Third Person PovLeo King lounged in the dimly lit office, the city lights flickering through the blinds. His eyes, cold and calculating, were fixed on the man standing rigidly in front of him. Frank shifted nervously, aware of the intensity of Leo’s stare.“Sit,” Leo said to him, gesturing to the chair opposite his massive desk. Frank obeyed immediately, careful not to make a wrong move.“You were at the party,” Leo started, his voice low and dangerous. “I’ve been watching. You handled yourself… well enough. But now, there’s work to be done. And I want no mistakes.”Frank nodded, keeping his expression neutral. “Understood, sir. What exactly do you want me to do?”Leo leaned back in his chair, steepling his fingers. “We have… obstacles. People who complicate things. My property, my influence… Your step in this will be decisive. You’re going to keep tabs on Oliver Locke's daughter, Nicole. And if anything threatens my plans, you neutralize it. Quietly.”Frank’s fist tightened, but

Nicole's POV I sat on the edge of my bed, with my phone in hand, the screen glowing softly in the dim room. The video notification blinked.Adrian had posted an update about the party. My fingers hovered over it for a moment. I didn’t want to watch… but I decided to. I needed to see him, hear him, even if it was just through a screen.I tapped play.Adrian appeared, sitting upright, looking as composed as ever, though I knew better. He couldn't have just healed from the gunshot, so he is still working despite the pain.The bright studio lights hit his face, highlighting every sharp angle.I hated to admit the fact that I missed it a lot.I sat my phone down, the screen going dark, and sat back against my chair. Silence filled the room, but my chest still felt tight, as if I were carrying the weight of everything Adrian had said and everything he had gone through. I couldn’t help the small ache in my chest as I thought about him. I missed him more than I realized.I had hoped h

Nicole's POV I was just stepping out of my last class, the late afternoon sunlight slanting across the schoolyard, when I saw the black car parked neatly at the curb. My stomach dropped in a way.It was Adrian.I froze for a second, my backpack slipping slightly off my shoulder. From the corner of my eyes, I caught a familiar presence lingering near the school fence. “Why is Frank watching me?” I thought to myself.Frank's sharp, calculating gaze followed us as I hurried toward the car, my pulse quickening. I forced myself not to look directly at him, not to give him the satisfaction of seeing my reaction.Adrian stepped out of the car before I could even reach it, his usual calm confidence radiating like a shield. “Hey,” he said softly, his voice echoing across the pavement.I hesitated, unsure how to react, then slid into the passenger seat, trying to act casual. “Why… why are you here?” I asked, my voice a mix of curiosity and guardedness.His eyes softened as he leaned slight

Adrian’s POVI arrived at the company earlier than usual.There was barely anyone around. Just some staff and of course, my partner, Ethan.Ethan leaned against the edge of the desk, folding his arms while staring down at the files spread across the table like they were pieces of a puzzle he didn’t like the look of.I rubbed the back of my neck, trying to ignore the dull ache in my side. The doctor had said I should be resting.Clearly, that wasn’t happening today.“So,” Ethan said slowly, tapping a finger on one of the folders. “Either your brother has suddenly developed very questionable taste in business partners…”He flipped the page. “…or he’s an idiot.”I exhaled quietly. “That narrows it down.”Ethan shot me a sideways look. “You’re not even surprised.”“I’m disappointed,” I corrected.I leaned forward slightly, scanning the financial report again.The file contained large transactions to offshore accounts, companies that didn’t technically exist and to top it up there were na
