Chapter 455 Not Alone
The safe house was silent when Hadi's team arrived. Samira's face was pale, her eyes red-rimmed. Khalil's hands were trembling. Rami stood by the door, his jaw tight, unable to speak.Haitham rose from his chair. "What happened?"Samira's voice cracked. "It's Hadi. He's been captured. We don't know where they took him. The judge—he was killed. Hadi was shot at, his car crashed. When we got there, he was gone."The room erupted.Laith slammed his fist against the wall. Ali's face went white. In the corner, still recovering from his own ordeal, Antar struggled to his feet."Who?" Hazem's voice was quiet, too quiet. "Who took him?""We don't know. Military, probably. They took the documents too. Everything the judge gave him."Hazem was already moving toward the equipment locker. Laith intercepted him."What are you doing?""I'm going to get him.""Alone? Like you always do?" Laith's voice was sharp. "Hazem, you can't keep doing this. You can't keep running off on your own, trying to be
Chapter 454 The Trap
The judge's words came in a flood, as if he had been holding them back for years. Documents. Evidence. Names. Dates. Connections between the president and the UFN that went deeper than anyone had suspected. Hadi listened, his mind racing, his heart pounding."This is everything," the judge said, sliding a thick envelope across the table. "Bank records. Communication logs. Photographs. It's all here. Proof that the president has been working with the UFN since before the legislation, before the crackdown, before everything."Hadi opened the envelope, scanning the documents. His eyes widened."This is... this is enough to bring down the government.""It's enough to try," the judge corrected. "But you need to be careful. There are people who will do anything to keep this secret. People who will kill to protect it.""I know." Hadi looked up. "Thank you. For this. For everything."The judge nodded slowly. "I've done terrible things. I've enabled terrible things. But I want to make it right
Chapter 453 The Weight of Leadership
The safe house was quiet when Hadi slipped out. His footsteps were silent on the worn floorboards, his movements careful not to wake the others. They needed rest. They had been running, fighting, grieving for days. He would not disturb their fragile peace.Outside, the night air was cold and sharp. Hadi pulled his coat tighter and walked toward the rendezvous point—a small café on the edge of the city, closed for the night, but familiar to his legal team. They had used it before, in quieter times, when the threat was political rather than mortal.His team was already there. Three of them—Samira, Khalil, and Rami—huddled around a small table in the back, their faces pale, their eyes tired. They had been working for days, fighting the legal battle while the Knights fought the physical one.Hadi sat down heavily, his body aching with exhaustion."I'm tired," he said, his voice raw. "I tried so hard to prevent this. I spent years building the case. I presented evidence, testimonies, every
Chapter 452 The Prince and the Warrior
The cell was cold, but Antar had stopped feeling cold centuries ago. He sat against the wall, his body bruised and broken, his dark eyes fixed on the single light bulb that flickered overhead. The transformation had drained him—more than he wanted to admit. He had used a form he had never fully mastered, had pushed his body beyond its limits, had sacrificed himself for people he had only known for months.And he would do it again.The door opened. Two guards dragged Marwan inside and shoved him onto the floor. His face was bruised, his ribs cracked, his spirit unbroken. When he saw Antar, his eyes widened."You," Marwan said. "You're here.""Where else would I be?" Antar's voice was weak, but there was a hint of humor in it. "The presidential suite was booked."Marwan almost laughed. Almost. He pulled himself to a sitting position, wincing as his injuries protested."They told me you turned into a bear. A giant bear.""I did.""Why?"Antar was silent for a moment. Then: "I don't know.
Chapter 451 The Bear's Sacrifice
The tunnel was dark and narrow, the walls slick with moisture, the air heavy with the smell of earth and decay. Antar led the way, his movements sure and silent, his dark eyes gleaming in the dim light of Ali's headlamp. Behind him came Ali, his equipment pack strapped tight, his fingers already working on the tablet that controlled the prison's security systems. Laith followed, his speed armor humming softly, his good hand resting on his blade."We're close," Antar whispered. "The tunnel opens into the prison's lower levels. There's a maintenance access point that leads directly to the cells."Ali nodded, his eyes fixed on the tablet. "I'm reading the security feeds. The cameras are down in this sector. We have a window.""Then we move."They emerged into a narrow corridor, the walls painted a drab grey, the floor slick with the residue of years of neglect. The maintenance access point was exactly where Antar had said it would be—a heavy metal door, rusted but functional.Ali knelt b
Chapter 450 The Unbroken
The cell was small, cold, and windowless. A single fluorescent light buzzed overhead, casting harsh shadows across the concrete walls. Marwan sat on the edge of a narrow cot, his hands cuffed in front of him, his body aching from days of interrogation.They had been at him for three days. Three days of questions, threats, and sleepless nights. Three days of refusing to break.The door opened. Two guards entered, their faces hard, their eyes cold. Behind them came the interrogator—a thin man with a sharp face and sharper eyes. He carried a folder thick with papers."Marwan," the interrogator said, his voice smooth as oil. "We've been through this before. You know what we want. Just tell us who the other Knights are. Where they're hiding. What they're planning. And this can all end."Marwan didn't look up. "I've told you before. I don't know anything.""You expect me to believe that? One Of The leaders of the Askalan Knights? The man who fought beside Hazem himself?" The interrogator le
