For a moment, the entire vault felt suspended in a strange, airless silence. The faint glow from the emergency lights painted Amelia’s face in wavering shadows, highlighting the edges of her smile. It was not a smile born of joy. It was the kind that lived in the space between cruelty and victory, the kind that told me she had been waiting for this moment longer than I could imagine.

Her gaze slid past me and locked on Adrian. A curl of hostility rose in her expression, something fierce and venomous. Whatever history existed between our families had clearly seeped into every corner of her hatred.

“Move away from her,” Amelia said softly, her tone almost musical. “I want to see my sister properly.”

Adrian did not move. His stance widened just barely, enough to shield more of me from her line of fire. “You are not going near her. Not now. Not ever.”

Amelia laughed, a bright, brittle sound that echoed through the steel chamber. “Adrian Hale defending a Vaughn. What an interesting world w

  • play me, Mr Play boy    Chapter 8

    The house was too quiet. Nora noticed it the moment she stepped through the doorway, the same doorway that had felt impossibly cold the night before. The silence pressed in around her, thick and unfamiliar, the kind of quiet that carries unspoken questions. She placed her bag on the small table near the entrance and inhaled slowly, unsure if she was ready for whatever waited inside. She had woken up that morning with heavy thoughts twisting beneath her ribs, but as she crossed into the living room, she sensed another heaviness layered on top of her own. It felt as though the house itself exhaled something strained.A soft clinking sound drifted from the kitchen. She followed it, unsure of what she would find, and paused when she saw Adrian standing beside the counter. His posture was rigid in a way she had never seen before. His shoulders were squared, but not with confidence. This time, they held something restrained. A tension that hummed quietly, like a storm building far beyond th

    The masked intruder’s warning still clung to the air long after he disappeared into the storm. Rain sprayed through the shattered window and soaked the floor, the wind carrying the city’s metallic scent into my apartment. My pulse refused to settle, and my breath came unevenly, as if my lungs had forgotten how to function. Every nerve felt stretched, the remnants of fear and adrenaline still burning across my skin.I forced myself to move and stepped toward the broken glass, my feet crunching softly against the wet shards scattered across the tiles. Outside, the streets carried the illusion of normalcy, with passing headlights cutting through sheets of rain, but the truth curled beneath the surface like a serpent. Someone had been following me. Someone had planned this. Someone had known exactly when I would be alone.My hands trembled as I brushed a piece of glass away from the ledge. The warning replayed in my ears, cold and deliberate. The intruder had not come to harm me, which wa

    The masked figure’s words hung in the air, heavy and poisonous. I staggered backward, glass crunching under my feet. My breath clawed at my throat as the figure stepped deeper into my apartment, their silhouette framed by the rain-soaked night behind them.My instinct screamed at me to run, but fear rooted me in place. The stranger tilted their head slowly, almost studying the panic in my eyes, almost savoring it. My fingers inched toward the nearest object I could grab, a ceramic vase on the table, but before I could reach it, a loud crash echoed from the hallway.The intruder spun sharply toward the noise. I didn’t wait for the next move. I lunged for the kitchen, every heartbeat thundering in my ears.I was halfway to the counter when an arm wrapped around my waist from behind, iron-strong, lifting me off my feet. I gasped, kicking wildly as the figure yanked me back. My nails clawed at their grip, my vision darkening with terror.And then a gunshot erupted through the apartment.T

    My heart hammered as I pressed myself against the cold glass, peering into the darkness below. The shadow moved again, deliberate, almost taunting. Whoever it was, they weren’t just watching. They were challenging me. Testing me.A surge of adrenaline pushed me into action. I grabbed my phone, dialing Adrian’s number with trembling fingers.“Answer,” I whispered, half to myself.After two rings, his deep voice came through, calm but sharp. “Nora?”“There’s… someone outside my window. Watching me,” I stammered.“Stay calm. Don’t confront them. I’m on my way.”I nodded even though he couldn’t see me, gripping the folder of documents as if it were a shield. Stay calm. Stay alive. Stay smart.The minutes dragged, but eventually, the sound of a sleek black car outside signaled Adrian’s arrival. Rain had returned, drumming on the roof, a chaotic rhythm that mirrored the storm inside me.Before I could take a step, the door opened, and Adrian was there. His eyes swept the area with lethal p

    The limousine purred through the rain-slicked streets, its leather interior cocooning us in a bubble of tension. The city outside was a blur of neon and water, but inside, every second felt magnified. My heartbeat thudded against my ribs like a drum, reminding me that I was no longer a spectator in life. I was part of the game. And the game was dangerous.Adrian didn’t speak for the first ten minutes. He drove with a precision that was almost hypnotic, eyes sharp, jaw set. Every now and then, his fingers tapped the steering wheel, a metronome for the storm I could already feel brewing between us.Finally, he spoke, voice low, deliberate. “Tonight, you’ll see how real power works, Nora. You’ll see how loyalty, cunning, and guts separate the weak from the survivors. And you… you will either prove yourself… or you’ll disappear.”I swallowed, gripping the edge of my seat. “I’m ready,” I said, though my chest burned with adrenaline and fear.“Good.” He smirked, and the corner of his eyes c
