The Wellington Mansion's Command Room
"They are coming at us from all angles." Marcus warned in panic, as his his fingers typed quickly on the keyboard. The multiple computer screens in the command room displayed Victor Crowe's men advancing on every angle of the estate.
"They have successfully breached the second gate," one of the guards reported through the walkie-talkie. "The east wing is under heavy fire!"
Aiden stood at the center of the room, radiating control despite the threat. "Marcus, divert power to the floodlights. I want those areas illuminated. If they are coming, we will ensure they are seen."
"Yes, sir." Marcus's hands moved fast, and within seconds, bright lights swept the property, leaking the positions of Crowe's men.
"They are using the shadows to their advantage," Marcus added. "The lights will force them to move more cautiously."
