Chapter 14 - The Tactical Veteran
The lead mercenary fired three suppressed rounds, but Marcus had already disengaged into combat stance[cite: 7].
Marcus grabbed the lead attacker's weapon, twisting the steel frame until the mercenary's wrist snapped violently[cite: 7].
In a fluid, lethal motion, Marcus used the disarmed weapon to neutralize the second attacker with two rapid strikes[cite: 7].
The remaining two mercenaries attempted to fall back toward the balcony, horror filling their eyes[cite: 7].
Marcus swept the leg of the third attacker, slamming him headfirst into the marble coffee table[cite: 7].
Within forty-five seconds, all four mercenaries lay unconscious and disarmed across the penthouse floor[cite: 7].
Marcus pulled out the lead mercenary's satellite comms radio, pressing the push-to-talk button[cite: 7].

"Tell Vivian her hit squad failed," Marcus spoke into the radio with chilling calm. "I'm coming for her next."[cite: 7]
