Not yet. The scanner’s voice Alexei’s recorded baritone echoed again: “Retinal scan required for full activation. One heir. One legacy. Failure to comply triggers purge. Sixteen hours remaining.” I stepped forward. The blue light flared brighter, a cold beam sweeping across my face. I forced myself to hold still eyes wide, unblinking as the machine mapped my retinas. A soft chime. Green light. “Scan confirmed. Luca Volkov Marino. Primary heir recognized. Access granted.”

Rhys slowly extended his left arm, placing his wrapped forearm directly into the glowing blue cradle. The scanner flared to life, a grid of green lasers painting the carbon-fiber wraps, digging deep into the micro-filaments. On the massive holographic screen above the pedestal, lines of raw code began to scroll rapidly. > **HARDWARE SCAN: RUNNING...** > COMPOSITION: CARBON-ALUMINA SKELETAL WEAVE > RESISTANCE INDEX: ACTIVE > MOLECULAR DENSITY: MAXIMUM >

"He didn't say so in the room because you'd already decided and he knows the type, but he told me afterward that it doubles your exposure." "I know," I said. I folded a jacket and placed it in the case. "But it's the right call." "He also thinks Vane will have countermeasures," Alexander said. "Someone at his level will have people in any room he enters who scan for devices." "I know that too," I said. "Rodriguez's team has equipment that reads below the standard scan threshold. It was developed for exactly this kind of situation." I placed another item in the case. "We've already discussed it."

A tiny wearable health device. Simple but very powerful. “My team and I spent years creating Kira.” I picked up one of the demonstration models. “This tiny device creates a complete biological scan within seconds.” The giant screen showed the demonstration. “It identifies illnesses.” “It predicts health risks.” “It monitors organ function.” “It tracks body changes.” “It recommends treatment options.” The audience watched attentively. “And most importantly?” I smiled. “It gives people answers before fear takes over.” The applause came again. Louder this time. Much louder. I looked around the room. At the faces. At the admiration. At the respect. For years I thought success was power. I though

" It can look for bugs, hidden signals, and other things that might be sending our location. This will reveal anyone who might be a traitor. Xander's gaze expanded. "You've had that for how long?" Brad coldly answered, "I've been saving it for a moment like this." "Everyone, put your electronics down. Everything will be scanned. They all reluctantly obeyed. There was a soft beep as Brad turned on the scanner. The gadget whirred to life, displaying lines of code on its display screen. It looked around for a few anxious minutes, looking for any irregularities. Then it came to an end. There was a signal when the screen flashed red.

On the screen, Ciara's pale face filled the frame, her breathing shallow. "Ciara, we need you to walk us through this," David said gently. "Can you do that?" Ciara nodded weakly. "The sequence... fingerprint first, then retinal scan, then say 'Override protocol Viktor-Seven-Seven-Alpha.'" Elena positioned her finger over the scanner. "Ready?" The scanner beeped, accepting the print. A small camera extended from the device. "Now your eye," David said. Elena leaned forward. The scanner beeped again, and a green light appeared.

"Scanning for vulnerabilities now. This will only take a moment." He touched a nearly invisible stud on the side of his device. It wasn't a scanner. It was a micro-interferer, designed to emit a precisely timed burst of high-frequency energy. He had been waiting for this moment—the moment the Fenris-Rage sample was active and outside of its cryo-stasis. "Scan complete," Ivan said, standing up. "The port is now firewalled. My apologies again." He bowed slightly and exited the room, the door hissing shut behind him.

"Here, take this." The phone disappeared from his hand. Xander and I looked at each other, eyes wide. "Okay," he said and then gulped. "Now, hold your hand in front of the scanner.
