The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never

Yes, sir.

At that moment, the man in the fox mask spoke up.

Master, Rabbit has had his chance.

Maybe its time for a different approach.

Let me try this time.

Can you handle it? Peterson raised an eyebrow, intrigued by the fox masked mans confidence.

The fox masked man grinned, assured.

I have my methods.

You wont be disappointed, Master.

Peterson nodded slightly, seemingly satisfied with the response.

Okay, you handle it.

And Rabbit, you assist him.

Remember, I want them back alive.

Dont mess this up. The rabbit masked man nodded silently in acknowledgment.

The tension in the ward lessened somewhat.

At that moment, the nurse gently said, Master, your health… Peterson dismissed her with a wave of his hand, a trace of sternness in his eyes.

Im well aware of my condition.

How can I rest when these individuals remain at large? Leave me.noveldrama

I need to be alone.

Yes, sir.

Meanwhile, across the city, Hannah and Conor had returned to their safe house.

The mood inside was grim and charged.

Several of Conors trusted aides sat around, awaiting their return.

Hows it going? Conor asked immediately upon entering.

A woman with short hair and piercing eyes stood up.

She was one of Conors reliable aides, Aileen.

Twilight Dimness has beefed up security.

Whatever happened last night has them spooked.

Plus, our sources spotted an unknown group snooping around, likely targeting Miss Moore and Mr.

Lyons.

Upon hearing this, Hannahs brow furrowed.

Theyre moving quicker than anticipated.

Conor, have you been able to reach Bryson? Conor pulled out his phone and dialed Brysons number again.

After several attempts with no response, his expression darkened.

I cant get through to him.

Im not sure if hes run into trouble.

What should we do now? Aileen asked, looking around as a sense of unease settled over the group.

Hannah considered for a moment.

Hes probably inside Twilight Dimness, and its too risky for him to answer.

My own communications might be monitored. Contacting him now would only expose us.

Hannah glanced at Conor and said, Ill need your help later.

Understanding her concern, Conor reassured her, Dont worry, Miss Moore.

You and Mr.

Lyons are in this together now.

Ill make sure we get through this.

And… Glancing at Aileen and the others, Hannah said, Its not safe for my people to be involved right now.

Your trusted subordinates will need to assist me.

Conor nodded in understanding.

Understood.

Your team is likely under surveillance, and my people havent been logged.

Their identities are still off the radar.

Hannah acknowledged with a nod.

Okay.
