“That won’t be a problem,” Axel snapped, a malicious smirk playing at the corners of his thin lips. “I’ve heard dumping Omegas in a bin is a good way to be rid of them.”

That repugnant son of a bitch.

Frannie’s face crumpled, her shoulders slumping in defeat. It was as though I could feel her heart breaking. After everything she’d been through, she didn’t deserve this.

Trinity’s eyes filled with tears as her hands clenched in her lap so tightly, her knuckles turned white.

The men and guards in the room remained uncaring about Frannie’s presence, their attention focused solely on Arman and the decision he needed to make. They didn’t notice as she cautiously edged away from them, seeking cover behind the plants that surrounded the area. To them, she was insignificant, just another pawn to be sacrificed. Witnessing her suffer like this tore at my heart.

With Trinity’s hand tightly clasped in mine and Daniel holding onto her protectively, we stared at the mounting tension escalating before us.

There was only so much I was going to take before I burst out there and fucking ripped them apart.

Arman hesitated. His eyes flicked between Aspen and Viper, weighing the worth of the trade.

Axel’s impatience mounted, his foot tapping rhythmically on the floor, his face twisting with his frown.

The seconds stretched into an eternity.

Finally, Arman met Axel’s gaze, a sneer of disdain warping his lips.

“Fine,” he spat, his voice dripping with reluctance. “We have a deal.”

It didn’t surprise me that Arman would agree to the trade. He was a snake, always looking out for himself and his interests above all else.

The agreement hung in the air like a death sentence, and I knew that now, more than ever, we had to act. These scum would pay for their treachery.

As we watched the scene unfold, I spotted Frannie stealthily slipping out from the plants. She moved with unexpected grace and swiftness, her movements barely noticeable. Viper, with a guard to his side but not behind him, seemed to be her target.

My heart thundered—she was untying his binds, freeing his hands.

Fuck yeah, that’s it.

A newfound respect for her surged through me.

As she worked on Viper’s binds, the air around us crackled with tension as Arman glared at Aspen, leering at him like he was already picturing his torture. I caught Daniel’s eye and gave him a subtle nod, signaling that he should ready himself for the upcoming battle. Turning to Trinity, I mouthed for her to stay hidden and safe, my love for her stronger than ever.

Finally, with a swift and precise movement, Frannie freed Viper. Without missing a beat, he slyly knocked a fist into the guard’s head. The man’s knees crumbled, and Viper swiped the blade from the unconscious man’s grasp just as Axel and Arman twisted in his direction.

Viper was already lunging for Axel.

A rush of adrenaline had me stiff as I leapt into action from our hiding place, Daniel at my side. It just also happened to be when the two remaining guards in the greenhouse burst toward Viper, one of them reaching for his gun.

The room erupted into chaos, a cacophony of shouts and clashing echoed through the air.

Axel, caught off guard by Viper’s sudden attack, stumbled backward in a desperate attempt to dodge the deadly assault. His mouth twisted, the smug confidence that had so defined him just seconds ago replaced with pure terror.

Daniel and I trampled the plants, targeting the two guards attacking Viper.

As I slammed into one of the guards, hammering fist after fist into his ribs, my gaze frantically looked across to Viper, feet from me, who had the balls to swing around and punch Arman right in the face, knocking the gun right out of his hand in the process.

I threw myself toward them when Axel shoved into me, knocking me sideways, a gun drawn in my face. But it came in the same second Daniel delivered a punch to his lower spine, then jumped onto his back. Axel’s eyes widened, and I ducked just as his gun went off, slamming into the glass wall, shattered glass cascading over us.

Someone bowled into me, throwing me completely off my feet, air bursting out of my lungs… a new guard had charged into the fight. Fuck!

That was exactly when I also caught sight of Trinity standing behind Aspen, frantically tugging at his ties to free him.

It all seemed to happen in the blink of an eye. I kicked the guard in the jewels as he came at me, then scrambled up on my feet, leaving the guard for Daniel, who charged him. Viper fought a guard, Aspen rushed for Arman, who was pushing himself up off the floor, and I made a beeline for Axel.
