Chapter 4 - The Midnight Siege
Red emergency lights flashed across the estate corridors as sirens began to blare throughout the property.
Cassandra’s husband, federal Judge Marcus Sterling, had utilized his corrupt law enforcement connections to launch an immediate tactical raid on the Volkov compound under the guise of an "emergency arrest" for Cassandra's detention.
"Damian! They've breached the outer perimeter!" a bodyguard shouted, pulling his firearm.
Damian didn't flinch. He drew a sleek black pistol from his tuxedo jacket, stepping firmly between the door and the two women.
"Take my mother and Sofia to the subterranean vault," Damian commanded his top operative. "No one enters without my personal clearance code."
Sofia grabbed Damian’s forearm before he could step out into the hallway. "Don't get killed for a family you just found."
Damian looked at her hand on his sleeve, a rare, genuine smile touching his lips amidst the chaos. "A Volkov doesn't run, Sofia. I am going to end the Sterling legacy tonight."
