Blood soaked through Asher’s shirt, pooling beneath them.

“No.. no, no, no,” Reid muttered, pressing both hands to the wounds. “Come on. Don’t do this to me, Ash. Please.”

Asher's lashes fluttered. His lips parted with effort.

“Why…?”

That was all he could manage.

Reid’s face crumpled. “I didn’t want to hurt you, I wanted to save us. But you never looked at me like that. Never once.”

Gunfire came again, grazing the trees above their heads.

Reid snarled. “FUCK!”

He grabbed his own sidearm, firing two quick shots at the men flanking the treeline. One dropped. Another cursed and ducked.

“Asher, stay with me,” he whispered, voice trembling now. “Don’t you dare die. Not like this. Not because of me.”

Asher's eyes slid shut.

Reid's breath hitched.

“Please…”

He knew he had no more time.

He had to move.

He scooped Asher into his arms, staggering under the weight.

His own wound bled freely now, a graze across his bicep, nothing fatal. But Asher’s…

Reid gritted his teeth and took off running.

  • The Wrong Kind Of Right   Chapter 155

    The door opened with a slow, metallic creak, a sound too soft to belong in such a sterile, heavy place.Luca stepped in like a man walking through a dream, not knowing whether it would end in relief or heartbreak.The room was quiet, except for the steady rhythm of machines, a dull, mechanical beat that reminded him Asher was still here.Alive.But barely.Asher lay still on the hospital bed, pale against the white sheets. His face was scratched and bruised, a bandage wrapped tight across the left side of his head. Wires curled around his wrists, a heart monitor keeping time to a life suspended. His chest rose and fell under the thin gown, but it looked too fragile. Too slow.Luca’s steps were slow, hesitant. He’d faced corporate wars, boardrooms full of vultures, paparazzi storms, and scandal headlines… but nothing had ever brought him to his knees like this.He moved to the side of the bed, pulling the chair closer, fingers brushing the metal rail before gripping it tightly.“Hey,”

    Caldera stumbled back, drink spilling as Reid lunged.But the guards were faster. They grabbed Reid mid strike, wrenching him back as he fought tooth and nail, fury boiling over like a dam cracked too long.“You son of a bitch!” Reid screamed. “You set him up to die! And I.. I helped you! You twisted everything!”“You pulled the trigger,” Caldera said quietly, straightening. “I only gave you a mirror.”Reid froze. Chest heaving. That sentence carved straight through him.He had.He’d been the one to aim. The one to pull. Even if instinct, even if chaos, it was him.The guilt closed in like a vise.But beneath it… something else began to smolder.Resolve.“You think I’ll keep doing this for you?” Reid said, voice like gravel. “You think you can drag me back into the mud?”Caldera studied him. “No. I think you already are in the mud.”He turned to the guards. “Put him in the lower wing. I want him breathing, but not walking out.”Reid didn't fight this time. As they dragged him toward t

  • The Wrong Kind Of Right   Chapter 153

    The scarred man remained crouched for a beat longer after the word DEBT, crimson, angry strokes etched like a warning to ghosts and gods alike.But then… his eyes slid back to Asher.And something shifted.Cold calculation replaced that flicker of curiosity. This was war. Every move mattered. Every corpse told a story, and he was going to write the next one perfectly.Dominic’s words in his earpiece earlier had been simple: “Leave no trace of Reid. Make it Asher’s mess.”And now that the others were gone, the stage was his.With practiced efficiency, he moved to Reid’s footprints. He found a fallen branch and dragged it over the soft patches of soil, kicking up leaves, smoothing dirt. Then he moved to the broken foliage where Reid had crashed through with Asher in his arms.Gone in moments.He took Reid’s bloodied glove, one the idiot had dropped while pressing on Asher’s wound, and tossed it deep into the brush, far from the scene.Then he returned to Paolo.Carefully, he picked up

    Asher and Paolo stood twenty yards ahead, half shielded by the warped light cutting through the trees. They hadn't seen them yet.Paolo was limping. Asher was focused, gun raised and sharp eyed as always, sweeping the terrain.Reid’s thumb hovered over the safety.This is it, Caldera had said.One pull. One choice. One future.Reid could make it look like an ambush. Quick. Clean. Like one of the three men panicked and opened fire. Like Paolo went down in the chaos.He’d already been coached.The lie was easy.The aftermath even easier.But… his heart.It wouldn't stop racing.His mind flicked back.Six years ago.Asher standing outside the infirmary after another silent fight with another military personnel. His shoulders slumped, face bruised from a spar, but eyes, God, those eyes, still burning.“Do you ever regret it?” Reid had asked that night, voice low.Asher hadn’t looked at him.“Regret what?”“Letting me go. Watching as I left?”The silence that followed had cut him deeper th

    The bodycam shook violently.Gunfire.Screams.“SHOTS FIRED, VIRELLI MOVED!”“What the...?”Dominic’s blood ran cold.“What happened?” he barked into the line.“HE MOVED! VIRELLI MOVED!”The camera swung wildly, one of the agents lunging, trying to regain sight. The bullet meant for Paolo had hit the wall beside his head, shattering a picture frame. Dust exploded into the air.Asher had pulled him out of range at the last second, unaware of the real threat, only reacting on pure instinct.“TAKE COVER!” one of his men shouted.Dom’s face twisted in fury.Another failure.“Abort. ABORT!” he hissed. “Fall back. Regroup. Do not get caught!”The feeds blurred into static as one of the cameras was hit.One stream remained, a tilted angle showing Reid staring at the chaos, frozen. The other two agents moved to flank, trying to salvage the mission, but Asher had already drawn his weapon again, standing protectively in front of Paolo, eyes burning.Too late.Too exposed.Dominic slammed his fi
