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.

His brows drew together slightly.

The moment he laid eyes on Oakley, a flicker of recognition passed through him- there was something disturbingly familiar about the man.

And then, just as sharply, he caught the look Oakley gave him. Cold, calculating... and burning with hate.

"Hand him over to me," Oakley said.

His gaze swept over Cassian's battered body, clearly at the end of its rope, and a greedy gleam sparked in his eyes.

He'd changed his mind.

Before, he'd assumed Rin had failed to kill Cassian because the man was too powerful-too dangerous to take alive. Oakley hadn't dared to make a move then. But now?

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.
