He had thirty minutes. Thirty fucking minutes to decide who lived and who died. The woman he built his life around, or the child he had yet to meet. No matter what he chose, he would lose a part of himself tonight.

Life was cruel, but Leonhardt already knew that. He had spent years cleaning up the city's filth, putting bullets through monsters who deserved worse. But right now, the real monster wasn't some lowlife criminal. It was the clock on the goddamn wall, ticking down like a fucking executioner, waiting for him to say the words that would bury part of his soul forever.

What if he made the wrong choice? What if he walked out of this room and spent the rest of his life haunted by it? No amount of power, no badge, no gun could fix this. He'd fought so many battles, won so many wars—but he couldn't fight this. And that scared the living hell out of him.
