Chapter 9 - The Merciless Rescue
Chloe woke up tied to a cold metal chair in a dark, damp warehouse.
Her head throbbed violently, but her first thought was of Julian.
The kidnapper, a scarred man with cruel eyes, laughed at her terrified expression.
"Your billionaire boyfriend isn't coming to save you, little nurse," he taunted, pacing around her.

Gunfire erupted, deafening and chaotic, lighting up the dark warehouse.

Chloe buried her face in his chest, sobbing uncontrollably as the adrenaline finally crashed.
Julian carried her out of the burning warehouse in his arms.
