Wrath's Storm: A Masters' Admiralty Novel by Mari Carr (desktop ebook reader .txt) 📕

start making out. He sighed, then, in a more formal tone, declared, “You may kiss your bride and your groom.”

Epilogue

“You fucking fucker,” Oscar snarled.

Langston grinned. “Congratulations!”

“You fucking promised you’d join the Trinity Masters.”

Walt leaned back in the chair, laptop on his knees. A video call wasn’t how he’d imagined he would be telling his brothers he’d gotten married, but here they were.

“Well, technically I promised to join a cult.” Walt grinned. “I was planning to promise to join the Trinity Masters, but you opened your big mouth and cut me off. You said cult and I agreed, so I didn’t break my promise. By your standards, the Masters’ Admiralty is a cult too.”

“You fucking fuckface!” Oscar snarled.

Langston howled with laughter and Walt smiled gently—which he knew would only piss Oscar off more.

“Fucker! The Grand Master is going to be pissed at me. Somehow this will be my fucking fault.”

“Well, it is your fault,” Langston said cheerfully. “If you hadn’t said cult…”

“Fuck both of you. I hope your husbands fuck your butts without lube.”

“Hey now, that’s just rude,” Walt said.

“Wow, do we need to talk to Luca about anal etiquette?”

“Fucking hate you both so hard…”

“Two and two, probably better that the Trinity Masters and Masters’ Admiralty have a tie in the race for the Hayden siblings,” Langston said.

“Sad for the Trinity Masters that they got the two dumb ones.” Walt made a mock sad face.

“Wow, you gonna do me like that?” Langston demanded.

On screen, Walt could see Oscar thumping his head against the wall behind him.

“On a serious note, we all have to learn German now,” Walt said. “I’m not going to play translator when you come visit me.”

“I’m never visiting you because I’ll be dead, my body tossed into the fucking Boston Harbor like some shit tea,” Oscar snapped.

“Hold on, downloading Duolingo.” Langston was looking at his phone.

The door to the sitting room where Walt had come to make this call flew open. One of the Spartan Guard stormed into the room. “Come with me, we need to secure you and the other guests.”

“What?” Walt said, utterly confused.

“What’s going on?” Langston demanded.

“You better not die, you fucker,” Oscar snapped, but he was tense, his expression tight and worried.

“There’s been an attack. We may be the next target.” Keanu, the Spartan Guard, grabbed Walt by the arm, hauling him up.

“Attack.” Walt’s brain was taking a minute to catch up “Where are Jakob and Annalise?”

“Already secure. The dungeons of the castle are reinforced to prevent a cave-in if the building is bombed.”

“Bomb?” Oscar’s voice was tense with worry.

“Bomb?” Langston sounded worried, but also interested. “What kind of bomb?”

Keanu glanced at the laptop dangling from Walt’s hand, reached over, and snapped it closed on Walt’s thumb. Walt tossed the computer aside onto a chair as he was dragged out the door.

Walt caught sight of Eric as he was hustled down the spiral stairs to the basement…no, wait, dungeon. In a castle, it was definitely a dungeon.

“Eric!” Walt called out. “What’s going on?”

“Fucking weddings,” Eric snarled.

Then Walt was stumbling down spiral stone stairs after Keanu. Jakob and Annalise were there when they reached the bottom, Annalise throwing herself against his chest and hugging him tight.

“Stay here,” Keanu ordered.

“What’s happening?” Jakob demanded.

“Someone blew up the security minister of Castile’s wedding.”

“Assassination?” Jakob asked.

“Hopefully,” Keanu answered.

“I’m sorry…what?” Annalise asked.

“If it wasn’t an assassination attempt, it means the Bellator Dei are back.”
