Chapter 4 - The Traitor
Vincent recognized the gold watch instantly.
It belonged to one of his most trusted lieutenants.
It belonged to Graham Slate.
Vincent stared at his security chief from across the bunker.
Graham was standing near the emergency exit hatch.
His submachine gun was lowered, but his hand was tense.
Vincent slowly stepped in front of Leah and Maisie.
He asked Graham how much Victor Thorne had paid for the betrayal.
Graham did not bother acting surprised.
He let out a heavy sigh and raised his weapon.
He pointed the barrel directly at Vincent's chest.
Graham said Thorne had offered him three million dollars and control of the docks.
He explained that taking out Vincent was just a bonus.
Thorne really just wanted to end the Carrow bloodline forever.
Maisie whimpered behind Vincent's legs.
Vincent kept his voice incredibly calm.
He told Graham he was making a fatal mistake.
Graham laughed and cocked the gun.
He said the bunker was entirely soundproof.
He could kill all three of them and tell Thorne the job was done.
Vincent did not look at the gun.
He looked at the emergency control panel on the wall behind Graham.
Vincent casually pressed a button on a small remote hidden in his pocket.
The bunker's fire suppression system activated instantly.
A thick cloud of blinding white chemical foam sprayed violently from the ceiling.
Graham screamed as the chemicals hit his eyes.
He fired blindly into the thick fog.
Bullets sparked against the concrete walls.
Vincent dove through the foam.
He tackled his security chief to the ground.
A brutal struggle for the gun began in the dark.

A single gunshot echoed through the bunker.
Someone hit the floor with a heavy, wet thud.
