Revenge is best served cold novel Chapter 1580

Listening to Sophie, the tension in the air grew thicker by the second.

Sophie? Breaking ribs? Cutting off fingers?

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on!"

Robert, who wasn't exactly the bravest soul, jumped in as soon as he grasped what these folks were planning for Spencer. "Come on, man, say something! The Silent Shadows aren't your mom and dad. When things have hit the fan, have they ever really been there for us? Don't be a fool! It's your life that's on the line!"

Sophie knew boys their age often fantasized about being the heroes of the world.

But really, how many heroes does the world need?

When you're staring down the barrel of life and death, your body kicks into gear long before your brain does.

Clenching his jaw, Spencer shot back, "The Silent Shadows is a noble church poised to push humanity forward! I'll never turn my back on my beliefs!"

"Sophie, you're wasting your breath on this kid. His head's completely twisted!" Jenna's frustration was palpable.

It was like watching a starry-eyed teenager wave around the enemy's flag, chanting about world peace.
