The Grave Woke Up

I still went to Northlake.

Of course I do.

Because apparently being a CEO meant you still had to show up, still had to keep an eye on what your team was doing to someone else’s systems, still had to make sure no junior analyst accidentally clicked the wrong thing and made an entire real estate company implode from the inside out. Even when every part of your body was screaming at you to turn the car around, go home, and pretend Portland did not contain a glass building occupied by your sister’s

  • My Sister's Fiance   some ghosts share

    I looked at Tania.“I’m just documenting operational chemistry.” She didn’t lift her eyes from the iPad.“I’m going to document your unemployment.”“Noted.”Zach moved closer, not to me exactly, but to the board. I knew. The distance between us shifted just enough for the air around my skin to notice.“If privileged access still sits above acquisition control, then there’s a pathway that was never handed over.” He read what I’d written on the board.“Yeah.”“Or someone deliberately handed over a fake one.”I looked at the red line on the diagram. “Yeah.”“And whoever it is knows your team started pulling the thread.”“They know because they’re watching.”“Can they see the school schedule?”I went still. Slowly, I turned toward him. “Directly through Northlake? They shouldn’t be able to.”“They shouldn’t,” Zach repeated.I hated the taste of those words in his mouth.“If they queried the building operations cache, that only gives them Northlake,” Arun said. “Badges, visitors, meeting

    Claire stepped forward, her expression sharpening. “What happened?”I turned to her. “NV_LOG_TEMP wasn’t a naming convention. It was a temporary gateway external vendors used to access archive staging.”Claire blinked. “That gateway is still live?”“Not healthy-live. More like corpse-sits-up-because-someone-forgot-to-lock-the-coffin live.”Ethan rubbed his jaw. “That gateway should have been deprecated.”I looked at him. “Want me to make you a T-shirt that says should have?”He shut his mouth.Character development.“Last credential activity was at 3:12 a.m. on the day Daniel Kessler tried to get into Arabella’s house,” Arun said from his chair, still keeping his hands away from the keyboard. “The gateway enumerated archive staging, read permission metadata, attempted a pull, then queried a path into building operations or the personnel movement cache.”Zach went silent.I saw his jaw tighten. Barely. Almost invisible.But I saw it.“Personnel movement cache?” Claire asked.“Legacy op

    I walked over to him.On the screen, a list of my team’s active sessions appeared. I saw my name. Tania. Arun. Omar. Jemima. Levi. Claire had one legal review session. Read-only token. Normal.Then one line flickered.ADMIN_OVERRIDE_VIEW.No username.No device label.Just source: internal privileged console.I stared at it.Tania looked at me.Neither of us said anything for two seconds, and somehow, two seconds was enough to turn the air in the room to glass.“Someone’s watching us?” Jemima asked, her voice quieter than usual.Arun started typing fast, trying to refresh the panel. “Could be a monitoring service.”“Monitoring services have names,” Tania said.“Northlake might not give us—”“Don’t give them the benefit of a positive imagination. They’re not paying us enough for that,” I cut in.Arun opened the session details.Blank.Too blank.Tania bent over her laptop, her butter-yellow nails moving quickly across the keyboard. “That’s not a normal user. There’s no endpoint fingerp

    “Hello, Northlake,” I murmured. “Let’s see what ugly little secret you’re keeping today.”Arun hit enter.The logs opened wider, line after line of white text against the black screen, tiny timestamps marching in order like the heartbeat of someone pretending they weren’t dying.The war room changed immediately.Not dramatically. There was no thriller music, no flashing lights, no sweaty guy yelling, “We’re in.”Real life was much uglier than movies.Real life gave you tiny fonts, metadata, and one field called temporary gateway that should never have existed in the first place.I leaned forward, one hand on the back of Arun’s chair, the other still holding the coffee I hadn’t had a chance to drink.Tania stood on the other side of the table, iPad in hand, her face stripped of every last trace of preschool humor. Jemima stopped moving her stylus. Omar stepped half a pace back from the firewall diagram. Levi, who had been chewing a donut like an optimistic human being, slowly lowered i

  • My Sister's Fiance   love in the age of credential reuse

    The twenty-first-floor hallway split in two directions. To the right, Zach’s executive office suite sat behind frosted glass and dark walnut doors, at the end of a corridor that felt like it had its own tax bracket.To the left was the large conference room that had already been turned into my team’s war room: long table, extra monitors, neatly arranged cables thanks to Tania, glass boards covered in mapping, colored sticky notes, and one bowl of donuts that definitely hadn’t been provided by Northlake because they looked too human.I spotted Tania inside, standing near the large screen in a cream blazer with the expression of someone who had already discovered technical stupidity and required witnesses. Arun sat at the end of the table in a dark hoodie, laptop open, wearing the face of a developer who was three error logs away from abandoning society. Jemima held two tablets. Omar was pointing at a firewall diagram with Levi, who looked like he was considering early retirement.That

  • My Sister's Fiance   the ordinary things were the dangerous ones

    I stopped. “This morning?” I asked, even though the answer had already settled between us.He nodded once, his eyes still forward. “They woke up beside me. Fought over space. Called me Daddy Shiny like it was the most normal thing in the world. Max negotiated over Red Rex. Issa asked about her hair. They argued in the car. You almost turned into your mother when Issa pulled Max’s hair.”“I did not almost.”“Bella.”“I was spiritually controlled.”His mouth moved slightly, but the smile didn’t quite reach all the way. “I liked taking them to school.”Something in my chest slowed.Or maybe it stopped for a second.Zach looked down at his own hands on the steering wheel. His fingers were loose, but I noticed the way his thumb brushed against the side of the leather, small and almost unconscious. Like someone who had just held something too fragile for the first time and still wasn’t sure it had really been given to him.“Nothing big,” he said. “Not an event. Not an announcement. Not some

    And then... the blue eyes I’d once punched found mine across the crowd.Oh, good.Just fantastic.If the universe had a sense of humor, it was definitely drunk.I didn’t know who moved first. Maybe not him. Maybe not me. Maybe the room just suddenly felt too tight, too bright, too full of people wh

  • My Sister's Fiance   Confetti, Cousins, and the Man I Punched

    Five days in the Gómez house felt like being tossed into an industrial washing machine: spinning, loud, warm, and there was always someone shoving food at you even after you’d just said you were full.On day one, Mamá had already rearranged my entire schedule like I was back in eleventh grade and n

    The second-floor workspace looks like a bored Pinterest board: neat white desk, bookshelves, two monitors. I’m in a fitted black blazer on top… alpaca-print pajama pants on the bottom.Out in the hallway, just beyond the half-closed door, the sound of running shakes the corridor.“SUPER MAX WILL SA

  • My Sister's Fiance   Five Years After the Fire

    Five years later.Oregon rain tapped softly against the kitchen’s glass wall. Steady, cold, and mildly annoying.The pan on the stove hissed quietly, the smell of almost-done corn arepas mixing with black coffee and the chorizo I was frying in the skillet next to it. A slow Latin playlist floated f
