Escaped Syndicate Wife Scrubbing Penthouse Floors Shocked When Sniper Bullet Shatters Glass Revealing Lethal Ex Husband Saved Her Secret Life
CHAPTER 2
The high-caliber sniper rounds shattered the thick glass, sending a violent shower of sharp, crystalline shards raining over the hardwood floor.
Leo’s heavy body slammed on top of Clare, shielding her delicate frame beneath his broad chest as he rolled them both toward the safety of the marble wet-bar.
A second bullet struck the polished mahogany counter above their heads, sending jagged splinters flying through the air alongside the heavy smell of ozone and gunpowder.
"Stay down and don't make a sound!" Leo commanded in a low, vicious growl, his dark eyes instantly transforming into those of a predatory killer executing combat tactics.
Clare clung desperately to the front of his unbuttoned shirt, her nails digging through the fabric and into his scarred skin as terror choked out her breath.
"Leo! Who is shooting at us?!" she gasped, her body trembling violently while the deafening cracks of muffled rifle fire echoed against the concrete walls.
"The Moretti syndicate found this hotel forty minutes before I arrived," Leo replied with cold, terrifying precision as he unholstered his matte-black Glock from his waistband.
He raised his arm over the edge of the marble bar, firing three rapid, calculated rounds through the shattered window frame to suppress the sniper positioned on the opposite rooftop.
