Chapter 142: Max

Saturday. Creed of Truth Sanctuary, Brazil.

MAX STOOD IN THE small cabin.

Where was Lumen?

Thomas had dismissed all of them promptly on their return. It had been as if he hadn't wanted them to see where the drugs and women were being held.

It was one thing to suspect what was going on, but a completely different thing to see it and be part of it. Max had a lot of reasons to loathe himself over the years, but this was the worst. The very worst.

He'd been counting on finding Lumen soon after he got back. He needed her to tell him to stay the course, they had a plan, because right now he wanted to burn the whole fucking thing down.

His phone vibrated.

Max pulled it out and looked at the screen, but all he saw was a generic message.

Which meant it wasn't a text or some other application.

It was the Aegis Group communication app.
