In the days following the brutal attack, the hotel was a flurry of activity. Repairs were underway, and the residents banded together, their resolve stronger than ever. Husk was recovering from his injuries, confined to bed rest for the time being. Angel rarely left his side, the trauma of nearly losing him still fresh in his mind.

One afternoon, Angel sat by Husk’s bed, holding his hand while he slept. He traced the lines of Husk’s face, memorizing every detail, thankful that they had survived another day. His mind drifted to thoughts of revenge and protection. He couldn't bear the thought of living in constant fear.

Charlie entered the room quietly, her usual brightness dimmed by the weight of recent events. She sat down next to Angel, offering a gentle smile. “How’s he doing?”

“He’s tough,” Angel replied, his voice tinged with both admiration and worry. “He’ll pull through. But I can’t stand seeing him like this.”

Charlie nodded, her expression serious. “We need to find a way to end this. For good.”

Angel met her gaze, determination hardening his features. “I want to go after them, Charlie. We need to take the fight to them. They can’t keep doing this.”

Charlie took a deep breath, considering his words. “I’ve been thinking the same thing. But we need to be smart about it. We can’t just rush in without a plan.”

Angel’s eyes lit up with a fierce resolve. “Then let’s come up with a plan. We have to protect our home and everyone in it.”

Over the next few days, they gathered their closest allies: Vaggie, Cherri Bomb, Alastor, and a few others who had proven their loyalty and strength. Together, they formulated a strategy to strike back at the rival gang, aiming to dismantle their operations and neutralize the threat once and for all.

As they planned, Angel and Husk found moments of solace in each other’s company. They spoke about their future, about the life they wanted to build together once this nightmare was over. Those conversations gave them hope, a beacon of light in the darkness.

One night, as Angel lay beside Husk, he felt a pang of fear. “What if something goes wrong, Husk? What if we don’t make it?”

Husk turned to face him, his eyes filled with unwavering love. “We will make it, Angel. Because we have to. We’ve been through hell and back, and we’re still here. We’ll face whatever comes next together.”

Angel nodded, drawing strength from Husk’s words. “I love you so much.”

“I love you too, Angel. Always.”

The day of the attack arrived, and the group moved with a calculated precision. They infiltrated the rival gang’s hideout, their hearts pounding with adrenaline and fear. The battle was fierce, but they fought with a desperation born of love and survival.

Angel and Husk fought side by side, their movements synchronized, their bond unbreakable. The enemy fell before them, their defenses crumbling under the weight of the hotel’s united front.

As they reached the gang’s leader, a sinister figure who had orchestrated the attacks, Angel felt a surge of rage. “This is for everything you’ve done,” he growled, his voice shaking with emotion.

The leader sneered, but before he could respond, Husk stepped forward, his eyes blazing. “And this is for trying to take away the people we love.”

Together, they overpowered him, ending the threat that had loomed over them for so long. As the dust settled and the last of the gang was subdued, a heavy silence fell over the scene.

The group stood together, bruised and battered but victorious. Angel turned to Husk, a mixture of relief and exhaustion washing over him. “We did it.”

Husk smiled, pulling Angel into a tight embrace. “We did. It’s finally over.”

They returned to the hotel as heroes, greeted by cheers and tears of joy. The sense of relief was palpable, the weight of fear lifted from their shoulders. Repairs resumed, and the hotel slowly began to return to its former glory.

In the weeks that followed, life settled into a new normal. The bond between Angel and Husk grew even stronger, their love tested and proven unbreakable. They knew that challenges would come and go, but as long as they had each other, they could face anything.

One evening, as the sun set over the city, casting a warm glow over the hotel, Angel and Husk stood on the rooftop, holding hands and watching the horizon. The future stretched out before them, filled with endless possibilities.

“We’ve been through a lot,” Angel said softly, his gaze fixed on the setting sun. “But we’re still standing.”

Husk nodded, squeezing Angel’s hand. “And we always will be. Together.”

As they stood there, side by side, they knew that no matter what lay ahead, their love would be their guiding light, a beacon of hope in the darkest of times. And with that love, they would continue to build the life they had always dreamed of, one filled with happiness, resilience, and unbreakable unity.
