WEBS OF FORBIDDEN ENTANGLEMENT Chapter 110: Full Chest
The rain had stopped by afternoon.Sunlight returned in pale strips across the hospital floor, touching the chrome legs of chairs, the water jug on the side table, and the folded blanket near Tricia’s knees. The room looked cleaner in daylight, less haunted, though nothing inside it had changed by appearance alone.Mr. Greene stood by the window reading from his phone. General Watson paced exactly four measured steps, turned, and paced back again. Raymond leaned against the wall beside the door, arms folded, eyes lowered in thought.Tricia watched all three men for nearly a minute before speaking.“You are all moving around my problem as though I am furniture.”No one answered immediately.Then Greene lowered the phone.“I was reviewing options.”Watson stopped pacing.“I was thinking.”Raymond glanced up.“I was staying quiet.”She lifted one brow.“That may be the most suspicious thing here.”The corner of Raymond’s mouth moved.Good, she thought. Let them all remember the room belo
WEBS OF FORBIDDEN ENTANGLEMENT Chapter 109: What Fear Has Become
The words remained in the room after Tricia spoke.He thinks secrets are all I fear.No one moved immediately. The monitor beside the bed kept its measured rhythm. Outside the window, a siren rose somewhere in the city below, then thinned into the distance.Raymond watched her face. Something had altered in it. Not softness, not calm. Something steadier than either.For weeks, perhaps months, fear had appeared in her as flinching, hesitation, avoidance, tears swallowed before they formed. Now it looked different. It had shape. It had edges. It had become recognisable enough to stand against.Mr. Greene set his phone on the table.“That may have been a bluff.”Tricia did not look at him.“No.”“You believe he intends to follow through.”“I believe he intends to hurt whichever way hurts most.”Watson’s expression hardened.“Then we stop indulging this nonsense and let Friday answer him.”She turned her head toward her father.“You still think this is about court.”“It is about law now.”
WEBS OF FORBIDDEN ENTANGLEMENT Chapter 108: The Request
No one spoke for several seconds.The hum of the air vent became strangely loud. Somewhere in the corridor, a trolley rattled past, wheels clicking over the threshold strip and fading again. The room itself seemed to draw inward around the sentence Mr. Greene had just delivered.He wants to see Tricia alone before Friday.General Watson was the first to move.He did not rise abruptly, did not slam a hand against anything, did not need spectacle to convey fury. He simply straightened where he stood by the window, and the temperature of the room seemed to drop.“No.”The word came flat and absolute.Mr. Greene slipped the phone back into his pocket.“That was my immediate response as well.”Raymond remained standing near the foot of the bed, shoulders rigid, one hand still resting on the paper bag he had brought moments earlier. He looked not at Greene, but at the floor for one brief second, as if organising whatever came next.“Why alone?”Greene opened the message thread on his screen
WEBS OF FORBIDDEN ENTANGLEMENT Chapter 107: Two Weeks Is Enough
Morning arrived pale and undecided.Cloud cover pressed low over the city, turning the hospital windows into sheets of muted silver. The storm of the previous night had washed the streets clean, but it had left behind the heavy stillness that often follows weather violent enough to empty itself.Tricia woke before sunrise.The room was dim except for the thin blue line of corridor light beneath the door. Machines glowed softly at her bedside. Somewhere farther down the hall, wheels rolled over polished floor, then faded.For several seconds she did not remember why her chest already hurt.Then the memory returned in order.Messages.Mercer.Mark.Two weeks after Raymond came home.She closed her eyes again.The babies shifted low beneath her hand, a small rolling insistence that pulled her back into the body instead of the past.“I know,” she whispered.No one answered.Raymond was asleep in the chair beside the bed.He had insisted he would leave after midnight. He had fallen asleep
WEBS OF FORBIDDEN ENTANGLEMENT Chapter 105: Another Name in the Room
The words entered softly and struck hard.Sean was not the only person helping him.Mr. Greene remained near the doorway, one hand still on the handle as though he had expected resistance and wanted a quick retreat available. Rain continued to move down the window behind Raymond in thin silver lines, but inside the room every sound seemed to withdraw.Tricia’s fingers tightened around Raymond’s hand.General Watson, who had returned only moments earlier and now stood just beyond the threshold, stepped fully inside.“Close the door,” he said.Greene did.The latch clicked into place.Raymond turned first.“Who?”Greene did not answer immediately. He crossed to the side table, set down a folder, and removed his coat with the deliberate motions of a man arranging time before using it.“I need everyone listening carefully before names begin.”“That usually means bad news,” Raymond said.“It means consequential news.”Watson’s patience shortened visibly.“Greene.”The lawyer opened the fol
WEBS OF FORBIDDEN ENTANGLEMENT Chapter 106: Revealed Truths
The nurse returned with medication and a glare sharpened by long experience.“I assume none of you know how to keep a patient calm.”“No,” Raymond said.“That is the first sensible answer I have heard all evening.”She handed Tricia the cup.“Take this.”Tricia obeyed.The nurse checked the monitor, adjusted the blanket over her legs, then fixed the three men with a look that would have quieted lesser wars.“You have ten minutes.”When she left, the room seemed smaller.Mr. Greene gathered the papers from the chair, but one final page slipped free and drifted onto the table between them.Raymond picked it up before anyone else moved. His eyes crossed the lines once.Then slowed.“What is this?”Greene’s expression changed.“That page was not meant to be included yet.”Raymond kept reading. The exchange was brief. Between Mark and Mercer.Dated two weeks after Raymond returned home from the mission.Mercer: Thought you were finally free of it. Mark: I thought so too. Mercer: Then wal
WEBS OF FORBIDDEN ENTANGLEMENT Chapter 27: The Aftermath
The warehouse fell into a terrible silence after the gunshot.For a moment, even Sean seemed frozen, staring at the body that had just collapsed onto the cold concrete floor.Across the room, Raymond lay face down where the bullet had struck him from behind. His fingers twitched slightly as he stru
WEBS OF FORBIDDEN ENTANGLEMENT Chapter 25 : Revenge
The warehouse was cold and silent except for the faint hum of a loose lightbulb swinging above the center of the room. Dust floated through the weak light.Two figures were tied to metal chairs beneath it.Raymond slowly lifted his head, consciousness returning in painful waves. His skull throbbed
WEBS OF FORBIDDEN ENTANGLEMENT Chapter 23: Jealousy
Mark Coleman barely slept that night. The thought kept circling his mind like a predator stalking its prey.Raymond and Tricia.A getaway.Alone.Every time he pictured it, something inside him twisted violently. He imagined them walking together somewhere quiet, Raymond speaking softly to her, Tri
WEBS OF FORBIDDEN ENTANGLEMENT Chapter 16: The Name in the System
Mark stared at the tablet in his hands.The parking structure felt colder now.The system log on the screen showed the terminal ID used to access the navigation controls before the mission.He knew that terminal. Too well.His voice came out quietly.“That terminal… belongs to Sean Carter.”Daniel
