Ivan's Pov

None of us slept after reading the message.

Nikolai put the phone down on the floor between us and the three of us sat against the bed and no one said anything for a long time.

The room was very still. Outside the building the city was doing what it always did and had no idea what had just landed in this room.

"The Castro DNA result was falsified," Nikolai said eventually.

"Yes," Ace said. "That is what Calloway is saying."

"Which means someone inside our network falsified it," Niko

  • THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION   Unreal

    Ace's PovThe walls had started breathing somewhere around the third hour. A slow expansion and contraction. I knew it was not real, i could not stop watching anyway."Nikolai. The walls.""I see them too." His voice came from somewhere close. His hand was steady against my arm. Steady felt like the wrong word for something that kept dissolving at the edges every time I tried to focus on it."You do not see them. You are lying to make me feel less insane.""I am not lying." Ivan spoke from my other side. "I am telling you they are not breathing. Your eyes are telling you something, your brain has decided to believe it."Rem had arrived forty minutes ago. His equipment was spread across the small table in whatever room we had retreated to. His face carried the specific tightness of someone working against a clock he did not fully understand.

  • THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION   Shattered

    Nikolai's PovI crossed the room before the syringe was even fully empty. My hands closed around her wrist. The damage was already done by the time I forced her away from him.Ace stumbled backward. His hand went to his neck. His face shifted into something pale and unfocused that had not been there a second ago."What did you give him." My voice came out as something close to a roar."Something new." She was completely unbothered. She stepped back toward her chair. "Untested on humans, technically. I had it prepared as a contingency. In case the antidote conversation went exactly the way it just went.""You poisoned him again." Ivan had moved to Ace's other side. Both of us held him upright as his legs began to fail."I did not poison him. This is something different. I genuinely do not know what it will do to him. That is precisely what makes

  • THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION   The Test

    Ace's PovI stayed kneeling because standing too quickly would have broken whatever fragile cover I had managed to build in the six hours since I arrived."Let me explain." I faced Nikolai. "Before either of you reacts to what you are seeing.""Explain it standing up."I stood slowly. Her hand slid off my head as I rose. The room held its breath, all four of us in some configuration of tension that had no easy resolution."I am not betraying you. I needed her to believe I was. Long enough to get the antidote, long enough to learn what she actually wants."She laughed quietly from her chair. "He is good. I will give him that. He has been performing loyalty to me for six hours. His conviction almost fooled me as well.""Almost.""Almost." She nodded. "Which is why we are at this particular moment instead o

  • THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION   Too Late Ivan's Pov

    Ivan's PovI came back to consciousness in a holding cell. I had no memory of how I had gotten there. My face throbbed where someone had clearly worked it over while I was unconscious. The first coherent thought I had was that I needed to find Nikolai. Whoever had taken me might decide I had outlived my usefulness.The cell door was not as secure as whoever built it had intended. I had it open within twenty minutes. I used nothing but the frame's weak hinge point. The same trick I had used to free Nikolai from a different room months ago.I moved through the building fast. I took down the two guards I encountered. I did not give either of them time to raise an alarm. I made it to the surface before anyone realized I was already gone.Rem answered on the first ring when I called from a stolen phone."Ivan." Rem's voice had gone sharp with relief. "Where are you.""I do not know the exact address. I need extraction. I need it fast.""Nikolai is awake. He has been frantic since he found

  • THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION   Alone

    Ace's PovI left while both of them were asleep. The first real sleep either of them had gotten in two days. Exhaustion finally won the argument their bodies had been losing against adrenaline.Rem did not stop me. I had told him I would tell them everything afterward. Regardless of how it went. He had looked at me for a long moment before agreeing that the truth after the fact was better than no truth at all.The location she sent was a private residence on the eastern edge of the city. Far enough from anywhere we had ever operated that I understood immediately she had chosen it for exactly that reason. It belonged to no one's history but hers.She was waiting in a sitting room when I arrived, no visible security. The same controlled stillness she had carried since the corridor."You came without them.""You asked for me alone.""I did not actually expect you to honor that. Most people in your position would have brought an army.""I am not most people."She gestured to the chair ac

  • THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION   Hiding It

    Ace's PovI had eleven hours left when I finally admitted to myself that hiding it was no longer a choice I could sustain.The tremor had started in my left hand first. The same way it had in the cabin. I kept both hands in my pockets through most of the morning to avoid either of them noticing. Rem knew, he had run the field test. Rem had agreed, against his own judgment, to let me handle the next step myself before bringing it to Nikolai and Ivan."This is reckless." Rem watched me pull up the secondary relay."I know.""You have seventy two hours. You have already used twenty-three of them. Hiding it from them does not buy you anything.""It buys me time to find the antidote. Without them stopping me from doing whatever finding it requires.""They would not stop you.""They would try to protect me first. Protecting me costs time I do not have."I sent the message through the relay to the only contact who might know where a compound this specific had come from. The response came ba
