Chapter 19 - Dust to Dust
The courtyard descended into immediate chaos.
The mercenaries looked at each other, realizing their paychecks had just vanished into thin air.
Vincent used the confusion to strike, sweeping the legs of the guard standing behind him.
He grabbed the falling man's pistol and rolled behind a stone pillar for cover.
Julian screamed in uncontrollable rage, ordering his men to shoot everyone.
But the mercenaries were professionals who only fought for money.
Without their offshore funds guaranteed, they slowly lowered their weapons and began backing away into the shadows.
Within seconds, Julian's grand army had completely abandoned him.
Julian stood alone in the rain, staring at his brother with pure, unhinged madness.
He raised his silver pistol and fired wildly at the pillar where Vincent was hiding.
Vincent stepped out, his own weapon raised and perfectly steady.
He told Julian that it was finally over, that the Carrow empire was dead.
Julian screamed that he would never stop hunting them as long as he had breath in his lungs.
He lunged forward, aiming his gun directly at Leah's chest.
Vincent did not hesitate for a single second.
He pulled the trigger twice, striking Julian squarely in the center of his chest.
Julian stopped in his tracks, dropping his weapon to the wet pavement.
He fell to his knees, staring up at Vincent with a look of genuine surprise.

Vincent dropped his gun and fell to his knees, exhaling a breath he had held for fifteen years.
