CHAPTER 161 PART 2
One moment he was standing over Donald. The next, his right hand had shot forward, his fingers closing around Raymond Romano's throat like a vise. With seemingly no effort at all, Darius lifted the mafia boss off the ground, hoisting him into the air as if he weighed nothing.Raymond's eyes bulged in shock and terror. His hands flew to Darius's wrist, clawing desperately at the iron grip that was slowly choking the life from him. His legs kicked uselessly in the air, his expensive Italian shoes finding no purchase."Let me make something abundantly clear," Darius said, his voice still maddeningly calm as Raymond struggled and gasped for air. "Jessica is under my protection. Anyone—and I mean anyone—who attem
CHAPTER 161 PART 1
The silence that fell over the grand ballroom was suffocating. Garrick Wesley and Raymond Romano stood frozen, their faces drained of color as they stared at the impossible scene before them.Fifty of their best guards—trained professionals, armed and dangerous—lay scattered across the marble floor like broken toys. Some groaned in pain, clutching shattered limbs. Others simply stared at the ceiling in shock, unable to comprehend their defeat.And in the center of it all stood Darius Kane, his left hand still pinning Donald Wesley to the ground as if the heir were nothing more than an insect beneath his palm. His breathing remained even, his posture relaxed. Not a single bead of sweat touched his brow."This... this is impossible," Garrick finally managed to whisper, his voice cracking.Raymond's jaw worked soundlessly, opening and closing like a fish gasping for air. His mind simply couldn't process what his eyes had witnessed. One man. One goddamn man had obliterated their entire se
CHAPTER 160 PART 2
The first Wesley operator reached Darius, swinging a tactical baton toward his head with enough force to crack skull bone.Darius moved.Still holding Donald down with his LEFT hand—never releasing his grip on the Wesley heir's neck—Darius's right hand came up, deflecting the baton strike with his forearm while simultaneously driving his elbow into the operator's throat with surgical precision.The man went down gagging, unable to breathe properly, his weapon clattering to the floor.One down. Forty-nine to go.Two more operators came in simultaneously from different angles—one high, one low—attempting a coordinated attack that should have been impossible to defend against while Darius was encumbered by holding Donald.Darius pivoted on his feet, using Donald's kneeling form as a pivot point. His right leg came up in a devastating roundhouse kick that caught the high attacker in the temple, dropping him instantly. The momentum carried through, and Darius's heel came down on the low at
CHAPTER 160 PART 1
Donald's hysterical shouting continued to echo through the ballroom, his voice rising higher with each word, his vindictive excitement at having reinforcements making him increasingly bold and obnoxious."You're FINISHED, Kane! FINISHED! You think you're so tough? So powerful? Wait until my father's guards get their hands on you! Wait until they break every—"Darius's irritation—which he'd been controlling carefully throughout this entire ordeal—finally reached its limit.In one fluid motion, too fast for most people in the room to track properly, Darius moved. His hand shot out, grabbing Donald by the collar and yanking hi
CHAPTER 159 PART 2
But looking at Josh and Jessica's expressions, at their genuine fear for his safety, Darius recognized that explaining any of that would sound like arrogant boasting. Would seem like someone who didn't understand the reality of his situation.So he simply smiled—gentle, appreciative—and shook his head."I'm not leaving," Darius said quietly but firmly. "But thank you both for caring enough to try to protect me."Josh made a frustrated sound, his hands clenching into fists. "Master Darius, you're not thinking clearly! This isn't about pride or principle! This is about survival!""I am thinking clearly," Darius assured him. "Clearer than I have in a long time, actually.""Then think about Alessia," Josh said suddenly, desperately playing what he thought was his strongest card. "Think about your girlfriend who's here at this party somewhere. Who's depending on you. Who needs you alive and safe, not dead because you were too stubborn to retreat when you should have."Darius blinked, proce
CHAPTER 159 PART 1
Josh Romano stepped forward, his expression showing determination mixed with genuine concern. He'd been watching this entire situation unfold, had witnessed Darius systematically dismantle Donald's security team, had seen his sister's relief at Darius's intervention. But now, with their father present and fifty armed guards filling the ballroom, the dynamics had shifted dangerously."Master Darius," Josh said, his voice urgent but respectful. "You need to leave. Right now. While there's still time."Darius turned to look at his former student, one eyebrow raised slightly. "Josh—""I'm serious," Josh interrupted, moving closer and lowering his voice so only Darius, Jessica, and a few nearby guests could hear. "I don't care how well you can fight. I don't care that you took down Donald's entire security team. My father's presence changes everything."He glanced toward Raymond, who was still assessing the situation with those cold, calculating eyes that had intimidated countless enemies
