CHAPTER 50
SUBJECT ZEROThe ruined hallway fell into complete silence after the Directorate operative spoke.You were never supposed to survive infancy.For a brief moment, even the chaos throughout the mansion seemed distant again. The crackling sparks from broken electrical wires, the drifting smoke, the distant screams downstairs, all of it faded behind the sudden pounding inside Raymond’s chest.Subject Zero.The words echoed repeatedly through his mind.Interesting.Very interesting.Fragments of memories began flashing violently behind his eyes again.Cold laboratory walls.Machines.Bright surgical lights.Pain.Then screaming.Not his.Other children.Raymond’s golden eyes flickered sharply as his breathing slowed unnaturally.Morgan noticed immediately.“Raymond,” she said carefully, “listen to me.”But Raymond’s gaze remained locked onto the Directorate operative.“What did you mean by that?”The operative slowly stepped forward through the destroyed corridor, completely unafraid despi
CHAPTER 49
THE AWAKENINGThe explosion tore through the second floor like a violent storm.Walls shattered.Glass exploded outward across the mansion grounds.The shockwave blasted through the corridor with terrifying force, throwing guards, agents, and debris in every direction while the entire estate trembled violently beneath the impact.For several secondsNobody could see anything.Dust and smoke swallowed the hallway completely.Screams echoed from below while alarms sparked and died throughout the building.Then silence slowly began creeping back in.Heavy.Uneasy.Unnatural.One of the surviving federal agents coughed painfully while trying to lift himself from the broken floor.“Did… did they get him?”Morgan shoved broken debris aside immediately, her face tense as she stared toward the center of the destroyed corridor.The suppressor blast should have destroyed Raymond’s nervous system instantly.At minimumIt should have incapacitated him.But deep down, something told her the situat
CHAPTER 48
THE ARRIVALThe entire mansion trembled again as the deep mechanical sound echoed upward from the lower floors. Without electricity, the estate had fallen into near-total darkness except for faint moonlight filtering through broken windows and the occasional red emergency backup light flickering weakly through the corridors.But despite the darknessEveryone in the hallway felt it.A presence.Heavy.Oppressive.Different from the Black Serpent operatives.Different from Kael.Even Lucien’s calm expression had changed slightly after hearing that sound.Interesting.Very interesting.Raymond noticed it immediately.Fear.Not obvious.Not dramatic.But present.And if someone like Lucien could feel fear…Then whatever had arrived below was far more dangerous than anything tonight had shown so far.Morgan stepped forward immediately.“What did you do?” she demanded coldly.Lucien slowly shook his head.“This wasn’t us.”Kael’s silver eyes narrowed sharply as he glanced toward the stairwe
CHAPTER 47
THE CREATIONThe ruined corridor fell into complete silence after Lucien spoke those words.The people who created you.For a brief moment, even the chaos throughout the mansion seemed distant. The flashing emergency lights painted dark red shadows across the shattered walls while smoke drifted slowly through the hallway, but Raymond barely noticed any of it anymore.His golden eyes remained fixed on Lucien.Cold.Sharp.Dangerous.“What did you just say?” Raymond asked quietly.Lucien’s faint smile remained unchanged.Interesting.Very interesting.Unlike the confusion or fear most people showed after learning pieces of the truth tonight, Raymond’s reaction was different. Beneath the calmness in his voice, Lucien could already feel the shift happening inside him.The awakening was progressing faster than expected.Kael noticed it too.The silver-eyed man slowly stepped back, no longer attacking immediately. Instead, he observed Raymond carefully, almost like a hunter studying somethi
CHAPTER 46
THE MAN IN THE DARKDarkness swallowed the corridor completely after the lights exploded. The only illumination left came from the distant emergency lights flickering red through parts of the mansion, casting distorted shadows across the shattered hallway walls. Gunfire continued erupting from different directions while guards and agents shouted over one another in confusion.But amid all the chaosRaymond focused on only one thing.The presence was moving toward him through the darkness.Fast.Cold.Dangerous.His sharpened senses immediately locked onto it.Unlike the masked attackers from earlier, this person moved with terrifying control. Every step was precise, almost silent despite the destruction surrounding them.Interesting.Very interesting.Raymond’s pupils glowed faintly gold again as the strange energy within his body surged harder than before. The pressure inside his veins intensified rapidly, spreading through his muscles and senses until even the chaotic battlefield ar
CHAPTER 45
THE BREACHThe moment the screams echoed through the mansion corridors, the atmosphere inside the room instantly turned deadly. The faint calm that had existed moments earlier disappeared completely as gunshots erupted downstairs one after another.Bang! Bang! Bang!Shouts from guards mixed with the sound of breaking glass and running footsteps, creating chaos throughout the estate once again. Smoke from the earlier explosion outside had already begun drifting into parts of the mansion, making the situation feel even more suffocating.Agent Morgan reacted immediately.“Stay inside this room,” she ordered Isabella sharply while reaching beneath her coat and drawing a compact black handgun.Several federal agents outside the hallway instantly moved into defensive positions.But Raymond had already started walking toward the door.Morgan’s expression changed.“Where are you going?”Raymond’s gaze remained calm.“To meet them.”Morgan immediately grabbed his arm.“Don’t be reckless.
