Unloved Unwanted Unstoppable (Seraphina and Dominic) novel Chapter 345

Panic seized Seraphina's chest, but she ruthlessly shoved it down.

"That's an easy fix."

She glanced at the tactical gear resting near his feet and held out a hand. "Let me borrow your toolkit."

Gideon stepped aside without a word, leading her behind the wall to their tech stash.

Seraphina leaned her crutches against the stone and went to work, her fingers flying over wires and circuit boards with practiced precision.

As a leading hardware developer, frying a proximity scanner was like child's play to her.

Minutes later, she straightened up, holding a device the size of a remote control.

"Done."

She handed it to Gideon. "Aim this at the scanner out front. Once you hit the trigger, it'll overload their core module."

He took it, testing its weight, his eyes gleaming with deep admiration.

With the final obstacle handled, the team swiftly moved into position.

The sniper on the eastern flank squeezed the trigger.

A muffled thwip echoed, and the eastern guard dropped instantly.

Another silenced shot neutralized the western sentry.

Seraphina took a sharp breath and slammed her thumb onto the custom trigger.

Out front, the high-precision scanner's screen went dead black. A wisp of smoke curled from its chassis as its circuits completely fried.

Gideon gave her a nod and flashed a hand signal to his men.

The tactical unit surged from the shadows, rapidly converging on the cabin.

In mere seconds, they had the entire structure surrounded.

The heavy metal door was kicked off its hinges just as the side windows shattered inward.

Gideon's men flooded the room.

Inside, a guard scrambled to react, reaching for his sidearm.

Before he could even aim, a suppressed shot dropped him to the floor.
