CHAPTER 61 PART 2
"The senator wanted to make sure we caught whoever tried to kill his boy. So we cleared the floor, made it look abandoned, and waited." The leader's smile was cold. "And here you are. Walking right into it like a dumb fuck."The other men chuckled, their grips tightening on their weapons."You should have stayed in whatever hole you crawled out of," another man growled. "Now we're gonna make you regret ever touching the senator's son.""We're gonna break every bone in your body," a third added. "Make you wish you'd died in that prison break.""Then we're gonna drag what's left of you to the senator so he can finish the job personally."Alejandro stood perfectly still, his hands relaxed at his sides, his breathing calm. Two years ago, this situation would have terrified him. Surrounded, outnumbered, armed men ready to tear him apart—he would have begged, pleaded, offered money he didn't have.But he wasn't that Alejandro anymore."You're making a mistake," he said quietly.The leader l
Chapter 61 PART 1
Alejandro couldn't sleep. He paced his apartment—a modest place in a quiet neighborhood, nothing that would draw attention—replaying the news footage in his mind. Henandez walking, talking, moving his formerly paralyzed limbs with ease.It was impossible. Completely impossible.Santiago had drilled the technique into him for months—the precise pressure points, the exact angle of force, the specific sequence that would trigger an irreversible cascade. "Once initiated, there is no reversal," Santiago had said repeatedly. "The victim dies, or they live as a cripple. Those are the only outcomes."Yet Henandez had done neither.Someone had intervened. Someone had reversed what shouldn't be reversible.And Alejandro needed to know how.He grabbed his jacket without thinking it through, without consulting Lucia or informing Vasquez. This was his problem, his technique, his reputation on the line. He didn't owe them explanations.The drive to Saint Catherine's Hospital took twenty minutes. Al
CHAPTER 60 PART 2
News vans clustered around Saint Catherine's entrance like vultures around carrion, reporters jockeying for position, cameras capturing every angle. Within an hour of Henandez's miraculous recovery, the story had spread across every news outlet in the city."—what doctors are calling an unprecedented recovery—""—Senator Harrio's son, pronounced on death's door just hours ago, has made a complete turnaround—""—medical experts baffled by the sudden reversal of symptoms—""—some are calling it a miracle, others are demanding investigation into what actually happened—"The headlines multiplied across television screens, websites, social media platforms. Henandez Harrio's impossible recovery became the story of the day, overshadowing political scandals and financial news.In an underground bunker on the city's east side, Alejandro sat on a worn couch watching one of those news broadcasts. The television showed footage of Henandez being wheeled out of his hospital room for transfer to a r
Chapter 60 PART 1
"Senator, please listen to me—" Diego began, but Alvaro cut him off with a sharp gesture."No. You listen to me." Alvaro's voice was steel wrapped in ice. "I appreciate what you did for my son. Truly. You saved his life when everyone else had given up. For that, you have my eternal gratitude. But don't for one second think that gratitude gives you authority to tell me what I can or cannot do.""I'm not trying to control you—""Aren't you?" Alvaro stepped closer, his politician's instincts warring with his father's rage. "You want me to just let this slide? Let Alejandro Morales walk free after he tried to murder my only child?""I want you to understand that the man who attacked your son isn't the same person you remember," Diego said urgently. "Two years ago, Alejandro was a desperate gambler with no real skills beyond manipulation. Now he's been trained in techniques that make him extremely dangerous. Going after him directly would be suicide.""Then what do you suggest? That I do n
CHAPTER 59 PART 2
"I know! I know it was stupid!" Tears began streaming down Henandez's face. "But then last night, someone showed up at the club. He said he was there to collect for Vasquez. He wasn't like the other collectors—he was younger, dressed well, spoke calmly. Almost polite."Diego's entire body tensed. "Describe him.""Mid-thirties, maybe. Lean build, expensive suit. Dark hair styled differently than it used to be—shorter, cleaner. He had this... this confidence about him. Like he knew he was in complete control." Henandez's hands trembled at the memory. "I told him I wasn't paying. That my father would protect me. And he just smiled.""What did he look like? Specifically." Diego's voice was urgent now."Sharp features. Strong jawline. Eyes that were... cold. Empty. Like looking at someone who didn't care if you lived or died." Henandez paused. "He reminded me of someone, actually. That heir who disappeared a few years ago—Alejandro something. Morales, maybe? But it couldn't have been him.
CHAPTER 59 PART 1
One grueling hour later, the hospital room door opened and Diego emerged, his shirt soaked through with sweat, his face pale with exhaustion. He moved like someone who'd just run a marathon, his breathing controlled but labored.Alvaro stopped pacing mid-step, his eyes locking onto Diego with desperate intensity. Dr. Mendoza and several nurses who'd been hovering nearby immediately rushed forward, crowding around Diego."Well?" Alvaro demanded. "Is he—""Your son is going to be okay," Diego said, his voice quiet but steady.The hallway erupted."That's impossible!" Dr. Mendoza pushed past Alvaro, heading straight for the room. "You're lying! There's no way—"He burst through the door and froze.Henandez lay in the bed, his eyes open and alert, his chest rising and falling with strong, steady breaths. The blue veining that had spread across his neck and shoulder had faded to barely visible traces. His right arm—previously paralyzed—moved slightly as he adjusted his position, reaching f
