ROMAN'S P.O.VI had no time to think about Callie's words as we stepped into the dimly lit hallway The sound of screams increased in tempo, and she shivered beside me. Even Isabella didn't look so good. Fabiano whispered soothing words to herA man stepped out of what we thought was a mirror but was actually a glass door, taking us by surprise. Instinctively, I reached for my holster in my jacket only to find it emptyMy gun had been collected “Here" he says in a robotic modulated voice. The man just like the others, was covered from head to toe in all black. His face was shielded behind a hideous-looking maskCallie peers into the box he stretched forward, her fingers tightening around my biceps “What are those?”The man responded to her with a negative shake of his head, telling us that he too didn't know the contents of the boxA curse slipped past my lips “Give me that" I grunted sharply. Taking the box from him, once the thing was in my hands he pointed down the dark hallway “

CALISTA'S P.O.VEverything else paled in comparison to the sight before meI no longer heard the scary music, and I didn't notice the weird people standing in the gallery above. All I could think of was herMoisture gathered in her eyes and my voice cracked on the edge “Aria”The last time I had seen her, the therapist advised I stay away, that my presence won't be good for her mental development but how is she... here?Her lips wobbled and she struggled against the ropes tying her to the chair. Tears steamed down her beautiful little face making my heart clench hard“Mom?" She looked around frantically, visibly scared “Mom. Are you there?”I didn't think, I acted. One minute I was seated in panic; the next, I was on my feet and making haste towards the stage. I have never known Aria before, but there's just this empathy I have towards her that's unexplainable Even though I knew this was hostile ground and that my life was in danger, I didn't care. I couldn't care, not when Aria has

CALISTA'S P.O.VI was on the stage before Roman or anytime could stop me this timeHer feline smile stretched wider, and pure rage flooded my veins. The kind that piled up till there was nothing to do but unleash it allMemories, hurtful memories assaulted my mind in a split second. How Maria had always maltreated me before and even after my father's death, her affair with the sçum of a man I was supposed to get married to“You” I hissed through my teeth, my fingers balling into a tight fist. Maria let the mask fall from her hand, and the sound of them clattering to the ground echoed ominously She took a step closer to me, her eyes dark and wicked. “Yes. It is me”Aria whimpered in her hold, and my eyes slid towards where Maria was holding Aria by the collar of her dress. Rage pumped my blood hot. “Let her go" I demanded Maris laughed, sounding like a lunatic high on crack. Then she raised her free hand and aimed a gun at me. “Don't. You. Fùcking. Dare” the warning came from behin

ALBERTO'S P.O.VThe bomb explodes in a few minutes, which was the final and last stage of the planIt had been hours since the team and I were underground in this compound, waiting patiently for Roman to give the signal. I watch as he strangles Maria, the sound of her neck cracking echoes through the hallIt was satisfying The past few weeks have taken a toll on my friend and his wife, it was only poetic that he took her life with his hands. Declan gave the order for everyone to move out through the pathway we dug, with the information gotten — beaten— out of Joel, we were able to access the database containing important, information about the members of the X Bròtherhood Funny enough, it had not mentioned the identity of the ‘Brother' which made seeing Maria come as a shock. Even Joel didn't know who the brother wasSpeaking of which “Where's Joel?” I ask Delcan as we gather the unconscious bodies around. Delcan shakes his head, I couldn't hear his voice very well over the gas ma

CALISTA'S P.O.VIt was rainy the day we buried Alberto Two weeks later, and life still felt unreal. Colder, Quieter. The sky was grey, the men were gloomy, Roman was as still as a statue, unshed tears glistened in his eyes as he gave the eulogy “Alberto was my good friend” he began, “He sacrificed his life to see that no one was left behind” Behind me, Lilian broke into renewed tears, the sound coming from a deep place within her.Lucas held her tightly against his chest, cradling her softly. She cried against him and I wanted to go over and hug her tightly, but she was with Lucas, so I wouldn't interrupt their privacy “Are you okay?” Lucas asked softly I could hear Lilian sniffle, her voice weak “I am" A deliberate pause followed “It's not that I still—”“You don't have to explain” Lucas interrupted softly “Someone you cared about is gone, I understand you”My heart melted when I caught him from the corner of my eye placing a kiss on Lilian's cheek. I was glad my friend had some
