Chapter 5 - Chapter 5: No Turning Back

The tension was suffocating.

Ethan stared at Lena like she was a stranger.

Or worse—

A threat.

"You're hiding something," he said.

Lena chuckled softly.

"Aren't we all?"

Ethan's jaw tightened.

"Answer me."

Lena stepped closer.

Fearless.

Their faces were inches apart.

"Why?" she whispered.

"Afraid of the truth?"

Ethan grabbed her wrist suddenly.

Firm.

Possessive.

"Don't play with me."

Lena didn't resist.

Instead—

She smiled.

"Too late."

Their eyes locked.

Dangerous.

Intense.

Then—

Gunshots echoed in the distance.

Both of them turned instantly.

Instinct.

Professional.

Ethan pulled out a gun.

Lena noticed.

So—

He was exactly what she thought.

Not just a CEO.

A monster.

Their enemies had arrived.

Men in black surrounded the area.

Weapons ready.

Ethan looked at Lena.

"This is your mess?"

Lena smirked.

"Maybe yours."

Without warning—

The fight began.

Bullets flew.

Chaos erupted.

But in the middle of it all—

Lena moved like a shadow.

Fast.

Precise.

Deadly.

Ethan watched her.

For the first time—

He realized something terrifying.

His wife…

Was not normal.

She was a weapon.

And now—

There was no turning back.
