"Emma orchestrated this," I said to Damian. "She wanted us both dead."
"Tell me later," Damian replied, already pulling me toward the nearest exit. "Move, Aria. Now."
We ran through the gardens, Damian's enhanced speed helping us outpace pursuit. Behind us, I could hear shouting, more gunfire, the chaos of a situation completely out of control.
