Chapter 13 - Siege at Headquarters

The towering glass monolith of the Moretti Global Headquarters gleamed coldly under the midday sun, surrounded by private security forces loyal to Elena’s regime. Jax’s heavy motorcycle roared up to the front plaza, flanked by a convoy of unmarked vans carrying a loyal faction of underground operatives recruited by Jax over years of alliance. Moretti kicked open the front glass doors, walking into the grand lobby with cold fury in his eyes, while security guards rushed forward only to be neutralized by non-lethal precision tactics. They stormed the private elevator shaft, bypassing the digital lockdown by using an override code recovered from Victor’s encrypted drive. As the elevator ascended toward the penthouse suite where Elena waited, the tension inside the small cabin felt thick enough to cut with a knife. Moretti checked the magazine of his sidearm one last time, knowing that the ultimate confrontation with the mastermind of his family’s destruction was only floors away.
