Chapter 9 - The False Sanctuary
The entirely deafening, totally massive explosion completely echoed violently completely across the deeply frozen lake, heavily shaking the entire ice completely beneath our speeding tracks.
I actively looked entirely back completely through my highly bitter tears just in total time to completely see a massive, highly destructive pillar of completely freezing water and totally pure fire entirely erupt heavily into the entirely night sky.
The completely and totally heavily armored cartel snowmobiles plunged aggressively and entirely completely into the totally black, highly freezing depths, heavily swallowing the highly armed mercenaries and my completely brave uncle entirely forever.
I buried my totally crying face entirely completely into Silas's highly thick winter coat, completely and absolutely broken by the entirely immense sacrifice Vance had completely made entirely for us.
Silas completely did absolutely not entirely slow down or totally look completely back, his highly sharp jaw completely locked in entirely pure, incredibly driving total survival instinct.
We heavily rode totally frantically for exactly two completely agonizing, totally freezing hours directly through the completely treacherous, highly snowy mountain passes.
Finally, a completely heavily fortified, highly entirely modern heavy cabin entirely appeared completely through the completely blinding snowstorm.
It completely was entirely Silas's deeply private, totally off-the-grid highly secure safehouse, completely equipped entirely with completely thick bulletproof glass and incredibly massive steel doors.
Silas rapidly punched a entirely complex security code completely into the highly digital keypad, and the totally heavy metal door entirely hissed aggressively open.
We totally rushed entirely inside, completely collapsing heavily onto the highly warm, completely heated hardwood floor of the totally massive living room.
The completely safe cabin was entirely fully stocked completely with totally emergency medical supplies, endless warm food, and highly secure, completely encrypted communication lines.
Silas immediately wrapped entirely Maya and me completely in highly thick, totally heated thermal blankets completely while he entirely and quickly totally checked his fragile baby's completely resting vitals.
"Leo completely is perfectly totally fine, he completely is entirely just totally exhausted," Silas completely breathed out entirely in absolute total relief, heavily kissing his totally sleeping son's entirely warm forehead.
I totally sat quietly completely by the actively crackling warm fireplace, entirely feeding totally Maya a completely warm heavy bowl of completely rich chicken soup entirely as she totally finally completely stopped entirely shivering.
The entirely terrifying total nightmare completely seemed to finally totally be completely over, and we entirely had totally miraculously survived the completely impossible entirely terrifying ordeal.
Silas completely walked heavily over to the entirely heavy wooden dining table and completely opened a highly totally encrypted, military-grade heavy laptop.
"Give me the totally heavy silver drive completely, Riley, so I entirely can finally completely send this highly deadly kill list directly entirely to my totally federal contacts," Silas requested completely and totally gently.
I heavily reached carefully entirely into my completely frozen pocket and totally handed him the entirely heavy silver completely USB drive that completely had heavily cost my totally entire family absolutely everything.
Silas securely plugged it completely into the totally heavy laptop and completely typed quickly entirely in a totally highly complex completely series of entire bypass codes.
The completely glowing green totally long list of entirely scheduled assassination targets completely populated instantly entirely on the totally massive screen.
I completely expected Silas entirely to totally smile completely in victory, or totally perhaps sigh entirely in profoundly deep complete relief.
Instead, his highly handsome face completely turned entirely and totally pale, and his entirely strong hands completely began to heavily tremble violently completely over the totally glowing keyboard.
He completely stared at the entirely digital screen completely with an entirely total expression of completely pure, absolutely unadulterated total horror and heavily soul-crushing total betrayal.
"This completely deadly list entirely was absolutely not completely created entirely by the totally Russian syndicate," Silas completely whispered, his deep voice cracking entirely and completely.
He completely turned his heavy head entirely slowly totally to completely look directly entirely at completely me, his totally gray eyes entirely wide completely with absolute, entirely terrifying realization.
"The completely exact person who entirely ordered the totally brutal hit completely on your entire family, and the completely total mastermind who entirely planted the completely deadly tracker entirely on my entirely infant son, completely is the totally exact entirely same person."
Before I completely could entirely even total ask completely who entirely it absolutely was, the totally distinct, completely terrifying entirely heavy sound of a completely totally loaded pistol hammer entirely clicking heavily back entirely echoed completely loudly through the totally quiet cabin.
I completely turned entirely around slowly totally to entirely see Silas's completely beautiful, supposedly totally innocent entirely beautiful wife stepping completely entirely out of the cabin's totally dark entirely bedroom hallway.

She completely leveled the heavily suppressed total weapon entirely and directly completely at my entirely forehead totally with a completely cold, totally psychopathic entirely deadly smile completely on her totally perfect face.
"You entirely really completely should totally have entirely died completely on that totally destroyed plane completely with the entirely rest of the completely totally pathetic trash, little entirely girl," she totally sneered completely and heavily venomously.
