Howard Stark Agent Carter 소설 & 이야기

“There was one person Maria trusted. Her personal accountant. Carter Reynolds.” Caroline’s stomach twisted. She remembered Carter well. Quiet, reserved, always lingering in the background. The perfect person to keep secrets. “If anyone knows where Sarah is, it’s him,” Caroline said. “We need to find him.” *** Tracking Carter down wasn’t hard. He still operated from his luxury office downtown, pretending nothing had changed. Caroline and Ancelotti walked in, pushing past his secretary without a word. Carter looked up from his desk, his expression turning to panic the moment he saw them.

The communication was broken off and the captain switched back to her backup. "Subject's been compromised. Wait for my signal. I'm going in." With that, the captain advanced towards the door and stood on one side. She waited. If the delivery guy had ratted her out, whoever was inside would make a run for it. Or, maybe his mic was broken but that was highly unlikely, considering where the APD gets most of its gadgets from. Carter Laboratories or CarterLabs for short. The most successful and biggest research facility in all of Georgia, run by none other than Dr. Carter Hall and his partner, Dr. Katherine Patterson.

"Yeah, asshole. You did. If it weren't for Carter, being a universal donor and finding me when he did, I would have died. He brought me back. I might not trust him, but he has earned my respect for performing CPR. He could have let me die so he wouldn't have one less team member to betray. He didn't." "I know. Carter was feeding information on your team, C.H.A.O.S., and the Death Kings to Razor Grothman. Sawyer and Dr. Fuchs-Jamison got him the help he needed. I cannot imagine you guys still fully trusting him, even though it's been five years since then. Your woman Sawyer is something else. She is a fearsome force. Are you and Jensen happy to finally be with her?"

Chapter 13 The Detectives Scarlett’s POV I attempt to mind link my Beta to ask him if we have an ETA as to when the human cops are expected to arrive, but very quickly find that he’s blocking me from interrupting something that I don’t want to be a part of. I just smile and shake my head just as one of my patrols mind links me to let me know that an unmarked police car has turned onto the road between the Crimson Snow Pack and the Midnight River Pack.

And I… I was doing everything I could to hold myself together long enough to help him. I stood in the living room, arms crossed over my chest, staring at the map spread across the table. Hunter hovered over it, eyes sharp, posture rigid, aura coiled and ready. He had been gone most of the day, coming back with a face as dark as a storm. Xavier entered the room, closing the door behind him. For a moment, neither one of them looked at me. That alone told me everything. Something was coming. Something big. Something deadly. I forced myself to break the silence.

Carter After the meeting and knowing that the men who tried to kill me were now having a conversation with the devil, it made me more relieved, but I would only be completely happy when I saw that joint from hell in flames, I never thought about destroying them, even after everything that's happened to me, but if he wants a war, he should know by now that I'm not a man to back down. I'm going to have Hernandes hire more security guards for my house and I want some to stay on my properties. What happened to Dell Grafic cannot happen again, because of that I will lose millions, besides having to lower the price, I will rebuild the company from scratch and it will not be cheap.

Not a moment later, Ethan Hunt brought in a dozen of well-trained sergeants to the front of the stage. Under the horrified gazes of the group of stars, they approached Harvey. Ethan Hunt knew Harvey’s habit. He didn’t speak even after Ethan bowed. Instead, his cold eyes fell on Carter and the celebrities. Apparently, these people would be taken down immediately the moment Harvey gave the order. Army? Were they truly from the army? Carter, who was feeling complacent not too long ago, was now filled with confusion.

Evelyn tried to fight the darkness, tried to memorize faces, license plates, anything. But the world was already slipping away. The van door slammed shut. And Evelyn was gone. The hum of the overhead fluorescent lights filled the silence, sterile and oppressive. Detective Mason stood across the table, arms crossed, eyes locked on the man handcuffed to the steel chair. Niles Carr. Former government agent, he is now retired and also involved in operations too dirty for public record. Carr’s lip was split, and blood clung to the edge of his collar, but his stare was defiant.

“Carter wants us.” Mia scrambled after him but he didn’t shorten his stride. It was better if she stayed behind him. He couldn’t smell her shampoo or body lotion or perfume or whatever it was that triggered those sensory memories and tied him all up in knots. Carter was standing at the head of the conference table and two men stood on either side of it, staring each other down. One of them he recognized—Darius Fucking Carathurs in all his tattooed footballer glory—and the other one looked familiar, but Liam couldn’t place him. Carter looked like the fucking cat who swallowed the canary with his creepy smug smile.

His cedar scent wrapped around me, thick and steady, holding the edge of my nerves in place while the federal team prepared to move. Across the corridor, Jax Miller stood like a stone wall, his broad shoulder pinned against the door frame. Leo Vance stood right in front of him, Jax’s large hand resting over Leo’s hip, keeping him close as federal agents moved through the rooms. The air in the hallway felt charged, every person waiting for the same signal. The heavy steel doors at the end of the hall swung open with a loud thud. Agent Carter walked through the entrance, holding a stack of signed federal arrest warrants in her gloved hands. Water dripped from the hem of her dark coat onto the
