Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 1550

Kiran stepped up to Kena, pressing the gun barrel against her jaw. "Do I really have to lay it all out for you? The real core member of The Silent Shadows isn’t that old geezer Daniel—it's you."

Kiran had figured out Kena's true identity some time ago. She might have been a master of disguise, but she couldn’t fool Kiran, who was just as entrenched in The Silent Shadows as she was.

"I remember it was about ten years ago when I first met you," Kiran said, tapping Kena's left cheek with the gun. "I never forget a face. You were that old guy’s goddaughter. You’re the one who called yourself the 'Mistress of Disguise,' right? If people found out who you really are, what do you think would happen to you?"

Kena’s initially icy and innocent expression shifted slightly, a sly smile forming at the corner of her mouth. "Kiran, you shouldn't have messed with me. You’re out of line."

"All I want to know is, where's my sister?" Kiran demanded, finally pointing the gun at Kena’s chest. "I'm not a patient man. I’ve already killed plenty today, and one more won’t make a difference."

"If you kill me, The Silent Shadows won't let you off easy. You know what happens to those who cross them," Kena said, her smile widening. "Even though you're high up in the Pollard family, you know their days are numbered. Nothing lasts forever. Before you act against me, think about your family, think about your future. I bet you'll make the right choice. You wouldn’t want all your hard work to go down the drain, right?"

Kiran’s grip on the gun slackened for a moment, clearly shaken by her words.

Kena’s sharp eyes caught Kiran's hesitation. She reached out, guiding his gun toward the Gibbs family’s servants across the room. "Honestly, I have no idea where your sister is. But since you’ve outed me, you owe me a favor. Take care of this little problem for me."
