A shadow loomed behind himanother man in black attempting a sneak attack.
Without hesitation, Kellan spun, delivering a brutal elbow before swiftly turning to fire a fatal shot.
From Allisons vantage point, she saw blood splattering across Kellans face, transforming him into a chilling specter of vengeance.
He moved with the lethal efficiency of someone fluent only in violence.
She struggled with the car door, but it refused to budgeit was locked from the outside.
Escape wasnt an option.
But that didnt mean she was going to sit idle.
Her gaze locked on the bomb strapped to the kidnappers and the remote device.
Without missing a beat, she yanked the necklace from around her neck.
Well, if thats how its going to be, she muttered.
From the necklace, she retrieved a small USB drive, plugged it into her laptop, and immediately began typing. Lines of code raced across the screen as she hacked into the bombs system, her mind a whirlwind of focus.

Floyd didnt hesitate.
Consider it done.
He never asked questions about her secrets, never doubted her abilities.
His trust in her was complete, unwavering.
Despite his indifference toward Kellan, his affection for Lorna meant hed help regardless of Allisons request. The battlefield was chaos.
Amid the gunfire and screams, Floyd spotted an assassin sneaking up on Kellan with a blade.
Without warning, Floyd kicked the would-be attacker to the ground.
And you call yourself a professional hitman? He drove his boot into the mans chest, a sickening crack reverberating as the assassins ribs shattered.
Blood poured from his mouth.
Glancing at Kellan, Floyd quickly said, Allisons trying to hack the remote control system.
We just need to buy her enough time.
Alright.
Kellan wiped the blood from his face, momentarily stunned by Floyds sudden appearance.
He hadnt expected this man to show up here of all places.
The fact that Allison managed to hack the explosive device while confined within the car was nothing short of unexpected.
But there was no tto focus on surprises.
Kellan surged forward, engaging the assassins with renewed force.
Each strike was as sharp as a blade, each movement merciless.
What had started as an evenly matched firefight began to tilt in Kellans favor.
The killers faltered under the relentless pressure, realizing defeat was imminent.
One of them shouted, Retreat! In an instant, they abandoned their leaderthe man in the peaked capwithout so much as a backward glance.
Floyd was about to give chase when Kellan grabbed his arm.
My men are in position to block their escape, Kellan said, wiping blood from his face.
He looked every bit the blood-drenched warrior.
His gaze then turned coldly to the man in the peaked cap, who was left alone, a human bomb waiting to detonate.
Your friends ditched you.
Theyve made you the sacrificial lamb, Kellan said, his voice ice-cold.

Lloyd, he sneered, if you care about this little girl, youll trade your life for hers! The gunfire, the blood, the violenceit all flashed before her eyes like a nightmare she couldnt wake from. The image brought back memories of her father dying in front of her when she was just a small child.
Images of Kellan and her father blended in her mind.
Ah... She sobbed uncontrollably, her eyes red and puffy, but unable to speak to her uncle.
Dont move! the kidnapper yelled, locking his hold tighter around her neck in frustration.
He knew he was cornered.
He had just two choices: either murder Kellan with Lorna and escape to sea, or perish here.
He narrowed his eyes and continued, Mr.
Lloyd, Im counting to three.
