When He Begs Me To Stayย ย ย Chapter 37
By the time we reached the outskirts, my hands were still trembling, but not from fear, from the rush, from the need to move, to do something. We found a temporary base in an old mechanic shop that hadnโt seen a car in years. Rusted tools hung like trophies on the walls, dust thick enough to write on. Grayson swept for bugs while Lucas went straight to the breaker box and rewired the power like it was muscle memory. I just paced and my thoughts were running faster than my mouth could keep up with. โTheyโre tracking us faster each time,โ Grayson said, scanning a device. โWhoeverโs behind this has infrastructure. Serious one.โ โThen we take it from them,โ I shot back. โFind their server, burn it down, feed them their own data until their systems choke.โ Lucas glanced up from the wires, a small grin tugging his mouth. โThatโs my girl.โ I ignored the flutter and folded my arms. โSo where do we start?โ He tapped a map open on the dust
When He Begs Me To Stayย ย ย Chapter 36
The air outside felt charged, like the city itself knew something was coming. I hadnโt felt this exposed in months,no disguise, no shadows to crawl into, no place to hide behind someone elseโs name. Just me, Ava, out in the open again. Grayson moved beside me, silent but alert, scanning every face that brushed past us like each one carried a secret. Lucas trailed a few steps behind, calm in that unnerving way he had, one hand tucked casually in his jacket, the other holding his phone, pretending not to be tense but I could feel it. We all could. We had been tracing a lead for hoursโan encrypted message Grayson had cracked late last night. Coordinates. A time. A promise of the next piece of the puzzle but the closer we got, the more something in me screamed that it was too neat, too easy. โI donโt like this,โ I murmured, keeping my voice low as I stepped around a cracked pavement. โItโs too quiet.โ Graysonโs jaw twitched. โThatโs exactly what I said ten minu
When He Begs Me To Stayย ย ย Chapter 35
I was tired of hiding, not the kind of tired that a few hours of sleep could fix. This one lived in my bones โ an exhaustion that came from pretending too long, from swallowing my name, my anger, my story. Every disguise, every whisper, every fake smile had been another layer of suffocation and I was done. The sweatshirt on my back wasnโt even mine, but it carried the scent of smoke and distance, a reminder of how far Iโd run. My hair, finally loose, tangled in the wind. The chill of dawn stung my skin, but I let it. It reminded me I was still alive.Behind me, I heard Lucasโs footsteps before he even spoke. He always had this way of filling the silence, not loud, not clumsy, but steady, like someone trying to anchor you whether you wanted it or not. โAva,โ he said, his voice quiet but edged. โYouโre not thinking this through.โ โIโve done enough thinking,โ I replied without turning. โIt never helped anyway.โ He sighed, that same exasperated breath he

I didnโt realize how long Iโd been waiting until the moment my fingers hovered over the keyboard, the plan solid and dangerous in front of me, every detail sharp enough to cut. For weeks, I had hidden, observed, and calculated. Shadows had been my companions,and silence my armor but now, it was time to stop waiting. Time to make my presence felt, carefully and deliberately with all the anger I had bottled up inside. Lucas leaned against the doorway, one hand pressed to the frame, with his eyes assessing every inch of me. The faint twitch of a smile crossed his lips as he noticed my tension, my barely contained energy. โReady?โ he asked. His voice was calm, but I could hear the restrained thrill beneath it, a mirrored reflection of my own anticipation. I nodded, biting back a laugh that felt like it might shatter the room if I let it. โMore than ready. Itโs time they start feeling us. That weโre not hiding forever. That every move they think is safe could be our a

The moment the figure collapsed into the shadows, silence pressed down on me, heavy and deceptive, as if the world had paused to catch its breath before chaos resumed. My chest heaved with my muscles trembling from exertion, and my heart still hammering as adrenaline refused to ebb. Lucas sagged slightly beside me, with the sharp edge of his injury which is almost healed, making each movement deliberate and cautious. I caught him rubbing his side with one hand, and his jaw clenched tight enough to cut stone. โTheyโre not done,โ I said with my voice barely a whisper, though sharp enough to slice through the quiet. Lucas shook his head slowly, with his eyes scanning the perimeter, and face pale under the dim lights. โI know. Theyโre just regrouping. Theyโll hit again where they think weโre weak. Thatโs always their first assumption.โ I let out a short laugh, jagged and raw. โWeak? You think weโre weak?โ My voice rose slightly, with a mixture of di

The night stretched on like a taut wire, every shadow a potential threat, and every sound amplified into a warning. My hands tightened around the burner phone on the table, though I knew checking it again would accomplish nothing but spike my anxiety. Even when silent, it felt alive, mocking my attempts to breathe steadily. I could feel the tension in my shoulders, and in the muscles as I forced myself to relax, as if any twitch might betray me to whoever was out there watching. Lucas sat across from me, the wound along his side still tender, but his posture steady, with his eyes alert in the dim light. I noticed how he favored his right side slightly, the way his grip on his coat tightened with each subtle noise outside, and it made my chest clench in a mix of concern and admiration. โWeโre not going to wait for them to act,โ he said with the words slicing through the quiet tension like a sharpened blade. โWe take the first move, make them react.โ I let his word

The silence after the gunfire was heavier than the sound itself. It pressed against my chest, thick and unrelenting, the kind that made you realize the noise had been keeping you sane. Lucas was still breathing, barely but steady and his hand twitched whenever I touched his shoulder.

It started with a sound I almost mistook for thunder, that heavy, rolling crack that rattled windows and made the air feel tight, like something was holding its breath, but this wasnโt thunder because thunder dosenโt come with the glass shattering and the high-pitched ring that followed a bu

The message wouldnโt leave my head. โYou think youโre invisible?โ It flashed every time I blinked and burned behind my eyes like the after image of a flame I couldnโt put out. I kept the burner phone on the rickety table beside me, the cracked screen is black now, but the words were still th
When He Begs Me To Stayย ย ย Chapter 24
The laptopโs glow painted my face in cold light, the kind that made everything look too honest. I hadnโt slept, not really and the air in this new apartment was thin, smelling of damp walls and exhaustion, plus my hands wouldnโt stop shaking no matter how tightly I pressed them together.
