Silver's POV News of my stunt with Rune spread like wildfire. News stations around the globe reached out to me, hoping they could get an exclusive but I didn't take him down for the publicity. “We are almost there, Miss Silver,” My driver announced as he drove through the security at the gate. I was so lost in thought that I didn't realize I was home. “He didn't change a thing,” I mumbled. We drove past the woods in the estate and headed towards the mansion. I was enjoying the scenery when my eyes caught a glimpse of someone hiding behind the trees. I blinked and I could no longer spot it. The car had passed the area but I still struggled to see who it was. “Is everything okay?” The driver asked. I had no response because there was no way to explain what I saw and what I felt. In a strange way, the person was recognizable but I couldn't place how and from where. “Welcome home,” He pulled up. I looked around through the glass and realized that there weren't enough wor

Silver's POV“There's no trace of it, or the people that took it,” Jericho reported back. It was the fifth search we had run that week and came up with nothing. It was almost like whoever ambushed the cargo didn't exist. I replayed the footage from the truck’s cam, hoping for some clue that would pull me out of the unknown contract I had got into but it was too perfect. “I can't think of anything,” I sighed. I was nervous because he summoned me to his mansion that evening. “Are you going?” Jericho noticed the long face. “If you are, I'm coming with,” “I don't need a protector, I need solutions. Our problems seem to be getting worse by the second, so find us a way out,” “The gas used to disorient the security has a rare form of mistletoe. We can start our search there,” he muttered as he grabbed my computer. After a while, he turned it back to me with the picture of a DUNG MISTLETOE. “It's a needle in a haystack,” I remarked as I read through the list of companies that used it i

Silver's POV “Triscade? You own Trivia?” Jericho was just as stunned as I was. Triscade came from money but not that kind of wealth to build an empire over night. “How? When did this all start?” “During my travels, I was able to convince some people to invest in my ideas and they took a liking to it,” His broad shoulders almost made the chair he was sitting on non existent. I didn't remember that he was that tall. “I'm surprised you didn't recognize the name, Silver. You can up with it,” “It was familiar,” I muttered softly, unable to control my expression as he smiled flirtatiously at me. Heat rushed to my cheeks, and I blushed uncontrollably. “You still used it, I'm wowed,” “You inspired this, all of these came from you and that's why the name is also from you,” he said as he poured a drink into three glasses. “Now, we are here because we want to be part of this inspiration,” Jericho began as he received the glasses from him. “Imagine a revolutionary part

Silver's POV I could see him through the glass, sitting with a welcoming smile, waiting for my arrival. Every nerve in my body wanted to believe Raid was lying but my instincts couldn't look the other way. It was almost as if he confirmed what I had been sensing all along. “I can't leave you with him,” Jericho stood next to me, watching the same scene I was. I was confused on the best route to take and I was terrified of confirming if he was truly against my family.“We should leave, Silver. It's not worth it to be here,” “I didn't know I hurt him, I thought we both outgrew each other,” I muttered softly. “I have been blaming father for creating enemies, while this is my own creation,” “Its not your fault, Silver.” “I'm going in,” I advanced but halted when I noticed that he was walking alongside. “No, Jericho. It's a date, not an ambush. Just let me handle this while you continue finding more dirt on Raid, something that will bring me out of working with him,” He took a while

Silver's POV The next day, we pulled all my father's transaction records, his check books and flight patterns, hoping to understand how he ran his routines but we got nothing. He ran everything off the books and under the radar but I knew my father, he must have kept some sort of record. “Trust me, I have been through these files a dozen times but there's nothing here Silver,” Jericho grunted wearily. The dark patches around his eyes showed just how exhausted he was and I wasn't looking any better. “So we devise our own way in, using our own transport system but with our contacts inside the pack,” I suggested as an idea popped into my head. “I think that's how he does it,” I mumbled “What's that?” He leaned over the messy desk. “ Some names of the people in the company’s contact list are highlighted, maybe, that's how he works. He works with an insider to get things into the pack without pulling attraction,” I noticed how each highlighted names were people from different packs o
