he said. The red light on the device began blinking faster. Axel swore under his breath. “This is not standard,” Axel said. “This is remote-triggered.” Ruin’s grip tightened around Marcus’ throat. “Who has the detonator?” Ruin demanded. Marcus smiled through blood. “Closer than you think.” The red light turned solid. Axel froze. “That means it is armed,” he said. Ruin released Marcus and turned toward me. For the first time since I met him, I saw something raw in his eyes. Fear, not for himself but for me.

Black sedans. Armed teams. “Looks like we’re very popular tonight,” Lena said. Alina felt the pressure closing in from every direction. “So we’ve got assassins coming from the ground…” She pointed toward the skyline. “…and a sniper who never misses watching from above.” Arun’s voice remained calm. “Correct.” She folded her arms. “Just checking.” He turned the tablet toward her. “Look closer.” Alina studied the screen. Something didn’t add up. The sniper marker was not moving.

Arka raised his arms, locking Bima in place by resting both palms firmly on the wooden rack on either side of Bima’s head. "Look at me, Bim," Arka whispered. Bima looked up. In the dim, amber light of the storage room, Arka’s eyes glinted with a lethal intensity. Bima’s claustrophobic panic over the cramped space suddenly shifted into a completely different kind of panic—something much hotter, throbbing deep in his gut.

I banged on the force on the door earning a growl from Orion as he got brushed by several people that had come with them. Sarin emerged out from a dressing screen and Blair went in, "We didn't see a point to it. If we'd died Blake would know and tell you. It was some ploy to get us to answer and we weren't going to have it." He sat down in an armchair. He was now dressed militarily with more adornments than that of Adrian and Mazie. When Blair emerged she to was similarly with no long sleeves but armbands with tassels and metal hanging at the ends of them.

Presenting his sigil, he gained swift access and descended into the depths, making his way toward Slayde's shop. Upon arrival, he found a young merman engrossed in examining a new garden tank. As he waited for the merchant's attention, Trent used the time to browse the array of laserarms on display. The absence of Slayde, presumably off shift, gave Trent the opportunity to closely inspect the various options available. He settled on a moderately sized laserarm, intrigued by its design, particularly the accurate scope and the fingerprint readers embedded on the grip – a security measure ensuring only he or his bondmate could operate it. Trent glanced around, hoping to find a firing tester to

Then I see someone running upstairs, dressed in white—a colour I now associate with someone who’s probably not going to make it. Blake’s arm stays around my waist as we walk, his fingers attempting to trace along my body but failing because of the overalls. “Can’t feel anything, right?” I ask, peering up at him.

Donald gritted his teeth and stood between Palmer's gun and Arman “Lower your fucking gun Palmer!” Palmer's eyes had a glint of madness. He was hungry for blood, and it didn't matter who's blood it was “Move Donnie boy, you don't want to get caught in the crossfire” Arman lowered his gun. “Call me when you two have sorted out your administrative issues, the we'll have a proper fight” Arman said as he walked past the other men and towards the door “This isn't over, this—”

I reacted instantly, struggling, heart racing, until a voice cut through. “Easy. Easy. It’s me.” I turned sharply. Blinky stood there, hands raised, breathing hard. “What’s going on?” I demanded. He rubbed his face, eyes darting around nervously. “Gunshots, man. Shots everywhere. People panicked.” My brain struggled to process it. “Gunshots?” I repeated. “Oh my God…” I turned immediately to rush back in. “Hold on!” he snapped, grabbing my arm. “Where the fuck are you going?

Hilda asked. “I gave them new rifles,” Aron said simply. “They’re in the next room.” Then he handed her a hair clip. Its intricate design caught her off guard. Without hesitation, she accepted it. “We don’t know what will happen during the mission. And I know you won’t kill anyone, no matter the situation.” Hilda blinked at him, startled.
