Chapter 10 - The Reversal
Inside the study, the sudden complete darkness caught Marco's men entirely off guard.
Gabriel didn't hesitate. Trained in night-combat operations, he lunged across the desk, disarming the nearest mercenary in two seconds and taking his suppressed submachine gun.
Puff-puff-puff!
Silenced gunshots echoed through the dark room. Two of Marco's mercenaries fell to the floor before they could even switch on their tactical flashlights.
"Find the light! Shoot him!" Marco screamed in panic, backing toward the hallway.
Gabriel rolled across the rug, coming up right behind his traitorous security chief, Leo. He delivered a heavy gun-butt strike to Leo's temple, dropping him instantly to the floor.
Outside in the hallway, Emma grabbed a heavy brass floor lamp in the dark and swung it with all her strength, knocking out the guard standing over her.
