phone back at the bar.The assignment…I was still holding it, clutched in my hands so tight my fingers had actually broken through the first page.It didn't matter anymore. Since I was s

Ace’s POVI thought I was just dropping off papers for my professor.One wrong door.One second too long.And suddenly I’m staring at America’s most dangerous Bratva twins — the Volkov brothers — mid-kill.Nikolai, the older one, lets his voice hit my ear like a cold blade:“You’re not going anywher
