" I try to concentrate and see a Blaze figure in my head. I try to find out what Blaze sees right now...where his whereabouts...and what is how condition. I closed my eyes and concentrate harder...what I See .. is the same as what Blaze see .... And Blaze is seeing.. 'What the F.....!'

Adrian’s head snapped slightly, like he could almost hear the tone even if not the words. “What is it saying now?” he demanded. Lyra hesitated. Then, “…it says you’re slowing me down.” A humorless laugh escaped him. “Good. Then I’m doing something right.” Despite everything, that pulled a breath of something like relief from her. But it didn’t last. Because the system suddenly pulsed. Hard. A new alert flashed across the interface. VERTICAL PRESSURE SPIKE DETECTED Lyra’s head snapped back to the screen. “What!!!?”

In rhythm. He stopped again. Frowned slightly. “…sync pulse.” That should not be occurring at this distance. Not without direct interface exposure. He exhaled slowly. And made a decision. He activated a secure internal override channel. No external network routing. Direct system-to-system bridge. A warning appeared immediately. WARNING: DIRECT COHERENCE LINK MAY RESULT IN FEEDBACK STABILIZATION COLLAPSE Adrian ignored it. He initiated anyway. For a brief moment, everything went quiet.

The laptop chimed once and showed a new alert, this time from the department firewall, ‘Unusual outbound relay detected: initiating traceback. And then the screen went white for a second like something heavy had blinked. Even though I haven't gotten the exact answer I need to know who was behind this, I think that this can actually help me to track it. And I wasn't letting this go until I did.

Warning symbols flashed across the screen. SYSTEM FAILURE DETECTED CONNECTION LOST DATA BREACH WARNING The cheerful faces in the crowd turned pale in seconds.

“Stay close.” His voice was low. Controlled. Dangerous. But I saw it— The shift in him. He was splitting focus. Two wars at once.

Unknown notifications. Legal flags. Identity warnings. My name. On systems I didn’t even know existed. Bryan looked up sharply.

The servers in the west wing hummed louder than usual — that low, electric growl that never meant anything good. Something was wrong. I could feel it. I’d just finished shutting down my tablet when the alert system blinked again, a faint red light pulsing in the corner of the study. I frowned. I hadn’t triggered any command. “Zane?” I called out. No answer. I waited a moment, then stepped closer. The red light kept blinking, faster now, like a heartbeat on caffeine. I tapped the screen. The interface stuttered, lines of code racing across the monitor before a new window forced itself open.

I gasped, our faces inches away from each other, I could feel his breath warm against my hair, and my hands were resting on his chest, his broad wide chest that felt nice to touch. For a second, I thought he might kiss me. We kissed back at the office, it was normal for us to continue, but then something caught my attention. A faint blinking warning on one of the auxiliary monitors. It wasn’t part of the usual system diagnostics. I’d seen it in one of my final robotics engineering classes and I recognized it. Even though the text was subtle, almost hidden behind layers of logs. I could see that it was an unauthorized process detected. A financial redirection protocol is active.

It started squeezing my throat again as the lights flickered and new red warning messages flashed across every screen: WARNING: FORSAKEN PROTOCOL ACTIVATED CONTAINMENT BREACH IN PROGRESS
