Chapter: BETRAYAL“Move!”Nathaniel Cross pushed the access card against the scanner, and the heavy security door clicked open. He glanced over his shoulder before stepping into the narrow corridor, his medical bag hanging from one shoulder.Dr. Mira Voss followed first, with Dr. Elias Moretti close behind her. Samuel Adeyemi brought up the rear, still clutching the medical records they had managed to gather.“Where does this passage lead?” Mira whispered.“Somewhere we won't be expected to go,” Nathaniel replied.“That isn't an answer.”“It's the only one I have time to give you.”They hurried through the corridor, their shoes scraping against the concrete floor. The passage was poorly lit, with exposed pipes running along the ceiling and water dripping steadily from a damaged section of the wall. It smelled of dampness, rust and disinfectant.Nathaniel stopped at a junction and listened. Nothing, then he pointed towards the left passage. “This way. There's a service stairwell at the end. It connects

Chapter: THE PRICE OF DISAPPEARINGBlackthorne University had never witnessed such chaos. The raid had ended, but the fear it left behind was far from over. Students crowded the main entrance, parents rushed to the administration building, and university officials struggled to control the growing stampede as rumours spread that more people would be arrested. Several students who had been taken away during the raid were still missing, and nobody seemed willing to explain where they had been taken.Everywhere, one name kept coming up.Kaizen Arclair.Some students accused him of provoking the attack, others claimed he had been involved in something criminal, and a few insisted that the entire incident was connected to his family's underground dealings. His absence only made matters worse because the person everyone wanted to question was nowhere to be found."Where is he?" a student shouted outside the administration building. "If he's responsible for this, why is he hiding?""His girlfriend is missing too!" another rep

Chapter: RAIDThe following morning began like any other.Students entered through the university gates, security officers checked identification cards, and lecturers hurried towards their departments. Nobody expected the ordinary routine to collapse before noon.The first vehicle arrived without warning, then another. Within minutes, several dark vehicles had surrounded the main entrance. Men dressed in black stepped out, some carrying weapons, while others moved towards the administrative buildings.A security officer approached them."Excuse me, gentlemen. Can I help you?" Te man in front displayed an identification card."We're conducting an authorised search.""Authorised by whom?"The answer came in the form of a hard shove that sent the officer stumbling backwards."Clear the entrance."Students began retreating as the men spread across the campus. Doors were forced open, offices searched and security personnel ordered to surrender their access cards. Lectures were interrupted as frightened

Chapter: THE CAMPUS KING IS MISSINGTwo weeks. Fourteen days without Kaizen Arclair and Blackthorne University was beginning to lose its mind.At first, nobody had been particularly concerned. Kaizen had a reputation for disappearing whenever he pleased, skipping lectures, ignoring university events and making the administration look foolish without suffering any consequences. However, this time was different. His absence had stretched beyond the usual few days, and the girl who had apparently captured the attention of the campus king had vanished with him.Nyra Solenne was nowhere to be found either.By the second week, their disappearance had become the university's favourite subject.In the cafeteria, students leaned across tables to exchange theories. Some claimed Kaizen had taken Nyra on an expensive vacation, while others insisted that the two had been expelled secretly. A particularly dramatic rumour suggested that they had eloped."Eloped?" A girl at the next table burst into laughter. "Kaizen Arclair? That man

Chapter: PLOT“Before you? Two groups.”“And where are they now?” Nathaniel looked at him.“I don't know.”The answer was quiet, but it carried more weight than any threat. Samuel moved closer as he thought wildly, people can be really creepy though!!! staying in a locked room with a hole without making a noise?“Have you examined the records concerning Sylvara?”“Not directly. But I saw her name in a file that wasn't supposed to be here.”“What file?”Nathaniel hesitated.“A list of patients whose medical histories were altered.”Samuel's jaw tightened.“Why would anyone alter her medical history?”“That's what I wanted to know.”He rose slowly and approached the locked cabinet.“There's something else you need to understand. The people holding us are not all working for the same person.”Samuel frowned.“What do you mean?”“Some answer to the Chairman. Others answer to someone whose name they won't even say aloud. They share this facility because their interests overlap, not because they trust on

Chapter: The Doctor Behind The WallANONYMOUS HAS REQUESTED THE DOCTORS' LOCATION.The guard standing outside the holding room read it twice before slipping his phone into his pocket. He looked through the narrow viewing slot, his gaze settling on the three doctors inside.They were awake.Dr. Mira Voss sat beside the wall, examining the bruises around her wrists. Dr. Elias Moretti was attempting to stretch his stiff legs, while Samuel stood near the door, pretending not to watch the guard.The man hesitated before speaking into his radio.“Keep them where they are. Nobody enters or leaves until I receive further instructions.”Samuel caught the words and his expression changed.“Something happened,” he whispered.Mira looked up. “What?”“I don't know yet, but they're becoming nervous.”Elias gave a tired laugh. “Wonderful. Perhaps they've finally realized kidnapping three doctors wasn't their brightest decision.”Before Mira could respond, a strange sound came from behind the wall.Three knocks. Then a brief pause and

Chapter: Sneaky MovesThe café was half empty and quiet enough that our voices did not have to rise. I sat across from Richard with a cup of untouched tea between my hands while outside the window the city moved on, unaware of the strange truce happening at the corner table. He did not push. He did not bring up marriage, the board, or Adrian. He asked simple questions and let the silences stay when they came.It should have felt false. Parts of it still did. But there were stretches of minutes where the conversation became almost easy, and that unsettled me more than open conflict. This was the danger. Not his anger. Not his father’s pressure. This softer version of him that made me remember why I had once loved him, even while the memory of my death stayed fixed in my mind.I watched his hands around his cup more than I watched his face. In the first life those same hands had held mine through hospital nights while poison moved through my blood. Now they were still, open, unthreatening. The contrast made

Chapter: Out of the line I waited until there was total quietness before I called him, standing by the window in my room with the phone in my hand and the evening still sitting heavy in my chest because Richard had shut his father down in front of the board, cleanly and in public, and I needed to know why. I did not need any more fake and obvious care.He answered on the second ring.“Lisa.”“Why did you do it?” I asked with no greeting and no softness. “Why did you stop him?”There was a short silence on the line before he said, “Because he was out of line.”“That’s not enough.”“It’s the truth.” His voice stayed steady. “He doesn’t get to talk about you like that in a room full of people who are already waiting for you to fail, and I wasn’t going to sit there and let it happen.”I closed my eyes as the answer pulled at something I had been trying to keep buried, because it should have left me cold and instead it reached into the same place that still remembered the soft version of him from a life that ha

Chapter: The TruceThe temporary administrator called it practical but her mother called it the only choice left.With less than three months until Lisa’s birthday, the board was restless again. The scandal still clung to her name. The restrictions still sat on the company. The message that reached the estate was simple: a public thaw between Lisa and Richard would calm the investors long enough to reach the transfer date without another legal attack.Lisa sat at the long dining table while her mother spoke in the tight voice she now used for everything.“You will attend the quarterly reception together. You will arrive at the same time. You will not argue in public. You will give them nothing new to write.” Her mother held her eyes. “I don’t care what you feel. I care that the company still exists when you turn the age they keep using against you.”“You’re asking me to stand beside the man whose family is trying to take everything from me.”“I’m asking you to survive the next three months,” her mother

Chapter: Loyalty Maria waited until the house had gone still. She found Lisa in the study long after midnight, the only light coming from the desk lamp and the cold glow of a laptop screen still open to the same damaging posts from the morning. The headlines had multiplied, Unstable. Reckless. It's just a few months to her eighteenth birthday , here she was already feeling like a wasted soul. The Loneria heiress and her late-night visits. Lisa did not look up when the door opened. She only spoke once Maria had closed it behind her.“If this is about my mother, I’m done listening for tonight.”“It’s not about your mother.” Maria’s voice was quiet, steady, the same tone she had used for years when something in the household needed to be handled without noise. She stepped closer to the desk but did not sit. “It’s about Hensley.”That made Lisa look up.Maria folded her hands in front of her apron. “This afternoon I overheard him on a call in the service corridor. He was reporting your movements. The o

Chapter: SLY from within. The house had settled into one of those rare quiet afternoons where everyone seemed to return to the things that belonged to them.Lisa had gone back to the music room. She did not play for long, only enough to let her hands rest on the keys and remember what it felt like to make a sound that was not an argument or a defense. The scandal still sat over the estate like low weather, but for a little while she let herself stay inside the melody and nowhere else.Elsewhere in the city, Richard was doing what he had always done best. A short, carefully worded comment had already circulated that morning. He looked composed in the accompanying photograph, the picture of restrained concern. He did not attack her. He simply allowed the silence around her name to grow heavier.Claire, true to herself, had accepted a lunch invitation with two board wives and spent the hour being warm, attentive, and gently worried about “poor Lisa.” She never said anything sharp. She only listened well and let

Chapter: Public ScandalBy morning the story was already moving.I first saw it on a secondary business forum, then in a cluster of anonymous posts that spread faster than any official statement could contain. The heiress under court restriction. The late-night visits to the Croft building. The implication that the unstable Loneria girl had thrown herself at Adrian Croft while still publicly tied to the Hale name. No photographs. No hard proof. Just enough detail to make the rumor feel true.Someone had talked.I sat in the study with the same dull ache behind my eyes that always came with bad news and tried to understand how private hours had become public currency so quickly. Richard had known. That much was clear from the way he had thrown the accusation at me the night before. But the leap from his mouth to the open web meant either he had not kept it to himself or someone else in that room had decided the information was useful.The door opened without a knock.My mother stood there holding her phone, f
