    "The board is a graveyard of broken glass and flickering monitors," Galen said, his voice a low, gravelly rasp as he kicked aside a charred server casing. "You’re a monster, Nurin."Nurin didn't stand up. She remained in the high-backed executive chair, her fingers resting lightly on the cold, matte-black surface of her desk. The office was an icebox of silence, save for the rhythmic, unsettling ticking of the clock on the wall. She looked up at him, her dark eyes hollowed-out voids of violet light."I’m a realist, Galen," sh

    The board was a graveyard of broken glass and flickering monitors. Galen stood over the ruins of the SCIF, his hand still vibrating from the surge."You’re a monster," Nurin wheezed, her voice a thin, broken wire. She leaned against the server rack, her tactical vest shredded.Galen didn't blink. He caught her, his hands steady, his eyes fixed on the man in the charcoal suit stepping through the airlock.

    The SCIF hummed with the sound of dying electricity. Nurin’s head lolled against Galen’s shoulder, her breath shallow, fighting the encroaching vacuum."You’re a monster," she wheezed, her voice a thin, broken wire.Galen didn't blink. He caught her, his hands steady, his eyes fixed on the man in the charcoal suit stepping through the airlock."I’m a realist, Nur

Her sidearm was holstered, her hands empty, and her heart felt like a hollowed-out stone."You’re lying," Nurin whispered, though the footage played on the screen behind her—the grainy, silent proof of Galen’s hand in her past.
