Chapter 42: No, NeverThe helicopters descended like shadows that cut through the morning fog. Their blatant approach caused chaos the moment they crossed into enemy airspace. The island's estate below them quickly erupted into motion. Guards sprinted across the open grounds while their voices rung out in frantic shouts. Orders were barked into radios, the sharp clack of weapons being loaded filled the air as men took their positions along the perimeter. Some scrambled to secure the heavy artillery mounted near the gates, while others rushed toward the estate's main entrance, forming a defensive line to prepare for the uninvited guest that seemed hostile.But Valerian was already far ahead before the first rounds were fired.A single, sharp tilt of his head toward Ivan was all it took. No words were needed but Ivan understood immediately. His response was smooth as he followed in perfect sync.The moment the copters reached optimal drop height, the side doors were immediately yanked

Chapter 44: StainedThe first shot hit its mark.Valerian's bullet tore through Adrian's abdomen and the force of impact sent the man staggering backward with a choked grunt. But Valerian didn't stop there. The moment Adrian fired his gun, Valerian responded with lethal precision, squeezing the trigger twice more in rapid succession. One shot buried itself into Adrian's thigh as the other pierced his uninjured shoulder.Adrian let out a guttural, agonized groan as his body collapsed onto the marble floor with a sickening thud. Blood spread quickly beneath him that stained the pristine surface in dark, seeping pools. His body convulsed slightly from the shock. His breath became ragged and uneven. His grip shook as he tried but failed to lift his weapon again. Although his fury remained burning in his amber eyes but it was weakened now as he began drowning beneath the sheer agony wracking his body.Valerian barely spared Adrian another glance. The man was down, incapacitated, bleeding,

Chapter 46: RebelCalix moved through the wreckage while his sharp eyes scanned the injured and the ones he lost. His men were tended to by what few medics they had left. It was a mess. A complete disaster. But it did not piss him off at all.He crouched beside one of his men, a who had taken a rifle butt to the face and was now bleeding from his temple. The man groaned as Calix grabbed his chin, tilting his face up to inspect the damage."Stop whining. You're still breathing," Calix muttered, letting go roughly as he reached for a clean cloth and tossed it at him. "Press that down unless you wanna pass out from blood loss."The man did as he was told, wincing as he applied pressure.Calix stood and turned his attention to another who was nursing a bullet wound in his shoulder. He recognized him as one of the newer recruits, too eager to prove himself, and now paying the price for it."How bad?" Calix asked.The man clenched his jaw. "Went clean through. I'll live.""Damn right, you w

Chapter 48: BloodshotA shudder tore through Noelle. Her entire body trembled as a wave of panic crashed over her. Before she could stop herself, her fingers twisted into the sheets, gripping them so tightly that her knuckles turned white."I—I can't," she rasped, shaking her head frantically. "I can't have this baby."Valerian instantly stiffened as he looked at her in shock. "Noelle..." He said her name quietly, almost cautiously.But she wasn't listening."Take it out," she choked. "I don't care how... just get rid of it. Please."The plea fell from her lips in a frantic rush as her desperation unraveled like a thread pulled too tight. Weak as she was, she still tried to push herself up, her limbs shaking violently from the effort.Dr. James stepped forward to stop her. "Ms. McGrath, I need you to calm down—"But the moment he reached for her, she recoiled as if burned."No!" Noelle gasped and breathing almost hysterically. Her hands flew to her stomach, clutching it, pressing agai

After Valerian left, after the brutal beating that left him battered and barely breathing on the cold floor, he had stopped screaming. Stopped struggling. He just sat there.Time blurred and he didn't know if it had been hours or days. The dim lights never changed, the walls never moved, and the only sound in the room was the faint ringing in his ears. His body ached—his wrists raw, his ribs screaming with every shallow breath—but none of it mattered. Pain was nothing compared to the thoughts clawing through his mind.Noelle and the baby.Sudde
