Latest Chapter
The Equalizer
Colt clamped his thick hands around the collar of Chase's heavy military parka. He dragged the crippled billionaire across the icy concrete of the Grand Civic Concourse. Chase screamed in agony and clawed at the young thug's wrists. The shattered bone in his thigh grated violently with every rough pull."Get your hands off me," Chase demanded through clenched teeth. He spit a mouthful of dark blood onto the floor. "Do you have any idea who I am?""You are dead weight," Colt laughed loud enough for the camp to hear. He yanked the collar harder and choked off the billionaire's next threat.Darius walked a few paces ahead. He maintained a tight and ruthless grip on Lucy's hair. She stumbled behind him and desperately tried to keep her balance in the dark. Her pristine white thermal coat offered zero protection against the brutal physical force of the gang leader."Please let me go," Lucy begged him. Tears froze into solid trails on her pale cheeks. "We have credits. We can pay you whatev
Your Mission
Captain Vega shoved the captured gang leader through the heavy steel door of the command center. Darius stumbled across the heated floor and fell to his knees in front of a massive oak desk. Rex Lawson sat in a leather chair and slowly stirred a cup of steaming black coffee. He did not look like a man who just survived a perimeter breach."You used chemical ice on military grade titanium," Rex stated. He took a sip of his coffee and shook his head in pure disgust. "You thought you could freeze a blast door designed to withstand a direct missile strike."Garret scrambled into the room behind Darius and kept his hands raised in surrender. "I calculated the thermal fracture points. The alloy was just too thick.""You are an absolute fool," Rex told the trembling explosives expert. "I watched you fumble with your glass tubes on the security feed for twenty minutes. If my agricultural director had not opened the outer airlock manually you would have frozen to death in the snow."Darius rub
Plastic Gun
Darius stepped over the titanium threshold and pulled the freezing air of the plaza in with him. The heavy metal doors hissed shut behind the five men and severed them from the howling blizzard outside. A wall of intense heat hit them instantly. The sudden temperature shift felt like a physical blow to their frozen chests.Garret dropped to his knees and gasped for breath. His lungs expanded rapidly as the warm air thawed his rigid muscles. Colt leaned against the steel wall and closed his eyes in sudden relief. The brutal cold of the dead city vanished in a matter of seconds. The warmth washed over their skin and delivered a deeply pleasurable sensation.Chloe stood in the center of the brightly lit decontamination chamber and clutched a digital clipboard to her chest. She stared at the armed men invading her workspace. She did not scream or run for the inner doors."You actually made it inside," Chloe said. Her voice remained steady and calm."We cracked the vault," Darius smirked.
Silent Infiltration
Darius pressed his back against the frozen concrete wall of the transit tunnel. He raised a gloved hand to halt the four men walking behind him. The massive titanium gates of Oakwood Drive stood fifty yards ahead."Stop right here," Darius whispered into the dark. "The perimeter cameras sweep the main approach every sixty seconds. We move on the blind spots."Garret dropped his heavy canvas bag onto the crushed ice. The explosives expert looked at the towering metal wall and shook his head."That is military grade titanium," Garret whispered back. "I hope you brought more than a crowbar to pry it open.""That is why I brought you," Darius answered coldly. "You promised me a silent entry. If you wake the mercenaries sleeping behind that wall they will shoot us to pieces before we can blink.""I can bypass the lock," Garret said. "I just need time and silence."Colt rubbed his arms and stomped his boots on the concrete. "It is freezing out here. My hands are completely numb. We cannot s
The Meat Shield Strategy
Darius stood over the bleeding corpse and kicked the scavenged pistol across the concrete floor. The sudden gunshot still echoed through the dark transit hub. Mayor Dexter and Agent Paulo sat on frozen shipping crates near the center of the plaza. They stared at the dead man leaking blood over the silver ration blocks. The execution cemented a brutal change in leadership."He talked too much," Darius stated plainly. "Loud men get people killed."Mayor Dexter pulled his thin coat tighter against the freezing wind. "You just shot our only bargaining chip. The dead man owned the girl with the federal tablet.""I own the girl now," Darius corrected the politician. "The transit hub belongs to me. We need to discuss the real problem."Agent Paulo leaned forward and rested his elbows on his knees. "The problem is Oakwood Drive. The director has automated plasma turrets and reinforced titanium blast doors.""Direct assault is suicide," Dexter agreed. "I watched my best federal officers turn t
The Price of a Partner
Mark sat in the frozen slush outside the massive titanium gates. He clawed at the ruined beef scattered across the ice and shoved the dirty meat into his mouth. The bitter blizzard chewed at his exposed skin while cold tears froze on his cheeks."I will not die out here," Mark muttered through a mouthful of frozen soil. "You will not beat me."Spite fueled his empty veins. The raw calories from the trampled food hit his stomach and provided a sudden surge of feral energy. He pushed himself off the concrete and staggered away from the towering fortress.He dragged his freezing body through the deep snowdrifts covering the street. He navigated the dark transit tunnels leading back to the Grand Civic Concourse. The civilian camp remained a chaotic graveyard of starving people and canvas tents. The heavy stench of unwashed bodies filled the enclosed air. Shadows danced along the concrete walls from the dying campfires.Mark ignored the desperate pleas of the beggars reaching out to him. H
