" Without a word, Atreus unsheathed his broadsword in a single smooth motion and thrust it into Amadeo’s chest.  Amadeo’s eyes widened at the shock, the pain, the betrayal. As Jax reached him, he drove his sword in to the man’s back. Gored in the front and in the back, Amadeo collapsed to the floor in a heap.  "
