(QUINN'S POV)

Quinn's heart was pounding in his chest as he fought his way through the guards, barely able to keep his footing as he raced through the dim corridors. He had to get to her. He couldn't let Clint get away with this.

His hands shook as he pushed past another guard, knocking him to the ground. The panic in his chest was like wildfire, spreading with every second that ticked by.

He was getting closer, he could feel it. His thoughts kept circling back to Lila, her voice, her face, everything he needed to protect. He had to find her before it was too late.

When Quinn burst into the room, his eyes locked onto Clint and Lila. She was standing there, defiant and strong despite the fear in her eyes. Clint was leaning over her, too close, the tension in the air thick with anger.

"You've made a huge mistake, Clint," Quinn growled, his voice like gravel.

Clint turned, his face twisted in anger. "You think I'm afraid of you? You're too late."

Lila's eyes flicked between the two men, and in that moment, Quinn realized that everything he had feared was true, this was about more than just revenge. This was about everything Clint had lost and everything he was willing to destroy to get it back.
