It arrives like an exquisite threat. The cream-colored envelope, heavy in my hand, seems to whisper promises of elegance and exposure. I hold it up to the lamp, where the embossed gold lettering shimmers with too much allure. My fingers hesitate, absorbing the texture, imagining the risk. The courie

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 169

    “What is it?” he asks, and I hear the hope, the craving for victory. It mirrors my own, amplified by the late hour and the proximity of another hungry soul. I pivot the laptop so he can see. “It’s the dummy shell. Not just the primary—Derek’s got a whole stack of LLCs feeding into the same offshore

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 168

    He says this without looking at me, but the compliment hangs between us, warm and unambiguous. I snort, pretending to scan an expense log. “You came all this way for late nights with a cutthroat old lady like me?” He shakes his head, grin crooked. “You’re nothing like what I expected. Or anyone el

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 167

    I want to smile. I want to rip off his shirt, pin him to the desk, and show him exactly how apex predators negotiate. Instead, I reach for the pen. We both go for it at the same time. Our fingers tangle, knuckles brushing, and the shock is enough to make my pulse lurch. He doesn’t let go. I feel th

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 166

    The night collapses inward, one glass window at a time. By ten p.m., only a few hard cases remain illuminated in the towers across the city, each rectangle of light a self-congratulatory halo for the zealots who cannot—or will not—stop working. My own office floats above the silent grid, one lamp bu

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 165

    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,

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 10

    I let them watch me as I unfurl into motion, as I take my time, a tigress stretching beneath a lazy sun. The documents make a soft, lethal sound as they hit the glass, echoing back to fill the silence. These papers are my arsenal, my map to the battlefield I will carve from this sterile room. I ar

  • Howl for Justice    Chapter 9

    The air thrums with ambition, the kind that leaves marks like teeth on skin. I step into the boardroom, a half dozen pairs of eyes pulling toward me as if gravity's force has just shifted. The glass walls loom like a watchful sky, reflections doubling back on themselves, encasing us in a tower of ou

  • 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
