I had been in my space since I got back this morning, and had all my meals in my suite. I had drawn the curtains shut since I returned, avoiding everything that had to do with the outside world. Ralph had made my stay in this mansion livable since we got back together, and now that he was nowhere, I was beginning to cave in. I didn't want to see the night either, and my mind refused to quiet down. Ralph's voice on the phone was still clear and ringing in my head – the panic in his tone when he said they were following him, the sound of the crash that had ended everything – it haunted me. I heard the door open, interrupting my thoughts. Aldwin walked in without knocking, which wasn't unusual for him, but he had this aura that made him almost unrecognisable – calm, like he was making an effort not to startle me. He crossed the room and sat on the edge of the bed beside me, and the mattress dipped under his weight. For a moment, he didn't say anything. He just sat there, looking at

The GPS led us deeper into a part of the city I had only heard about. Matthew drove to a corner in Bowery to park the car, and the moment he turned the engine off, he took a long worried sigh, still gripping the steering wheel. “We don't have to do this,” he said quietly, not looking at me. “We can still turn around.” “I didn't come all this way to turn around.” I reached for the door handle before I could change my mind.Matthew followed closely beside me, close enough that I could feel the tension radiating off him, and I hated how grateful I was for his presence.

This wasn't my world, and I had no business being here. Every instinct I had was screaming at me to turn around and not look back, but I was too determined. Because I t

“What exactly was this deal? What was he building for them?” I was beginning to panic. “You probably know him as a tech smart ass, but Ralph's the real deal. He built a multi-layered APT (advanced persistent threat) framework designed for high-level digital heists – a malicious system that doesn't just track targets; it bypasses hardened security and pivots through monitored systems to access classified intelligence, encrypted data, you name it. He's that good. They chose the right person.” “Oh my God!” I covered my mouth with both hands, reeling in disbelief. It seemed like I was hearing about someone unknown and not Ralph. “What exactly do they want from him now?” The fixer scoffed. “They had paid him a huge sum, so they let him be for the whole year, knowing he would have spent all that money once he got comfortable. It was a trap, and Ralph fell for it. Now they're back and they want their money – either that, or Ralph continues what he started, and he wasn't ready to go on wi
