Chapter 444: The Rescue

Levi’s POV

We sat around the big table and tried to think fast.

"I marked Olivia so I could track her no matter where they took her," Frederick said. His voice was rough. "All we need is to get our men and silently attack."

I looked at him. Then I looked at my brothers.

That sounded simple. It was not.

My head was racing. My hands felt cold. I had to be calm. I breathed slowly.

"We can’t just rush in," I said. My voice was quiet but filled with panic. "They have collars that stop powers. They have a bomb on Selene. If we run in angry, they will kill them both."

Lennox slammed his fist and shouted. Louis wanted to go now. I understood them. But we needed a plan that wouldn’t get Olivia or Selene hurt more.

"I’ll do tech," I said. "I’ll jam their cameras and block their radios so we get in without them calling for more men. I can make a thirty-second blackout. That’s our window."

Luckily, my skills could be put to use tonight.

Louis nodded. "I’ll do the locks and the loud part. I’ll blow the bolts so the doors open."

Lennox glared at me but then said, "I go for Olivia. I get her out."

Frederick sighed but agreed. "I’ll lead us to them."

"We move quietly," I said. "Levi and Levi only for tech inside. Louis with explosives at the back gate. Lennox goes straight to the hostages. Frederick will be the distraction — the boss walking in. We do the blackout, we get in, we get them out."

The clock on the wall stared at us. Time was slipping. It was past midnight, and according to Frederick, they were being held hostage in a warehouse almost three hours from here — but I doubted they would still be there. They must have moved them.
