Killion motioned to his bodyguards, urging them to lower their weapons. Silence. That’s all my brothers needed, silence and…a way in.Tobias stepped around the edge of the doorway to draw the bodyguard’s gaze. He lifted the gun in his hand, barely taking aim before he squeezed the trigger.
Crack.
The bodyguard stumbled backwards, then dropped to the floor, blood spilling from a hole in the center of his forehead. Killion stared at the sickening sight…then slowly turned his gaze as Tobias strode toward us, with Nick right behind.
Crack…
Crack.
Two more guards were hit. One went down, while the other stayed upright.
Crack!
Crack!
The wounded guard tried to shoot back.
“Don’t bother,” Tobias snarled. His head was down, his shoulders rock hard as he took one more step and lunged. He charged forward, slammed into the male before fists and fury raged. My hand trembled at the sheer brutality of my brother as he used his knuckles as weapons, driving into the bodyguard’s face over and over and over again.
The male could only take the punishment.
Crunch. Crunch.
His head snapped backwards. Blood sprayed from his nose.
“Next time.”Crunch.“Pick a better employer!” Tobias roared, and drove his fist so hard into the bodyguard that his head rolled back and he slumped to the floor.
“T,” Nick called, sucking in deep breaths as he aimed his gun at the two remaining bodyguards.
Tobias didn’t answer, and he didn’t stop…until I called his name. “Tobias.”
His fist froze in mid-air, the knuckles dripping with blood as he turned that brutal gaze to me and it softened.
My hand with the knife trembled. He looked from me to the man I gripped around his neck and in an instant, he let the dying guard go. The male slumped to the tiled floor and didn’t move. Killion stiffened as Tobias stepped over the body and headed our way. “Ryth?”
“I’m okay,” I whispered, tearing my gaze from the bloodied mess that was once a man. “I’m okay.”
But Tobias didn’t take my word for it. He gripped my chin, sliding his bloody thumb along my jawline as he turned my head to the side, then lowered his gaze to the throbbing area left from Killion’s hold. There was a flare of rage, a promise of violence. “Did he do that?”
I swallowed hard, my hand trembling as I answered. “Yes.”
Killion flinched, paling as Tobias fixed that merciless stare on him.
“Uh-uh.” Nick shook his head as a bodyguard tensed, looking for an opportunity to make a move. “Don’t be fucking stupid.”
He seemed to think better of it, scowling before he glanced at Killion.
“The recording,” Caleb demanded, stepping around Nick to face Killion. “Where is it?”
“Recording?” the bastard snarled. “What fucking recording?”
Caleb’s jaw tensed and hate burned in his hazel eyes. He took a step closer as Tobias gave me a slow nod. “We’ll take it from here, princess.”
“We know you leaked it,” C growled. “All we want is the master copy, and every one you’ve made.”
Killion flinched as I stepped away and Tobias took my place. He glanced at Tobias, trying to shift away as he answered. “I don’t know what the fuck you’re taking about, Banks. But I can tell you right now, you’re in fucking deep shit.” He glanced at the unmoving mess on his perfectly tiled floor. “I’ll have your ass for this.”
“You don’t know about the recording?” Caleb repeated, his voice careful and controlled, and I’d never heard him so deadly.
