At that moment Lucas gritted his teeth as he struggled against the ropes.
He wasn't going to die here.
With a sharp, forceful pull, he freed himself.
Kai, still seated, glanced at him briefly but said nothing.
Lucas got to his feet—
But before he could even take a step, A gun clicked.
Cold metal pressed against his skull. One of the bank robbers had a pistol pointed directly at his head.
Immediately Lucas' heart pounded. His fingers twitched, reaching for a weapon that wasn't there.
The robber smirked, his finger moving to the trigger.
"Too bad, Agent."
Bang— Or at least, that's what should have happened.
Because in the blink of an eye,
Kai moved like lightning, Like a force of nature.
One second, he was tied to the chair.
The next, he launched himself forward, shoving Lucas out of the way.
Hard, Too hard.
At that moment Lucas crashed into a large metal container with brutal force.
The impact was violent. His body slammed against the steel with a sickening thud.
