Yet, in that moment, none of it seemed to matter. Not in the face of the profound anger and need to destroy Samuel Madison. In his eyes, there is no blood when a line has been crossed.

With cold and unfeeling eyes, Richard reached for his phone, his fingers tapping out a familiar number with practiced ease.
