"Alright, just give me a moment to get ready," she said, stepping out of the car and opening the trunk.
She started changing into her Power Armor, first taking off her jacket .
As she moved, she slipped out of her top undershirt.
"What are you doing?" Reign exclaimed, noticing her taking off her top and revealing a glimpse of her bra.
His face turned red, and he felt an unexpected reaction in his bottom part. Continue reading at empire
"What do you mean?" she asked, puzzled. She was only wearing a sports bra and shorts , similar to gym wear, and didn't see the problem.
He quickly turned his head, scratching his head and muttering to himself. 'What the hell is wrong with me? Why did I even react like that?'
He tried to focus on the warehouse, but his mind kept wandering back to the sexy scene.
The awkwardness was almost unbearable. 'Just... focus on the mission,' he said, trying to calm himself down.
She noticed his discomfort and raised an eyebrow. "You're acting weird. Are you okay?"
Reign cleared his throat, still not looking at her. "Yeah, I'm fine. Just... not used to seeing this kind of thing in a mission setup."
She shrugged, still not fully understanding his reaction. "Well, this is my Power Armor. It's practical for combat. Anyway, let's get this done."
She finished changing , a sleek, form-fitting outfit designed for protection and agility.
Reign, still trying to shake off his awkwardness, finally managed to turn around.
The suit was a deep dark green, matching her usual colors, with black accents along the seams that gave it a high-tech look.
It had padded sections at the shoulders and knees for extra protection, and a utility belt with various gadgets strapped around her waist.
The suit's material looked both flexible and durable, allowing her to move quickly while offering solid defense.
"Let get this over with, " he sighed and got out of the car.
"Where's your powersuit?" she asked, realizing she hadn't mentioned it before.
Reign gave her a sideways glance "I don't need one," he said casually. "I've got other ways to get things done."
She raised an eyebrow, clearly intrigued but also slightly concerned. "Seriously? You don't need any protection or gear?"
Still, doubt lingered in her mind. His abilities were too extraordinary for a divergent .
'Or maybe I'm just used to seeing weak divergents? Maybe I can still get stronger if I learn from him,' she pondered.
"What are you spacing out for?" Reign asked, seeing her stunned expression.
Snapping out of her thoughts, she replied, "I'm coming,"
But before she could move, the alarm blared and heavy footsteps echoed through the warehouse.
Drawing her dagger quickly, she scanned for cover to avoid the incoming fire.
She assumed Reign would do the same, but she nearly cursed out loud when she saw him casually walking toward the approaching guards as if he were strolling through a park.
"What are you doing?" she shouted, alarmed.
But he didn't respond.
He just ignored her, rolled his neck, and got ready for the fight, as if he didn't have a care in the world.
As soon as they saw the two dead bodies, the guards began firing.
RATAAATT—RATTATTT!
RATAAATT—RATTATTT!
RATAAATT—RATTATTT!
Bullets zipped past him, but he moved quickly, zigzagging to dodge the shots .
BANG! BANG BANG!
Three shots echoed through the air, this time from Green Viper, who had drawn her pistol to provide cover.
Though her intervention was unnecessary, Reign ignored her and continued closing the gap.
When he reached his targets, he began killing them with a single blow each.
Though he now had the body of an angel, his old fighting style remained his preferred method.
Meanwhile, inside the warehouse.
"What's that noise?" a figure, more beast than human, growled.
