“I know what you’re doing,” she whispers, barely audible over the hum of the building. “I won’t tell anyone.”

There’s an instant when everything inside me wants to devour her—her loyalty, her cleverness, the way she sees me without judgment—but I hold back. Instead, I flip open the file.

    I scan the first doc. It’s a technical breakdown, all transactional jargon and references to shell corporations. But in the top margin, in Derek’s unmistakable handwriting, is a note: “Final movement, Zurich, window closes 72h post-trigger. No margin for error.” I hand the page to Lucas, then move

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 164

    Lucas works the other angle, seated with one long leg propped on an adjacent chair, his body language a thesis on nonchalance. But I know better: his left hand tightens on the pen with each new document, tendons flexing in a rhythm that betrays a deeper focus. He reads and annotates like a machine,

    He smiles, but there’s no warmth in it. “She handled the Kovacs bankruptcy. If she survived that media storm, ours will be a vacation.” I push back from the desk and rise, stretching my spine until it pops, vertebrae by vertebrae. “I want a trace on every communication between Derek and Reynolds, a

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 162

    Lucas pushes off from the bookshelf and walks into the lamp’s periphery. He carries a battered notebook, the kind with a leather strap and torn corners. “I spoke with my contact in Geneva,” he says, opening the notebook with the careful reverence of a priest handling sacrament. “If Derek’s moving as

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 161

    After midnight, the city turns on itself. Glass towers shed their daylight brilliance and sprawl into a thousand black panes, each one a cold mirror for the violence beneath. My office is a floating cell above this expanse, nothing but the pulse of my desk lamp and the scratch of rain against the wi

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 8

    I gather the pieces of myself and leave the office. My own intentions are as fractured as his. I cannot think straight with the scent of him so fresh, so insistent, so much like a promise. The door swings shut behind me, cutting off the warmth and memory of Derek's presence with surgical precision

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 7

    I stiffen, a snarl forming at the back of my throat, before I manage to smooth it into something more civil, more human. This is not what I expected, not what I am prepared for. I should have known. I should have known he'd come. "Mara," his voice drawls, easy and confident, but I hear the challeng

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 6

    The lock clicks behind me as I slip into the office. I am the wolf, even in tailored business attire. Even with it all wrapped up so tight. The edge of my existence cuts deep. The aftertaste of the night clings to my senses, a raw, metallic tang that I cannot swallow away. My steps falter, then re

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 5

    There is a freedom in it, a temptation that digs claws deep into my resolve and leaves it ragged and bleeding.
