NIKOLAI Pov

The car was already waiting at the curb. I got in without breaking stride, pulled the door shut, and sat back. The leather was cold. The city outside the tinted windows moved past in streaks of light and noise.

"Anything?" I said.

Drev's eyes found me in the rearview mirror. He had been with me for four years and had learned that I asked that question as a baseline, before anything else.

"A few things, sir. Nothing critical." He paused. "There have been calls, though, from the famil

    **Chapter 34** Back at the hideout, the air still smelled like sewer water, copper, and wet concrete. Silas groaned as Ara straightened his arm out, trying to work the spasm out of his shoulder. She rinsed a towel in a basin of lukewarm water, wrung it out, and pressed it against the bruise on his bicep. He flinched hard, jaw tight, biting down whatever sound wanted to come out of him. “Sorry,” she muttered, easing off the pressure a little. “It’s fine,” he said, though his voice said otherwise. “Keep going.” Daniel pulled up a crate and sat across from them, his face grim in the low light. “What else did you get out of those players, Silas? Did they know who put them there?” “They didn’t even know each other at first,” Silas said, wincing as she adjusted her grip. “Except a few—some cousins, a couple of brothers. NexMind grabbed them off the street, out of their apartments, off their jobs, wherever, and none of them knew why at the time. It wasn’t until they were all stu

    It took a full day to track down the engineer Dain had mentioned. The wait was brutal, as every tick of the clock felt like a hammer strike. Out in the city, small things kept shifting: security protocols changing, strange power grid flickers, all of it pointing to a system closing in on its final phase. Ara, Ronan, and Dain left for the outskirts early that morning in an unmarked car, trying to stay off the surveillance grid. Daniel and the twins stayed behind, still working every angle they had to get a signal off Silas’s wristband or catch anything coming down from the ship. Back at the safehouse, tension was fraying fast. Maksim leaned against the table, arms crossed, staring at the countdown on the wall display. “Three days,” he said, voice flat and bitter. “Less than two day until day eight, and we don’t even have a confirmed lead. We’re out of time.” Milana looked up from her console. “A little hope wouldn’t kill you, Maksim. Ara and Ronan have something solid. If Ramsd

    Arianna's Pov By the time I knew what was happening, Nikolai crossed the room in three tides, cornering me, my back hitting the wall with a full force, his left hand on my waist, the right one resting on my neck deliberately. His lips found mine like he had been hungry for this, and had waited

    Arianna's Pov I stared at him. A second passed, then another. The seconds stretched at the edges because my brain refused to process what it just heard."You're married," I said, not as a question, but to process what I had just heard."I'm aware."

    Arianna's Pov The first thing I noticed when I woke up that morning was Noah's breathing. It was wet and sounded like he was having difficulty breathing. I pressed my hand to his forehead, and the heat burning through my palm confirmed what I already feared. He was running a fever. "Mama." His
