No more running.” I suck in a lungful of air, like I’m about to dive. “I’ll even quit racing if that’s what you want.” The truth sits there between us, terrifying and naked. She sucks in a sharp whoopee breath — a deep, broken sound, as if it rips straight out of her chest. I turn to her. And then I forget how to breathe. Her eyes are shining, wide and deep and unbearably tender. There’s love there. Raw, fierce, undeniable.

Just… silence. Then I heard it. A whisper. Soft. Right behind me. “Aria…” I spun around, my heart slamming into my ribs. No one was there. Only trees and shadows. “Who’s there?” My voic e cracked.

The world around me seemed to fade into oblivion, leaving only this man - this dangerous man who held my darkest, deepest secret in the palm of his hand, wielding it like a sword with a mere utterance of a name.

We move together in the dark, a frantic scramble to anchor each other before the floor drops out. When the release finally comes, it is a shattered, breathless mess of sound and shuddering limbs.

Violet’s heart pounded in her chest as she carefully made her way towards the staircase. The sounds of people enjoying their dinner filtered through the house. That was probably the only reason Violet hadn’t fainted yet. If there is one thing she learned through all this is that she didn’t have a future in espionage.
