Everyone was shocked—stunned in terror. Even Congressman Copper’s smirk vanished as he gaped at the senator gassing in pain.

Victoria stood there, her chest rising and falling, as she left the fuck standing on the eyeball. Her hand trembled, but her eyes blazed with fury.

“You don’t talk about my daughter like that, you pedophile!” she roared.

"AHHHHHH!" The senator clutched his face, the fork still embedded in his eye. Blood poured between his fingers as he stumbled back, knocking over bottles and glasses. His screams filled the room like the wail of a dying animal.

Copper’s face twisted with rage. His chair screeched against the marble floor as he shot to his feet.

Smack!

His boot slammed into Victoria’s stomach, sending her crashing into the floor. She gasped, pain ripping through her ribs.

"You slut!" Copper snarled. "What have you done?!"

The injured senator howled, Then Copper’s hand on the fork as he gripped it With one final pull—

Schlkk!

His eyeball came out with it.

A thick, wet pop echoed through the room. Blood and viscous fluid splattered across the table, staining the imported marble.

"My eye!" he shrieked, collapsing to his knees. "Oh God—my eye! KILL HER! KILL THIS BITCH!"

The other men shot up, chairs toppling over in their haste. Some reached for their belts, others grabbed nearby bottles, their faces contorted in rage.

Copper, shaking with fury, turned to Victoria.

"Look at what you've done, whore!" he bellowed.

"Yeah!" one of the men echoed. "She has to pay for this!"

"Strip naked," Copper commanded, his voice laced with venom.

A sickening silence settled over the room.

Victoria lay on the floor, her ribs aching, her mind racing. She looked up at the circle of monsters, at the blood-covered senator.

Copper’s fury boiled over as he stormed toward Victoria.

“I said strip naked!” he barked.

But Victoria couldn’t do it and Wouldn’t do it.

Smack! Smack!

His boot slammed into her stomach again, harder this time. She choked on a gasp, curling in on herself as pain tore through her ribs.

“I will fucking kill you and your daughter!” Copper roared, kicking her again.

Smack! Smack!

The blows kept coming, each one more brutal than the last. Blood pooled in Victoria’s mouth, the metallic taste thick on her tongue. But she refused to break.

Then, suddenly.

Shrrkk!

Victoria’s teeth sank into Copper’s leg.

"AHHH!" he bellowed, stumbling back. His rage flared like a wildfire, his face contorting in fury.

"You bitch!" He wiped at his bleeding leg, panting. "That's it! I have had enough!"

Reaching into his coat, he pulled out a gun and aimed it at her head.

“Go to hell and fuck with the angels.”

Bang!

Copper grinned, waiting for blood to spill.

But nothing.

Victoria wasn’t there.

His smirk faltered. He frowned, scanning the room.

Something had moved her. Something fast.

Then, he swiftly turned beside him, and saw what moved her. Actually, who moved her. The man had Shield Victoria, and covered her with his whole body.

"Who the fuck is this?!" he growled.

Victoria lay limp in the man’s arms, her body broken, her face covered in blood. Her mouth was swollen from the brutal beating, and her vision blurred with pain. Everything at first shone too brightly, making it impossible to see who was holding her.

Then, slowly, the image sharpened and everything came into shape.

Her breath hitched.

Stiles?.

Victoria scoffed weakly, a bitter smile ghosting her lips. Even in my dying moments, I see him, she thought. It had to be a hallucination. A mere imagination.

She had dreamt of him every day for the past six years. She had missed him so much it ached, but she believed he wasn’t here. He couldn’t be.

“I’m here.” The voice was deep, filled with emotion.

"Babe, I’m here."

Victoria’s frown deepened. Her trembling fingers reached up, brushing against his face. He was warm. Solid. Real. she traced every part of his face.

It’s him, he's real. he is back!!!.

she thought to herself.

"It’s you," she said. her fingers curling around his jaw.

“Yeah, it’s me. It’s me, Stiles.” His voice cracked, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry I came late. I’m sorry I let you suffer all this while. I—I should die for that.”

Victoria sniffled, her chest tightening.

"Lord," she rasped, "I’m so happy I’m seeing you before I die. And our girl… She’ll be able to see her father now."

Her words hit Stiles like a hammer to the chest. His grip on her tightened, his jaw clenching as he saw the state she was in. Blood clogged in her chest, her breathing shallo and She was on the brink of death.

No, he wouldn’t let this happen.

“I’m here,” Stiles murmured, his voice filled with quiet fury. His eyes burned with a promise. “And you’re not going to die.”

“Who the hell did this to you?”

    Sandra and Clara had the audacity to immediately double crossed Stiles and Victoria. "you think you can assault me and just go. haha.... foolish man, I will teach you a lesson today", sandra shouted, then instantly called for the security. "gauurrrds!". Stiles was immediately surrounded by four men, each gripping a baton with heavy intent. Sandra screamed, “Where were you when this unknown piece of shit entered? Beat him to a pulp now!”. The guards grinned, cracking their knuckles. Victoria’s breath hitched as she gripped Stiles' arm tightly. The first guard lunged forward. Stiles moved like lightning—his palm striking the man's throat in a swift snap. A disturbing crack followed, and the man stumbled back, clutching his neck, wheezing violently as he dropped to his knees, coughing so hard it echoed through the lobby. The second tried to be smarter, approaching from the side with a low swing, but Stiles ducked, twisted, and delivered a brutal kick straight to the man’s ankle.

    Meanwhile, back at the hospital, the doors burst open. Stiles stormed in. One of the soldiers spotted him instantly and rushed over. “Sir! Sir—”. “Where is my wife?” Stiles snapped. The soldier froze, words catching in his throat. “She... she just left, sir.” “In her condition?!” Stiles growled, grabbing the man by the collar. “She shouldn’t be moving around, let alone leaving the damn hospital!” “I-I tried to stop her!” the soldier stammered. “She insisted... sir, she was determined. I didn’t dare stop her—she said it was urgent!” Stiles clenched his jaw, releasing him with a shove. “Where did she go?” “We’ve already informed headquarters. They're tracking her now.” “Good. Tell them to send me her location. Right now.” “Y-yes, sir!” the soldier scrambled to call it in as Stiles turned and stormed out. --- At the Elliot mansion...

    Victoria started to get up. She threw the covers off and swung her legs over the edge of the bed. The doctor watched her fumbling through the cabinet beside her bed, searching for her dress. “Ma’am!” she gasped, rushing over. “What are you doing?! You can’t leave—” “I’m going to get the drug,” Victoria said firmly, slipping one arm into her dress. “I don’t have time to lie here and wait.” “But you’re still injured! You’re not cleared—” Victoria cut her off with a sharp glance. “If I don’t go, Amelia loses her limbs forever. Do you understand that?” She shoved past the doctor, half-dressed,. Her steps were slow, limping, and painful—but they were hers. She reached the hospital entrance, only to be stopped by a soldier stationed at the door. “Ma’am, I’m sorry, but you’re not permitted to leave yet—” Victoria raised a hand. “Don’t worry about me. Leave me alone.” “But, let me escort you...". “Who are you, and what make you think you can stop me” she said coldly, and the steel

    Victoria jolted awake, A sharp beep echoed in her ears—the heart monitor. The room spun, sterile white walls and soft fluorescent lights above her. She was hooked to several IVs, her hand trembling as she tried to yank them out. "Amelia!" she screamed, her voice hoarse. "Amelia, where is she?!". The door burst open. Two doctors and a nurse rushed in, urgency in their steps. "Ma’am, please!" one doctor said, gently pushing her back onto the bed. "You need to lie down. You’re still not stable." "I don’t need rest!" she cried, trying to push past the weakness weighing down her limbs. "Where is my daughter?! Tell me where Amelia is!" "She’s safe," the second doctor said quickly. "She’s doing good at the moment. She’s in our pediatric wing under tight protection. You’re the one in critical need of care. You’ve got three fractured ribs, a broken arm, internal bleeding… You’ve been through hell. You need to rest." Victoria’s body trembled, and she tried again to get up—but this ti

Stiles didn’t flinch. He stepped forward, his gaze cold."Who the hell do you think you are, letting your scum of a son captivate my wife?.That bastard locked her up, tortured her, and paraded her here like a damn trophy."His jaw clenched."I should’ve killed him. And guess what? I still might."Mr. Howard’s smile dropped. His brows furrowed, and his lips tightened. That was enough for him."Then you are not leaving here alive," he said, voice deathly calm.
