So we gave them permission. After leaving the club, we returned to the penthouse via the standard path. We ensured that they had a gap. Then? We waited. It was quick. A black SUV cut us off at an intersection. Gunfire exploded in the night. Five men. Armed. Coming straight for us.

I gotta tell ’em . “Look, I know you guys are pissed at me,” began Curtis. “Shit! What the fuck?” At Roo’s words, Curtis looked toward the road. Roo hit the brakes and they all lurched forward in their seats. Five hundred yards in front of them, Bernstein’s Escalade lay on its side. Smoke, illuminated by the headlights of the Major’s stopped car, billowed out of the ruined truck. “What happened?” asked Gallow. “We’ve made it to the wildlife preserve,” shouted Curtis. “No lights, no witnesses.

Then its attention snapped up the hill in the opposite direction of where we just rolled from, as if it could hear what I couldn’t, making almost all of its weight painfully shift onto my left arm. I used this moment to buck my hips and toss it off me, quickly rolling to my stomach and staggering to my feet, coughing up the blood working to drown me and spitting it out. I refused to break eye contact as I pulled my club from my bag.

The ambushers were gone, fleeingg as quickly as they had descended. Matteo cursed under his breath as he steadiedhe wheel. “They’re pulling back.” I lowered my gun, the metal still hot in my hand. My pulse thudded in my ear. Beside me, Ava gagged, pressing both her hands against her lips. Her knuckles were white; her eyes were wide open with shock.

A hidden snare snapped upward from the earth. Rylan reacted instantly, twisting his body midair as the rope yanked him toward the trees. His claws sliced through the rope before it could tighten around his neck. He landed hard beside us. “Damn it,” he growled. Marcus roared in my chest. ‘Ambush.’ The forest erupted with movement. Shadows burst from the trees around us. Rogues, corrupted ones. Their eyes glowed an unnatural crimson in the darkness. There were at least twelve of them. Maybe more.

Lex shouted and I could feel myself slipping into the darkness, the last thing I remember seeing was Blake running towards me and then there was nothing. Nothing but the peaceful darkness.

Maren watched the disaster unfold in total horror, knowing that any public violence would destroy the delicate legal defense Colm had built for the custody hearing. "Gwen stop right now, we need to get the baby away from this crowd!" Maren shouted over the noise as the infant began to cry inside the carrier. She backed toward the armored vehicle while trying to shield the child from the growing commotion. Near the edge of the sidewalk, a young bystander held his smartphone high in the air, recording every single second of the explosive fight with a wide grin. He angled the camera lens to capture Maren holding the baby carrier right alongside Gwen standing over the famous socialite.

He paused, making me aware that it was the kind of silence that meant an incoming sad news. “Unfortunately, we did. We walked right into an ambush,” he said “We suffered some casualties,” He continued after stuttering silently, his voice worn out of strength. “The driver and the assistant I took with me lost their lives. The ambush was unexpected and they were just too much. I tried my best to protect them but I couldn't,” his voice faded like a whisper as he inhaled deeply. The pain in Rex's tone was infectious. I felt it jolt up the hairs on my skin like a shockwave.

Letting the tears fall down her face, Alex pulled the trigger, watching through her scope the bullet plunging directly at Julia’s heart and exiting through the back, eliminating the man, who has a gun at her head, as well. Grabbing her phone, Alex went through her phone contacts and finally pressed the call button and waited for the person to answer. She hissed at the pain her wounds are giving her and she went back to her room, reaching for a loose shirt and shorts.
