The estate lights cut through the drizzle as the SUV rolled up the gravel drive. William stepped out first, scanning the tree line out of habit. Adrian followed, scanning in the opposite direction, his hand still near his holster. Sofia shut the engine off but stayed seated for a moment, her breath fogging the window. The hum of adrenaline hadn’t left her body yet.

William rounded the hood, opening her door himself. “You’re not going back out tonight.”

She blinked at him through the rain. “Sir, I have an apartment—”

“You’ll stay here,” he said, final. “Adrian will see that you’re settled. We don’t know if they followed us.”

Adrian gave a short nod. “I’ll take care of it.” He gestured toward the side entrance and Sofia followed, glancing only once at William before disappearing inside.

William stayed out in the rain for another beat, letting the cool drops run over his face. His mind replayed the pier—the sudden attack, the decoy’s terrified eyes, Sofia’s unexpected arrival. He hated u

    The safehouse was quiet except for the hum of Adrian’s laptop and the faint rustle of papers as Lily sifted through the stolen documents. Dusty light from a single lamp pooled over the table, catching the determination in her eyes.William leaned against the far wall, arms crossed, watching them work. He was still streaked with grime from the fight, but his mind was already moving to the next step.Adrian tapped a key, scanning through the decrypted files. “These shipment logs… they tie directly to off‑shore accounts. Sir, this is enough to expose half his operations.”Lily pushed another folder toward him. “Cross‑check these names. Some match with the employee list from Sunflower Company—people who vanished months ago.”Adrian glanced at her, surprised. “You’ve been digging into this for a while, haven’t you?”She didn’t look up. “Since the day I realized Leonard wasn’t just a name on William’s lips. Someone had to start connecting the dots.”William’s voice came from the corner, low

    The night pressed heavy over the industrial district. Rusted hulks of abandoned machines loomed like forgotten giants, the wind carrying the acrid scent of oil and dust. From their vantage point atop a crumbling overpass, William studied the road below through a scope.“Convoy in two minutes,” Adrian murmured beside him, his tone calm but sharp with focus. He adjusted the comm in his ear. “Sir, four trucks. Two lead security jeeps. Tail vehicle looks armored.”Lily crouched on the other side, the glow of a tablet lighting her determined features. “Look here,” she whispered, pointing at a digital map. “The road dips by that silo—guard visibility drops for six seconds there. If you move then, they won’t see until you’re already on them.”William glanced at her, a flicker of approval passing through his eyes. “Good work.”Adrian smirked faintly. “She’s learning fast, Sir.”“She’s always been fast,” William replied, his voice low.Headlights appeared in the distance—a line of moving shado

    Natasha’s finger tightened on the trigger. Her wild eyes flicked between William and Lily, her breathing ragged in the shadows of the containers.“You don’t get it,” Natasha whispered, her voice trembling. “He saved me. He gave me hope. And then you showed up—”Lily straightened from behind William, stepping slightly forward despite the gun aimed at her. Her own voice was steady, raw.“And you lied,” she said. “That night at his house—you looked me in the eye and told me I was nothing to him. That he was yours. I left my college, my future, because I believed you.”Natasha’s jaw clenched, tears streaking down her face as rage flared. “Because it’s true! It was supposed to be me!”William’s voice cut through, low and sharp. “Natasha, stop. Whatever happened, this isn’t the way.”But Lily didn’t stop. She took another step. “You can’t keep blaming me for what William chose. He never loved you.”The words struck like a blade. Natasha let out a strangled cry and lunged, knocking the pisto

    The night seemed to hold its breath. Beyond the warehouse’s shadow, the pier bustled with covert activity—men unloading heavy crates with silent efficiency, their movements rehearsed. The distant churn of the ship’s engine rumbled like a predator beneath the surface.William crouched low behind a concrete barrier, scanning the scene through a compact scope. “Three guards at the far end,” he murmured into the comm. “Two more on patrol, circling clockwise. Adrian?”Adrian’s voice answered softly in his earpiece, “I’m at the north side. One straggler broke off the patrol—he’s heading your way.”William tensed. “Handle it. Quietly.”Lily crouched beside William, clutching her camera. Her eyes flicked to a crate being rolled off a truck—a faded insignia on its side made her pulse quicken. “William,” she whispered, pointing. “That mark—it’s in the ledger. Page fourteen.”He followed her finger, eyes narrowing. “Adrian, keep watch. We’re going closer.”Lily didn’t hesitate as she moved with

    The safehouse lights burned through the early hours, a stark contrast to the black windows beyond. Rain ticked softly against the glass as Lily scrolled through the photos she had taken in the container yard, her fingers steady despite the storm in her chest.“These,” she said, turning the tablet toward William and Adrian, “show exact shipment IDs. Some match up with the missing person cases I pulled from the news last month.”Adrian leaned closer, jaw tightening as he scanned the images. “Trafficking routes… blood storage… he’s been running this for years.” He exhaled through his teeth. “Sir, this is enough to bury Leonard if we play it right.”William’s cold, calculated gaze lingered on the photos. “Not yet,” he said softly. “Evidence alone won’t bring him down. We need to know when he moves next. Where he’ll feel untouchable.”Lily looked up from the tablet, her voice quiet but firm. “And then?”“Then,” William said, eyes locking with hers, “we strike hard enough that he doesn’t ge

  • Mr. William's Rules   Chapter 83 - You can run Lily

    The SUV’s headlights cut through the night as Adrian eased it to a stop near a row of rusting shipping containers. The yard was silent except for the distant hum of the city, the air heavy with the smell of rain and oil.William stepped out first, scanning the perimeter with practiced precision. “Adrian,” he murmured, “sweep east.”Adrian nodded and moved off with his silenced sidearm drawn, checking every shadow. Lily followed William, her own flashlight covered with red film to avoid drawing attention.The containers loomed like hulking beasts, their metal sides streaked with rust. Lily pointed to one marked with faded symbols. “This one… these codes match the ledger.”William approached and tested the lock. “Adrian,” he called softly over the comm, “bring the tools.”Adrian returned within minutes, crouched, and worked the lock with silent efficiency. The door groaned open, the interior pitch dark. A cold draft carried the sterile smell of plastic and something faintly metallic.Li
