Trigger Me Gently CHAPTER THIRTY FIVE: THE FIRST WIFE
BOY: “Don’t… let her touch me.”The words were weak, almost swallowed by the dark, but they froze everyone.SOLENE: “Stay with me.”Her hands were clamped on his arm, blood seeping through her fingers.WOMAN: “He’s mine, Solene. Always has been.”Lucien stepped in front of Solene without hesitation, his pistol angled at the woman’s chest.LUCIEN: “Take one more step and you won’t walk out.”The woman’s laugh was slow, deliberate.WOMAN: “You think I’m afraid of a man who doesn’t even know the body count tied to his own name?”In the dark, Alpha’s voice slid between them.ALPHA: “She’s not here to kill the boy. She’s here to rewrite him… again.”SOLENE: “Rewrite?”Her voice cracked, but not from fear, rage.The woman tilted her head.WOMAN: “They didn’t tell you? You weren’t the first overwrite. I was. The prototype.”LUCIEN: “And they scrapped you.”Her smile sharpened.WOMAN: “No. I walked away. Took my memories with me. And now ” she glanced at the boy “I’m taking what’s mine.”BOY
Trigger Me Gently CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR: NO ONE MARRIES A MONSTER
LOCATION: NEW EDEN – FUNERAL OF A TRAITORTIME: 11:47 a.m.The church smelled like lilies and gunpowder.Lucien sat in the front row, black suit, black tie, black mood.Solene was beside him, legs crossed, wearing a dress that could’ve been mourning or a threat depending on the angle.The coffin in front of them wasn’t for Violet. That body had vanished before anyone could bury it.This was for Angelo’s second-in-command.The man Alpha had gutted and left swinging from the pier three nights ago.Lucien didn’t believe in open caskets. The lid stayed shut. The message didn’t.PRIEST: “We commit his soul to ”The doors slammed open.Two Romano soldiers stepped inside, eyes scanning, hands on their weapons.Behind them… walked her.Bianca Romano.Alive.Wearing red.SOLENE (low, to Lucien): “You said she was in hiding.”LUCIEN: “I said she should be.”Bianca’s gaze slid over the mourners like she was scanning for prey, and when her eyes found Lucien she smiled.BIANCA: “I came to pay my
Trigger Me Gently CHAPTER THIRTY THREE: THE BLOODY VOWS
“Smile for the camera, darling. It’s the last time your enemies won’t know what you’re planning.”Bianca’s voice was dipped in poison and champagne.Solene didn’t flinch.LOCATION: ROMANO TOWER – 57TH FLOOR PRIVATE BALLROOMTIME: 9:02 p.m.Glass chandeliers. Red silk. Wine that tasted like blood.The engagement party wasn’t just a spectacle, it was a declaration of power.Lucien stood beside Solene, sharp in black. The ring on her hand had been polished twice. His arm around her waist was a leash and a weapon.Bianca approached in white.Too white. Like war dressed up as a wedding.Bianca (smiling): “You clean up nicely, Solene. I almost forgot you broke my collarbone.”Solene: “Give me five minutes. I’ll break something you actually use.”Lucien said nothing. Just watched. Assessed. Calculated.Bianca’s voice dropped. “You should thank me. This alliance keeps you both alive. For now.”Solene: “Is that what this is? A peace treaty over hors d’oeuvres?”Bianca’s smile sharpened. “No, d
Trigger Me Gently CHAPTER THIRTY TWO: ENGAGED TO SURVIVE
“Don’t say it unless you mean it.”Solene’s voice cut through the silence like a blade sharp, raw, final.Lucien stood across the hotel suite, blood drying on his jaw, his jacket still reeking of smoke and gunpowder. He’d just said it.The word she never expected.“Fiancée.”LOCATION: NEW EDEN – UNMARKED LUXURY SUITETIME: 10:14 a.m.Lucien didn’t blink. “I meant it.”Solene laughed once. It wasn’t pretty. “You mean it like a body means rigor mortis. Too late to matter.”She stalked to the window, gripping the glass with white knuckles. “So what now? You parade me around as your shield? Put a ring on me and dare the boy to pull the trigger?”Lucien: “Exactly.”CUT TO: LUXURY SUITE – BEDROOMLucien followed. Slowly. The space between them snapped with something unsaid grief, heat, need.Lucien: “The Romano deal's collapsing. Bianca’s talking again. Angelo’s bleeding loyalty out his throat and the child’s name is spreading through backchannels like fire.”Solene (turning): “And your sol
Trigger Me Gently CHAPTER 31: MEMORY HUNT
“Did you ever love me?” Solene’s question hung in the haze of smoke and blood.Lucien’s heartbeat thundered beneath his vest. He didn’t answer, couldn’t. Instead, he kissed her, hard and raw, like it was their last gasp of air.INFILTRATION HALLWAY – 3:22 a.m.Solene, pistol still warm, as Lucien closes the gap, his hand steady on the weapon he dropped.Solene’s voice trembled. “If you did say it.”Lucien murmured against her lips. “I’m still here.”They stood, breath mingling, smoke swirling like ghosts. But Lucien’s eyes flicked to the detonator he dropped now silent. Gunfire echoed in the compound’s depths. The child he’d vanished. And the kill-switch? Still active.A burst of gunfire rattles the corridor’s steel doors. The compound’s power shudders, then blinks lights flicker. They move as one.Lucien whispers: “Security’s collapsing.”Solene nods, voice low: “Then we split.”She heads deeper into the compound; he goes left toward the child’s voice echoing in the network, signs of
Trigger Me Gently CHAPTER THIRTY: THE GIRL WHO KILLED GOD
LOCATION: ANGELO’S COMPOUND – PERIMETER TUNNELSTIME: 2:07 a.m.The tunnel was dark.Darker than memory. Darker than the guilt Solene couldn’t kill with knives or sex or names no one used anymore.Lucien’s breath rasped behind her. Close. Protective. Tense.They were twenty feet from the gate.Twelve inches from a legacy they couldn’t walk away from again.“Third sensor’s fried,” she whispered, checking the trip wire. “We go in silent.”Lucien’s hand caught her wrist before she moved.“You sure you want to be her tonight?”Solene turned.> “I already am.”He pulled her into him.Hard.No armor. No warning.SHADOWED ROOM – MOMENTS LATERThey kissed like countdowns.Solene pushed him against the wall, tore open his tactical vest. Her teeth grazed his jaw. Her nails bit through his shirt.Lucien flipped her fast hands sliding down to her thigh holster, pushing the gun aside just to get to her skin.> “We could die tonight,” he rasped.She pulled him down with her.> “Then die inside me.”
