Shattered Vows
Chapter 424 – Shattered VowsRain hissed against the cracked concrete as Gabriel knelt, breath shallow, over the shattered remnants of the communicator. The last link to command—gone. Static buzzed in his earpiece, a dull echo of the world collapsing around him.He wasn’t alone.A shadow moved near the far corridor, silent as a whisper. Gabriel’s fingers tensed around his sidearm, eyes locked on the movement. Every muscle in his body screamed for rest, but rest was for the dead—and he wasn’t ready for that. Not yet.“Come out,” he growled, voice hoarse.Nothing.Then—footsteps.Measured, deliberate. Boots against cement. And then she stepped into the dim light.Talia.Not the Talia he remembered from Caracas. This one was different. Hair slicked back, body armored, rifle slung over her shoulder like a predator with its claws hidden. Her eyes didn’t flinch when they met his.“You shouldn’t have come,” she said.Gabriel rose slowly. “I didn’t have a choice.”Her smirk was bitter. “You n
The Silence Before the Breach
Chapter 423 – The Silence Before the BreachThe storm had passed, but its echo lingered.Inside the temporary command post on the outskirts of Goma, the air was heavy with sweat, sand, and anticipation. Jaxon sat at the edge of the steel table, maps spread before him, the faint hum of the generators underscoring the quiet tension that gripped every soldier in the room.A red dot blinked on the digital tablet beside him—their informant's tracker.“She’s in position,” Mia said, her voice barely above a whisper.Jaxon looked up, his eyes meeting hers. No words were needed between them. The plan was already set—if it was going to work, it had to happen now.The compound where Whisperborne was believed to be hiding wasn’t just another stronghold. It was a fortress, buried under rock and illusion, with technology more advanced than any field op had encountered before. And Whisperborne—whoever, whatever he was—had become more than just a ghost in the system. He was evolving, learning, adapti
Fall of the Vultures
Chapter 422 – Fall of the VulturesThe blast rang out like thunder.Ryder didn’t look back. His boots pounded across the rooftop as the fireball behind him lit the night sky. The old comms station was reduced to rubble, the encrypted servers with it. That was the last backup the Vultures had. Gone.“All units, pull out. Extraction in three,” he barked into the comm, ducking low as bullets cracked overhead.“Negative!” came Sage’s voice. “We’ve got company at the south flank—four SUV units, no tags. Moving like they know us.”Ryder swore under his breath. Of course they weren’t going to go down easy. “Aiden, what's your position?”“Two clicks northeast. Got eyes on the convoy. I'm moving to intercept.”“Do it, but don’t engage unless they open fire. We need to confirm if they’re Vultures or just merc muscle.”Ryder dropped to one knee, scanning the rooftop across from him. The laser sights cut through the dark. Sniper. Top left. He lined up his rifle and took a breath.Crack.The body
The Breach Beneath the Silence
Chapter 421 – The Breach Beneath the SilenceThe silence before the storm had always unnerved Cole, but this—this was different.The corridor beneath the outpost was unnaturally still. No humming generators, no echoing footsteps, just an oppressive quiet that pressed against his eardrums. Even the faint mechanical whirr of his tactical suit seemed too loud.He raised a fist, and the unit behind him froze. Rhea moved beside him, pulse rifle ready. Her expression was tight, wary."Picking up anything?" Cole murmured through the comms.Rhea shook her head. "No heat signatures. No movement. It's dead down here."He hated how she said it—dead. After everything they had seen, death wasn’t always the end. Not anymore.They advanced cautiously, step by step, into the deeper tunnels. The schematics of the facility had shown a storage vault beneath the mountain—old weapons, experimental tech, remnants of the Whisperborne war. The enemy wouldn’t have left this place untouched."Command, this is
Shadows in the Wire
Chapter 420 – Shadows in the WireThe war room buzzed with static and tension. Dimly lit monitors flickered, illuminating Jaxon’s scarred face as he stared at the live feed of their last known location of the traitor: Oberon District—Sector 7.“Bring up the schematics again,” he ordered, voice tight.Zara swiped across the interface. A 3D map of Sector 7 spiraled into view, revealing underground tunnel routes, security checkpoints, and two red blinking signals.“Two power surges detected thirty seconds apart,” Zara muttered. “EMP charges. They're trying to blind us.”Jaxon clenched his jaw. “Which means they’re moving now.”Across the room, Kaito loaded fresh rounds into his pulse rifle. “They’re not just running. They're setting a trap. If this was just an escape, they'd scatter. But they’re drawing us in.”Jaxon nodded. “Good. Let them.”The tension in the room fractured as a junior operator called out, “Signal interference climbing on encrypted channels. They’re piggybacking on our
Smoke in the Mirror
Chapter 419 – Smoke in the MirrorThe sun dipped low, bleeding crimson into the edges of the skyline as the convoy rolled into the outskirts of Reval. Cracked pavement, barbed wire, and abandoned checkpoints greeted them like ghosts of wars past. The air was thick with a grim stillness—unnatural, like the city was holding its breath.Jaxon stepped out of the lead vehicle, boots crunching against shattered glass. Behind him, Ramirez dismounted silently, his eyes scanning the rooftops with a veteran’s paranoia. Their intel said the Omega Cell was nesting here, waiting for a courier carrying black-market biotech stolen from a NATO lab. But something about the silence gnawed at Jaxon’s gut."This doesn’t feel right," Jaxon muttered, pressing a finger to his comm. “Echo Lead to all units. Spread wide. Eyes up. Safety off.”A chorus of affirmatives crackled back.Kiera emerged from the second truck, slinging her rifle over her shoulder. Her face was pale but focused. “The tracker says the p
