Chapter 468 Raven Has Arrived

With a deep, bone-jarring thud, the door to Cassian's lab was kicked open from the outside.

Cassian, slumped against the wall, slowly lifted his head. Through the doorway, he saw Rin and Thorian striding in.

Cassian was barely clinging to life. To Oakley, he looked no more threatening than an ant under his heel.

And if he could capture him alive, he could use him as leverage. With Cassian in chains, Raven would have no choice but to surrender her authority over the Vyrdenia military.
