Chapter 96
Victor did not hesitate for a fraction of a second. He gestured sharply to his elite guards. Two massive men stepped forward, grabbed Bruno roughly by his arms, and dragged him violently out into the hallway. Bruno kicked and screamed, begging frantically, until a heavy, sickening crunch echoed loudly from the corridor, instantly followed by a high-pitched wail of pure, unadulterated agony. Then, total silence fell over the hall.The four remaining thugs shook so hard they looked like they were having violent seizures. They stared up at Dane, waiting for their own brutal judgment.Dane looked at them with total disgust. "You stood by the door and laughed. You thought it was a funny game.""We didn't touch her! We swear we never laid a finger on her!" one of the thugs cried out defensively, raising his hands in surrender."Face each other," Dane commanded. His voice left absolutely no room for negotiation or argument. "You will slap each other across the face. One hundred times each. I
Chapter 95
"Are you completely out of your mind?!" Lana shrieked, scrambling frantically backward across the hotel carpet. She held a shaking hand to her rapidly swelling cheek, her eyes wide with a mixture of absolute terror and indignant, spoiled fury. "I am Lana Prescott! I am the primary heir of the Prescott family! My father will have you killed for touching me! Do you know how much money we have?!"Victor did not flinch. He looked down at the ruined heiress with a gaze so full of raw, unfiltered contempt that it made Cade physically shrink back into his leather chair."You think the Prescott name means anything in my world?" Victor sneered, his deep voice vibrating with lethal mockery. "You are just a little girl playing dress-up in expensive clothes. Your father, the great Patriarch you hide behind, calls my private phone twice a year to beg for favorable shipping routes. If I told him I slapped his arrogant daughter today, he would personally send me a gift basket to apologize for your e
Chapter 94
But Victor did not look like the terrifying, ruthless underworld king that Bruno had just passionately described. Victor looked like a man who was running for his very life. He was panting heavily, his massive chest heaving up and down as he gasped for air. His face was entirely pale, slick with a thick layer of cold sweat. His eyes were wide, frantic, and darting around the room in absolute, sheer panic. He had run every single red light from the seaside docks, terrified that he would be a second too late to appease the Mercer heir.Bruno stared at the doorway in utter shock. The arrogant smirk vanished from his face instantly. He recognized the trench coat. He recognized the elite guards."Boss!" Bruno called out, immediately lowering his arm and pulling the knife away from Mara’s throat. He practically shoved Mara aside, eager to show his respect. He straightened his posture, acting like an obedient soldier. "Boss Victor! What are you doing here? You did not have to come all the wa

Dane opened his fingers. He did not hesitate, nor did he attempt to negotiate. He simply let go of his cell phone, allowing the expensive device to drop to the carpeted floor with a dull, quiet thud.Slowly, deliberately, Dane raised both of his hands into the air, keeping his palms open and visible. He did exactly as the thug commanded, feigning total submission. He swallowed the volcanic, homicidal rage burning in his chest, forcing his muscles to relax. He could not afford a single mistake. His pride meant absolutely nothing compared to Mara’s safety, and the sharp steel blade was resting dangerously close to her pulse.Seeing the terrifying man in the doorway finally back down and raise his hands, Bruno let out a harsh, arrogant bark of laughter."That is what I thought," Bruno sneered. He shifted his weight, pulling Mara a fraction of an inch closer against his chest to ensure she could not squirm away. "You know when you are beaten. You are just a smart guy who knows exactly whe
Chapter 92
The Mercer Group was the ultimate, untouchable powerhouse in the country. A single word from the Mercer heir could turn a local street gang into a legitimate, billionaire empire, or it could wipe them completely off the map before sunrise. Victor had sent gifts, bribes, and endless requests for a meeting for years, only to be met with total silence. Now, the elusive, terrifying heir to the throne was calling him directly."Mr. Mercer," Victor stammered. His intimidating, ruthless persona vanished into thin air. He stood up completely straight on the pier, acting as if Dane could see him through the phone. "It is an absolute honor. I am completely at your service. What do you need? Just say the word and it is done.""One of your street-level dogs is currently threatening my woman in the VIP dining room of the Grand Solstice Hotel," Dane stated coldly, his voice devoid of any human warmth. "I am walking into that room in less than two minutes. If you want to survive the night, and if yo
Chapter 91
Dane did not pull the phone away from his ear. He kept the device pressed tightly against the side of his head as he moved rapidly down the dark city pavement, his long strides eating up the distance back toward the commercial district.The open line was broadcasting a nightmare directly into his mind.He heard the heavy, metallic thud of a weapon being smashed against a wooden table. He heard the rough, arrogant voices of strange men filling the room. He heard Lana barking cruel, petty orders, her voice dripping with a toxic jealousy that made his skin crawl. But worst of all, he heard the exact moment the gang leader lunged. He heard the violent scuffle, the heavy breathing, and the horrifying, sharp sound of fabric tearing violently.The audio painted a perfectly clear picture of the assault. A cold, lethal fury exploded deep inside Dane’s chest. It was not a fiery, out-of-control anger; it was a freezing, absolute rage that demanded total destruction. He had sworn to protect her,
