I keep my right eye pressed tight against the rubber cup of my thermal sniper scope, scanning the dark interior through the dirty glass skylights.The digital display bathes my vision in a sea of cold blues and dark purples, highlighting the freezing ambient temperature of the abandoned factory.Down below, two familiar glowing red heat signatures move side-by-side through the massive processing floor.My chest tightens with a fierce, possessive ache as I watch my oldest brother and our beautiful King navigate the dark maze together.I should be down there walking right beside them on that broken concrete, stepping between our mate and any potential danger hiding in the shadows.I should be shielding Beau with my own body, but my specialized skills are needed up here to keep the perimeter clear."I have the perimeter cameras looped, so nobody is sneaking up behind you," Dean murmurs through the encrypted earpiece.His calm tone anchors me, reminding me that all three of my mates are w

"The ground floor is clear," he answered from the safety of the parked SUV. "But the thermal map for the basement is incredibly distorted because of the thick insulation.""I cannot give you an accurate headcount down there, so you need to expect a wall of guns when those doors open.""We are ready, this shit is getting long already," Seth rumbles, shifting his grip on his rifle as he stands shoulder-to-shoulder with Rhett.I reach out and wrap my fingers around the cold iron lever, taking one final breath before I pull it downward.The massive gears situated far above us scream in protest, grinding against decades of rust and neglect.The sound is deafening, vibrating straight into my bones as the carriage jerks violently.The sudden motion nearly knocks me off my bare feet, but Rhett catches my waist to steady me before we slowly begin to descend into the pitch-black shaft.The small emergency bulb flickering on the ceiling provides the only illumination, casting long, distorted sha

He looks around the empty room, looking incredibly pleased with his deadly trap.We will all be buried alive if that ceiling comes down."You would die alongside us," Beau points out, keeping his silver pistol aimed steadily at the man's head."I am a loyal soldier," the man replies smoothly, tapping his chest right over his heart."I am perfectly willing to sacrifice my life to ensure the Rossi cartel takes this city, because my family will be rewarded for generations."The sheer fanaticism in his eyes confirms he is not bluffing about his willingness to die for his boss.He genuinely believes he holds all the winning cards in this scenario."So here is how this is going to work," the envoy says, leaning forward to rest his forearms on his knees again."Vincent knows you would never let Daniel freeze to death without trying to save him."He points a finger directly at Beau."You are going to pull those blank territory transfer papers out of your pocket, Beau, and you are going to sig

"Rossi is locked inside a reinforced clean-room at the back of the vault, and he has Daniel," Rhett reports, his boots thudding softly as he approaches the blast doors."I know," I confirm, watching the digital layout pulse on my screen. "I am looking at the architectural overlay at this exact moment.""Can you open it?" Seth asks, his words tight with restrained violence."I am fighting the encryption firewalls as fast as I can, but Rossi hired some competent security," I explain, swiping a line of useless code off the monitor."The electronic lock is isolated, so I have to trick the mainframe into believing I am the primary administrator.""Work fast, Dean," Beau urges, his quiet desperation bleeding clearly through the radio link. "We cannot afford to let Vincent realize his decoy envoy is dead."I double my typing speed, my knuckles turning white as my fingers dance across the glass screen.The digital lock guarding the clean-room is buried beneath multiple layers of false directo

Vincent Rossi grins through the reinforced glass, his fingers resting casually on the release valve of the chemical canister.Beau lets out a gutted sob and slams his fists against the window again.I cannot take it.Hearing my mate cry like that rips my chest wide open and fuels a dark, violent fire in my blood."He is going to do it," Beau chokes out, pressing his forehead against the cold steel door. "Rhett, please, he is going to open it.""Dean, tell me you have something," Rhett barks into his collar microphone, keeping his rifle trained on the bulletproof glass even though it will not do any good.Static crackles in my earpiece before our brother responds."I am locked out, and I cannot bypass the analog seal from the network," Dean says, and the raw panic in his tone makes my stomach drop. "You have sixty seconds before that gas fills the room."Rossi taps the valve, raising his eyebrows at Beau in a silent, mocking question.The cartel boss knows we are trapped on the wrong s
