Chapter 28 - The Terminal Arrest
On the Grand Central balcony, Tessa's phone chimed with a text message from her Montana team leader.
She looked down at her screen, her eyes widening in pure horror as she saw the photo of her captured operatives.
Mark grabbed her wrist instantly, twisting the pistol from her grip and securing it inside his coat pocket.
Federal agents rushed the balcony from all four stairwells, badges displayed, surrounding Tessa within seconds.
"Tessa Sterling, your bail is revoked!" Agent Martinez announced, snapping steel handcuffs around her wrists once more.
Colonel Vance tried to slip into the crowd near the subway entrance, but two undercover marshals tackled him to the floor.
The entire concourse came to a halt as the high-ranking Pentagon official was led away in chains before hundreds of commuters.
Mark stood on the balcony, watching the arrest unfold under the shadow of the grand American flag.
