Trailing behind them was a tall, muscular man dressed in black, who looked every bit the thug you’d expect Eric to associate with.

“Oh, no…” Eva muttered under her breath as she took a step closer to Chris.

Chris eyes narrowed at Eric.

Eric strolled toward them with a self-satisfied smirk plastered across his face. “Well, well, well,” he drawled, his voice dripping with mockery. “Looks like I’m just in time to watch the show.”

Eva’s blood boiled at the sight of him. “Eric, uncle Brian What the hell is going on?” she demanded, her voice sharp and angry. “Did you..Did you do this?"

She demanded, her voice trembling with fury. She stepped forward, her fists clenched at her sides as she glared at her cousin, trying to keep herself from completely unraveling.

Eric smirked, enjoying every second of their confusion and panic. “Oh, absolutely,” he said casually, as though they were discussing the weather. “This house? Still belongs to the Carter family, and last I checked, you and your lit

    Eric shrugged, unbothered. “I’ve got bigger fish to fry than you, Eva. It’s nothing personal, really. You just got in the way.”Chris finally spoke, his voice low and simmering with anger. “You’re going to regret this, Eric.”Eric’s smirk faltered for a brief second before returning. “Oh, I doubt that,” he sneered. “I’ve got legal backing. I’m doing this by the book. You want to fight me, Chris? You’re just a nobody. A matrilocal son-in-law, clinging to the family you married into.”Chris took a step forward, his towering presence suddenly making Eric flinch. His eyes, now filled with barely contained fury, bore into Eric’s. “You might have the papers, but that doesn’t mean you won’t pay for what you’re doing.”Eric backed up a step, trying to keep his composure. The thug standing behind him shifted slightly, ready to intervene if things escalated. “You think you can scare me?” Eric spat. “You’re a joke, Chris. You’ll always be a joke. You’re not even a real part of this family, so wh

    Eva watched in horror as the roof caved in, the second floor of the house crumbling under the weight of the hammer. The walls gave way, and with a final, thunderous crash, the house was reduced to rubble. Dust and debris filled the air, the once-familiar home now nothing more than a pile of wreckage. Eva’s heart ached as she turned to look at the remains of their home, the place where she had grown up, where she had shared so many memories with her family. Now, it was all gone. For a moment, there was nothing but the sound of the rubble settling, the echoes of destruction hanging in the air like a dark cloud. The world felt as though it had stopped, the weight of what had just happened pressing down on all of them. Chris’s looked at Eva “Take mother back inside the car,” he said quietly, his voice soft but urgent. Eva, still stunned by what had happened, nodded numbly and retreated a few steps with her mother, though her eyes stayed locked on Chris. Chris turned back to Eric an

    The air inside the car felt heavy, almost suffocating. The silence, which had reigned supreme since they left the crumbled remnants of the Carter family home, was unbearable. Outside, the fading light of day was slowly being swallowed by the oncoming night, casting long, eerie shadows over the countryside. The only sound came from the rhythmic hum of the tires against the asphalt and the occasional click of Kate’s tongue, which grated against everyone’s nerves. The rain had started only moments after they left the destroyed house, the soft patter of droplets on the roof blending with the hum of the engine. Inside, the atmosphere was suffocating. Chris, seated behind the wheel, drove with an unyielding calm, though his thoughts were anything but settled. Chris’s hands gripped the steering wheel firmly as he navigated the winding road, his eyes fixed ahead, his expression unreadable. As he was driving them toward their new destination. Behind him, the murmurs of tension were palp

    Chris was silent, the only movement the slight clenching of his jaw. He wasn’t about to jump into the family argument. He knew his place—an outsider, at least in Kate’s eyes—and he had no intention of fanning the flames further. His thoughts were already on what needed to be done next, on how he would make the Carter family pay for what they had done.“Enough,” Bruce’s voice cut through the tension like a knife. He sat up straighter, turning to face his wife. His voice was calm, but there was an edge to it that silenced Kate instantly. “What’s done is done. Arguing about it isn’t going to change anything.”For a moment, Kate looked like she was going to protest, but the look in Bruce’s eyes stopped her. She huffed and turned away, folding her arms across her chest again. The silence returned, but this time it was heavier, more oppressive. The weight of unspoken words and unresolved anger hung over them like a storm cloud.Eva sighed, sinking back into her seat. Her heart ached with a

    The car continued through the rain, the rhythmic sound of the windshield wipers the only noise for a while. Eventually, the bright lights of the city began to fade as they entered a quieter, more affluent area. The streets here were lined with large trees, their branches swaying gently in the breeze, and the houses were grand, each one more impressive than the last. Kate, who had been sulking in the back seat, perked up as they turned onto a wide, gated driveway. She frowned, glancing at Bruce who was equally curious about where they were going and then she shifted her gaze to Eva, who had a blank expression on her face and didn't even seem bothered in the slightest possible way. The mansion came into view after a long, winding drive through a private road. “Where are we?” Kate asked, her irritation giving way to confusion as the car rolled slowly toward the gates. Chris didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he pulled up to the security panel by the gate, rolled down the windo

    The helicopter’s blades roared above the scorched terrain, kicking up waves of sand as it ascended from the narrow gorge where Chris and his team had taken cover. The extraction had been swift and precise, thanks to Cara’s defiance of Mason’s orders. Chris sat near the cockpit, bloodied but alive, staring at the phone he had taken from the enemy leader during their last desperate clash. His fingers danced across the keypad, composing a message that would set the next phase of their plan into motion.“ All targets eliminated. Confirming Chris and his squad had been neutralized.”He read the text twice before pressing send. The stolen phone vibrated faintly in his hand, sending the message directly to Mason. A bitter smile crept across his face. Mason would never suspect it was him—he would think it was a final report from the enemy forces he had conspired with.“Message sent,” Chris muttered to Ethan, who was securing Roy’s injured arm beside him. “Let’s see how Mason reacts.”Ethan g

    In the shadows of the crimson-tinted base, Mason waited. His eyes never strayed from the monitors in front of him, the glow from the screens illuminating his calculating expression. He had spent years cultivating his place in the Legion, building his alliances, playing the part of the dutiful soldier. But beneath the surface, something had festered—a hunger, a thirst for power that had been there all along, waiting for the right moment to break free.Mason had known that James, the leader of the Legion, was vulnerable. After all, the older man had always been so sure of his power, so confident in his ability to hold the reins of the Crimson Legion. But James had a weakness: his attachments. And none more so than his favorite student, Chris.Mason had always hated it. Hated how James doted on Chris, how he saw potential in the young soldier. It was a jealousy that had quietly gnawed at him over the years, and now, it was something he could no longer control.So, Mason played his cards

    The team moved with deadly precision, their years of training evident in every step. As they entered the camp, Chris took the lead, his silenced pistol eliminating guards with surgical accuracy.A lone sentry patrolling near a truck never saw Chris coming. In one fluid motion, Chris snapped his neck and signaled for the team to advance.The camp erupted into chaos when their presence was finally discovered. Gunfire lit up the night as Chris led the assault, his movements a blur of lethal efficiency. Each shot he fired found its mark, and his team followed his lead, their confidence bolstered by his unwavering resolve."Ethan, cover the east side!" Chris shouted, reloading his rifle.Ethan moved swiftly, his sharp aim taking down two approaching soldiers. "Got it!"An enemy grenade landed near their position, but Chris reacted instantly, grabbing it and hurling it back toward the enemy. The explosion rocked the camp, sending debris flying and disorienting their attackers.Chris finally

    Meanwhile, As Chris waited for extraction, his resolve hardened. The mission wasn’t over, and the fight was far from done.The desert air was tense as the helicopter lifted off from the extraction point, its rotors slicing through the night. Chris sat near the door, his rifle resting on his lap, scanning the horizon for any threats. Ethan, Roy and another surviving operative, sat across from him, their faces grim but relieved. "This confirms it," Chris muttered, his voice low but resolute. "There's a mole in the Crimson Legion."Ethan frowned. "You sure about that, sir?"Chris nodded, his gaze sharp. "They knew we'd come. Every step of this mission was compromised." His voice was low, calculated. "The enemy was too prepared. They knew our every move.Someone's feeding them intel."Before Ethan could respond, the cockpit alarm blared, jolting everyone to alertness and the pilot's panicked shout pierced through their headsets."Missiles incoming! Brace for impact!"The first explosion

    Despite their efforts, the enemy continued to press, their numbers relentless. Chris’s mind raced as he evaluated their options.“We’re not going to outrun them,” Ethan said, his tone grim.“Then we outsmart them,” Chris replied.Spotting a narrow canyon ahead, Chris led Ethan toward it, the rocky terrain offering some cover. The enemy jeeps couldn’t follow, forcing their pursuers to dismount and continue on foot.The narrow passage became a deadly battleground as Chris and Ethan used the terrain to their advantage. Chris’s sharp instincts and flawless aim were on full display, each kill executed with surgical precision.Ethan, despite his exhaustion, matched Chris’s intensity. His quick reflexes and steady aim kept the enemy at bay, earning a nod of approval from Chris.“You’ve gotten better,” Chris said, reloading his weapon.“Guess I’ve had a good teacher,” Ethan replied with a grin.They held their position, firing at the enemy constantly until Roy was able to catch up with them a

Alarms blared, and enemy troops swarmed.The enemies troops began swarming the campChris senses heightened instantly “Move!” he barked, his rifle barking in sharp bursts as he covered their retreat.Ethan provided backup, his aim deadly as he took down enemies with precision. “They’re closing in!”The rest of the squad began shooting as well in order to decrease the pressure.Unfortunately, Chris and his team were pinned down as they were taking heavy fire from all sides.The number of enemy troops was three times as much as what the mission report stated.Chris was taken off guard by how quickly the mission had gotten out of control and it seemed like he had fallen into a trap.Chris’s instincts kicked in as he took cover behind a stack of crates, his weapon firing in controlled bursts. “They knew we were coming,” he muttered, his mind racing.Despite the odds, th

    The Midnight RaidBy the time the moon hung high in the sky, Chris and his handpicked team were en route to Sudan. The helicopter flew low, its rotors slicing through the stillness of the desert night.Chris briefed the team over the roar of the engines. “We’re dealing with a highly organized group. They’ve anticipated our moves before. Expect heavy resistance. Our priority is James. Nothing else matters.”The plan was to extract James and the team will be transported from the site by a military convoy led by Mason which was already enroute couple of hours ago.Chris was surprised that Mason willingly chose to lead the escort team as he had expected that Mason would never want to miss the action. As the enemy camp came into view, the tension in the air was electric. The camp sprawled across the sand, a chaotic mix of tents, watchtowers, and armed patrols.The helicopter hovered just long enough for the team to rappel down, their black gear blending seamlessly with the shadows.They
