Chapter: Chapter 6𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 6 •The backup agents had already slipped through the open door when they reached us. Two of them took Miguel gently by the arms and lifted him toward the corridor. I rose to my feet and met his eyes; for a heartbeat the lab fell away and it was just the two of us. I gave him a small, steadying nod and an assuring smile.Miguel returned the smile, then surprised me by wriggling free of the agent’s grip and running into my arms. He hugged my waist with the fierce, unselfconscious relief of a child who had been lost and then found. I kept my face composed, though my chest tightened. I ruffled his hair with a fingertip; he looked up at me, earnest and exhausted. “Thank you,” he said, voice thin but sincere, before letting go and falling back into the agent’s hand.Agent Quatro entered then, his grin broad and unapologetic. “That was a good job for us!” he crowed. I rolled my eyes. “Where are Agents Dos and Singko?” I asked.They came in together, uniforms streaked with grim

Chapter: Chapter 5𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 5 •The warehouse air was thick with dust and tension. My boots echoed against the concrete as I strode quickly into the front area, katana strapped tight against my back.“Uno, there are two approaching at the front,” Quatro’s voice cut through the static of the comms.I adjusted the grip on my weapon, but before steel could sing, the shadows moved. Two men emerged, their eyes locked on me, their movements coordinated like predators circling prey.They didn’t waste time. The first lunged, fists flying in a flurry of strikes. I blocked, parried, countered—my arms moving with trained precision. But the second man was already behind me, his elbow driving toward my ribs. The impact forced me to stumble, the taste of iron sharp in my mouth.They pressed together, a relentless rhythm of fists, knees, and kicks. I fought back, each strike calculated, each dodge razor-thin. Yet their teamwork was suffocating, their rhythm designed to overwhelm.One man’s blade flashed in the d

Chapter: Chapter 4𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 4 •My uncle’s office was dim, the only light spilling from the lamp that cast long shadows across the maps and dossiers scattered on his desk. His presence was commanding, the kind that silenced even the restless air.“Alpha Team,” he began, his voice carrying the weight of iron. “We’ve intercepted intel. Children are being abducted. The syndicate is harvesting their organs for the black market.”The words struck like a blade. My chest tightened. I felt Sabina stiffen beside me, her usual grin gone, replaced by a grim line. Quatro’s fists clenched, and Khalil’s eyes flickered with unease.We always had missions—most of them life and death. But when the mission was about children, something in us shifted. We became different. Sharper. Colder. Because innocence stolen was a crime that burned deeper than any battlefield wound.My uncle’s gaze swept across us, sharp and unyielding. “I know you are all still training and just starting out again. But I need your team on this

Chapter: Chapter 3𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 3 •"You look absolutely terrible today," Sabina teased, a sly grin tugging at the corner of her lips as I turned my head to the right. Her eyes sparkled like mischief itself.I rolled mine in return and raised an eyebrow. "Thanks," I muttered dryly.Truth was, I hadn't slept in days. My thoughts had been clawing through the shadows of my grandfather’s murder case, even as my muscles screamed from constant training. Sleep had become a distant ghost—just out of reach, I barely remembered.“Uno, you should rest,” she said gently, her voice a contrast to her earlier jab. “Sleep, even just for a while.”“I’m fine,” I replied, though the lie tasted like rust on my tongue.I shifted my gaze toward the field, where Quatro, Singko, and Sais were already sprinting. Their feet pounded the dirt like war drums. They moved as one, shadows split from the same flame. We had all been preparing for this—the return of the missions. And now that we were officially back in the line of fire,

Chapter: Chapter 2I pulled my Aventador Lp 780-4 Ultimae to a stop in front of the N.S.A headquarters. The engine whispered to a hush, but my thoughts roared louder than ever. It had been years since I'd stood on this sacred, storm-touched ground—this place that shaped me and scarred me.The main building loomed like a forgotten palace, tall and proud, cloaked in its old glory. Behind it, the dorms rose with ancient columns and watchful statues, like silent sentinels still guarding memories left behind. Around it all, vast gyms, fields, and training centers spread out like war camps built to sharpen both body and soul.It was breathtaking—the land of my making, and sometimes, my undoing. A battlefield and a sanctuary. A place I once ran from but never truly left behind.Now that I’m here again, every corner whispers stories I thought I’d buried. I didn’t expect to feel it, but I do—I missed this place. And more than that, I missed him—my grandfather. As I walked towards the main building's door, my foo

Chapter: Chapter 1Looking back at my happiest memories feels like running fingers over old scars—some smooth and faded, others still raw. I once believed memories were like stars: distant, beautiful, untouchable. But I was wrong. Memories are bullets. Some just whistle past, leaving only echoes of fear. Others pierce clean through you, leaving you bleeding in silence.“Condolence, Anastasia.”“Anastasia, I’m so sorry for your loss.”“I’m sorry, truly.”I heard their voices all around me, but they sounded like a broken radio—faint, crackling, meaningless. I nodded out of habit, not because I understood. My eyes stayed glued to the casket, to the stillness that used to be my grandfather. My world felt like a glass vase tipped over in slow motion—falling, shattering, crumbling beneath the weight of my sorrow. “Anastasia? Can we talk for a moment?” Fayre sat beside me, her voice sounded soft but steady. I turned to her with empty eyes.“Sure,” I replied, though I wasn’t really there. “Your grandfather wants
