El Tigre Silencioso Novels & Stories

The shame is immediately hotter than the fear. I clench my fists, straightening my spine and forcing my feet into the dirt. “Not a chance, enforcer. I don't run from paper tigers.” I slide into my own stance, the one Kael beat into me, my feet sinking slightly into the soft earth, eyes locked on hers.

He was huddled at the stern, his silver arm gleaming with a dull, sickly orange light in the reflected glow of the clouds. He wasn’t looking at me, nor was he looking at the approaching ruins. He was staring at the deck, his fingers tracing the invisible lines of the resonance patterns with a scholar’s obsession. Even as a prisoner, he could not stop analyzing the mechanics of his own defeat.

Wife… Malcolm sighed, it seemed he was getting too used to the term—and he seemed to love it. Just then, his phone rang and at the sight of the caller’s ID, he quickly signaled the whipping to stop. He ordered that Yolanda be gagged to avoid making a noise, soon, the noise-filled tunnel was as silent as a graveyard.

Anyone who mastered it would eventually become a level nine fighter, and Richie was the most adept practitioner of the Stealth Tiger since its inception.
