The man’s heavy ceramic chest plate cracked under the sheer mass of Julian’s assault, sending him flying backward into the muddy turf. Julian didn't break stride, pivoting instantly to intercept the second operative, wrenching the assault rifle from the man's grip and using the butt of the weapon to drive him violently into the ground. Maya provided overwatch from the ditch, her suppressing fire keeping the remaining two mercenaries pinned behind the rear wheels of the carrier. Every shot she fired was deli

No matter how much I twisted against the concrete, I couldn't dodge their heavy hands as they began searching my vest for hidden tracking devices.

What do you think?"

This was my first true test as a leader and my decision would define how I ruled. Could I balance justice and mercy and political necessity without losing myself in the process and could I make choices that served the greater good even when they hurt? I looked at Marcus and saw the pain driving his demand for vengeance. I looked at Alpha Rhys and saw genuine remorse mixed with fear. I looked at Luna Sheila and saw a woman fighting for her mate's life. "Marcus you have waited decades for justice," I said carefully. "I understand that pain and I share it because she was my mother. But we have a bigger enemy right now that threatens all of us."

Justice, for some, felt like mercy for the lives lost. Then came Kendrick’s former Beta, and four elite warriors who had led the flanks of the ambush. They were sentenced without a word of protest. They had spilled innocent blood, and now their own painted the sacred stones. When it was over, Elder Malric turned to André. “Alpha André of the Silver Lake Pack,” he said. “You held the line. You protected the old ways. And you showed restraint when others would have answered with vengeance. You have had your own share with blood but they were justified, let's put everything else behind and not go after innocent people who had nothing to do with this war." the councilman said.

" we haven't heard anything about your families and friends , And you have been reported missing for quite sometime ...." Loveth cuts him off quickly " I am an orphan and I happened to be sold to a mercenary by my foster father . So kindly move on to something else. I no longer have business with my past ." Loveth crossed her legs as she waited for the next question even though she knew she had given too much information to the public and right now a part of her solemnly regretted it but it was too late already . " So lastly we hope you will honour our invitation next time ."

“I already sent you the photos. Are you saying they’re fake? “We, the Stormbringer Mercenaries are one of the top international mercenary groups. Since we received your money, we obviously will carry out our mission. “So, Miss Jones, you do not need to doubt us. Especially since you should have received the news, right?” “Yes, I did receive news of Kace’s murder. Mr. Stormbringer, thank you for your help.” Stormbringer laughed. “All we have is a business relationship. The Stormbringer Mercenaries won’t help for nothing. You understand what I’m saying, Miss Jones?” Juliet immediately said, “Yes, of course, Mr. Stormbringer. I’ll transfer the rest of the money to you right now.”

“Listen to me, okay? What happened back then, whatever you remember or think you remember, none of it was your fault. You were a little kid. You didn’t do anything wrong.” “But Miles—” “Miles made a mistake,” I say carefully. “A really big mistake. But that was his mistake, not yours. Not mine. Not Mara’s. His.” Jonah looks down at his drawing again, his finger still tracing those dark lines. “Do you think about it a lot?” I ask gently. Another shrug.

Anger and revenge engulfed these two mercenaries' hearts. The two men, after all, are the female mercenary old co-workers. They used to be in the same squad, sent to the same areas of war. Merely exist as the government tools of war, they quit and live as mercenaries to gain freedom. Still, they are sent to secure a weak woman that was asleep under the desk.

With a smile, hiding all storm of thoughts going on in my head, I gave my first response, “Justice shall be served.” That did nothing because I could still see the hunter for justice lingering in his eyes. “But true justice is not in revenge or cruelty. It is in balance and in mercy when it is deserved,” I added, my voice steady despite his hard my heart hammered in my chest. I noticed my fingers were trembling, so I held them together , taking a deep breath. “You speak of mercy—undeserving of the wolves who killed you! The wolves who brought war to our gates! You’re a traitor!” He yelled. My heart sank at his words. I felt my confidence recoil the moment he growled.

Otherwise, don't blame me for what happens next. Their laughter cut straight into me, sharp and merciless. All I felt was utter humiliation and pain. I sat alone outside the courthouse, consumed by a despair I had never known before. Weren't courts meant to stand for fairness and justice? Why had they become a sanctuary for the powerful?

They clattered against the stone steps before tumbling all the way down.
