MICHAEL’S POV

"It's time. Activate Protocol Omega."

I spoke into the phone the guard had slipped me an hour ago. The line was secure and untraceable.

On the other end, a voice responded. "Confirmed! Protocol Omega is active, all assets deploying now."

I hung up and handed the phone back through the cell bars to the guard I'd been paying for three years. He took it without a word and walked away.

Maximum security holding cell, they thought I was trapped.

They had no idea.

I sat back on the uncom

    ALVIN'S POV"She told me I wasn't a monster."Nobody heard it. I said it to the empty street because saying it out loud was the only way to check if it still felt true.The step was cold through my clothes. I had been sitting on it since two in the morning, back against the door, knees up, watching the street do nothing. No games, no screens, no horn counting down to something designed to kill me. Just a silent road, a handful of streetlights, the kind of ordinary I had spent my whole life being kept away from.I thought about Serena. When she saved me from my own evil mother. The pipe she swung, plus the sound it made when it connected with Patricia's skull. The way she looked afterward, breathing hard, not sorry, completely certain she had done the right thing.She was more like me than I had admitted then.Same damage, same anger and same willingness to swing when swinging was the only language available.She died in that subway station, and I was not there. I had been unconscious

    SARAH'S POV"Is this what normal feels like?"Nobody answered because nobody was awake to answer. I mentioned it to the kitchen, to the window, to the ordinary street outside where a car rolled past without hurrying, headlights sweeping the wall, gone.I wrapped both hands around the cup Viktor's contact had left in the cabinet. The tea had gone cold twenty minutes ago. I kept holding it anyway because having something to hold felt necessary.The safe house was unremarkable in the way Viktor did everything, functional, clean, chosen for what it wasn't rather than what it was. No cameras on the exterior. No neighbors close enough to matter. Seven people breathing in separate rooms, alive, outside, no games running.I sat with that.No games running.No horn at five in the morning. No water rising in a sealed room. No screen updating a life count. No Controller's voice filling the corridor with something designed to break the person hearing it.Just a kitchen, a window and a street.It

    MICHAEL'S POV"Your father had more sons than you knew about."The voice came from the direction of the SUV before I fully processed that the door had opened. I turned.The man stood fifty meters out, hands loose at his sides, no weapon visible. He was looking directly at me, not at the survivors dispersing around us, not at the building settling into its final collapse behind us, not at the agents working the perimeter. At me specifically."I am the third one," he continued, walking forward at a pace that was unhurried but covered ground fast. "My name is Rael. I have been waiting for this building to come down for a very long time."I watched him close the distance. My brain ran the inventory before he reached me.Jaw: same line as mine, slightly heavier. Eyes: same depth, different color, darker by two shades. The way he carried his weight across both feet when he stopped, the particular stillness of a man who had learned that movement drew attention. I had seen that posture in mir

    SARAH'S POV"Move, move, move. Left corridor, second hatch. Go now."Viktor's voice came through the communication channel with the flat urgency of someone who had already run the numbers, did not like them, was moving anyway. I pushed the last two players through the corridor entrance ahead of me, watched them hit the hatch, watched Viktor's contact pull it open from the other side.Cold air rushed in.Real air. And I meant outside air. The kind that carried no chemical burn, no recycled concrete smell, nothing that the building had been feeding us for weeks.The players went through without stopping.I turned back."Michael." I moved toward the observation room corridor. "We need to go now."He came out of the corridor at a controlled run, Davina two steps behind him. Both of them had heard Viktor's transmission. Neither of them was running at full speed, which meant there was something still happening between them that had not finished, a conversation continuing in the silence arou

  • Trapped In My Husband’s Golden Cage    Chapter 126: "The Exit Nobody Knows About"

    CLAUDIA'S POV"Override accepted. East service junction, clear."I said it to nobody. A habit from months of running this building, confirming aloud what the system confirmed silently. The system was not running anymore. The power to the monitoring grid had dropped ninety seconds ago, floor by floor, the building eating itself from the bottom up exactly the way Khalid had designed it to.He had always been thorough. I had admired that about him before I put a blade in him.The service tunnel ran parallel to the northeast section, low-ceilinged, concrete on all sides, the kind of space that existed in this building because Khalid had needed routes that his own cameras could not see. I had found this particular tunnel eleven days after taking the mask. Not from any schematic but from physical exploration, the same way I had found everything worth knowing in my life.Nobody had taught me anything useful. I had walked into every room I needed and taken what was there.The floor shuddered

    SARAH'S POV"How many players are still in the hall?"Viktor's voice crackled through the communication channel before I cleared the observation room doorway."Thirty confirmed. Gas is coming through the north vents, which started two minutes ago."I was already running.The corridor outside the observation room was nothing like it had been twenty minutes ago. Three guards were moving away from their posts toward the stairwells, weapons holstered, making their own calculations about a sinking ship. I pressed against the wall as they passed, let them go, kept moving.Behind me I heard Michael zip-tying Claudia to the chair. I heard the plastic bite tight. I heard Claudia say nothing, which was worse than anything she could have said.The stairwell door hit the wall when I pushed through it.Two floors down. The shaking was different on the stairs, more direct, running up through the steps into my knees with every landing. Whatever Khalid had installed in the foundations was not subtle.

Serena lunged forward, throwing herself between me and the doctor. "Stay away from her, you psycho bitch!"One of the orderlies grab
