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

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

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 104: Two Truths at Once
Rain began just after dusk.It tapped first against the wide hospital windows in scattered drops, then gathered confidence until the glass carried a constant silver movement from top to bottom. The city beyond blurred into streaks of light and shadow, headlights smearing across wet streets far below, towers dissolving at their edges.Inside the room, the lamps were low.Tricia sat upright in bed with a blanket drawn over her legs, untouched tea cooling on the tray beside her. The doctor had insisted she rest. The nurse had repeated it twice. Her body, however, had chosen a different arrangement and remained alert beneath the sheets, every nerve listening for footsteps, for phones, for voices changing tone in the corridor.Raymond stood near the window, one hand in his pocket, the other holding Mr. Greene’s printed pages loosely at his side.He had not looked at them for several minutes. He had memorised enough already.The reflected room in the glass showed them both: Tricia pale agai
WEBS OF FORBIDDEN ENTANGLEMENT Chapter 103: What Survives in Writing
The corridor outside Tricia’s room seemed narrower after that sentence.They found the messages.Mr. Greene stood with the phone still in his hand, the screen gone dark now, as though the call had completed its work and withdrawn. General Watson’s expression did not visibly change, yet Raymond had begun to recognise the subtle signs that meant the older man’s mind was moving quickly beneath the surface.“How far back?” Watson asked.Greene slipped the phone into his pocket.“Initial retrieval covers the relevant months. Additional archives may take longer.”“The relevant months,” Raymond repeated.His voice carried a sharpness he did not intend.Greene looked at him evenly.“The period beginning after Raymond was presumed dead and continuing after his return.”There it was. Clean. Chronological. Impossible to hide behind vague language.Raymond glanced toward the closed hospital room door.Inside, Tricia was trying to rest. She was carrying enough already.And somewhere in a server f
WEBS OF FORBIDDEN ENTANGLEMENT Chapter 8: The Secret Grows
The house was quieter that afternoon.Most of the relatives who had crowded the place since Raymond’s return had finally gone home, leaving behind only the faint smell of food and the scattered evidence of celebration, empty cups, folded chairs, forgotten conversations lingering in the air.Tricia

The message came late in the evening.We need to talk.Tricia stared at the words on her phone for a long time before responding.She had known this conversation was coming. Ever since Raymond returned, it had been hanging between her and Mark like a storm waiting to break.She typed slowly.Where?
WEBS OF FORBIDDEN ENTANGLEMENT Chapter 10: Watching Eyes
The following week settled into a routine that felt normal on the surface.Raymond began slowly returning to parts of his life. Not full military duties yet, the doctors insisted he still needed time, but meetings, paperwork, and short visits to the base filled his mornings.To everyone else, it lo
WEBS OF FORBIDDEN ENTANGLEMENT Chapter 9:Old Promises
The evening sky was turning orange when Raymond knocked on Tricia’s door.She had been sitting on the edge of the bed, trying to read the same page of a book for nearly twenty minutes without actually absorbing a word.“Come in,” she said.The door opened.Raymond stepped inside, carrying two cups
