He found me before the monsters did. I don't know if that makes him my salvation or just a more dangerous kind of predator. My name is Vaelis. I've had six other names before this one, four cities in three years, and one rule that has kept me breathing since I was sixteen years old. Don't get caught. I almost made it. Then Thalrion Bloodryn decided he wanted me, and men like Thalrion Bloodryn don't want things quietly. They don't ask. They don't negotiate. They arrange situations and they wait and they look at you with silver eyes across a crowded room like you were always going to end up exactly here, in his building, drinking his coffee, reading a file with your name on it that goes back further than you knew your own blood went. I am not a person to the men hunting me, I am the most valuable weapon on earth. Thalrion says he's different. The problem is... I believe him. The bigger problem is that believing him might get us both killed. Because Noctyros Malvane has been watching longer than either of us knew. And what he wants from my bloodline is something no sane person would allow. And the war that is coming for Thalrion's throne has my name written at the center of it in red.

I stepped closer. Close enough to smell his cologne—cedarwood, leather, and power. My hand moved. Smooth, practiced. The pistol slide from under the apron into my palm. I raised it fast. But before I could pull the trigger— BANG. Not my shot. A scream tore through the restaurant as another man launched himself toward Romano’s table, blade flashing. Another assassin. What the hell— Romano didn’t flinch. He shoved the table forward, knocking the attacker off balance. The blade scraped across wood, not skin. I ducked instinctively as the room erupted into chaos. Gunfire cracked. Glass exploded. People screamed and dove for cover. “Get him out—NOW!” one of the guards barked. I aimed for the second attacker. Didn’t even hesitate. One shot—head. Gone. The guard saw me. Confusion flashed in his eyes. Then rage. I ran. I weaved between overturned chairs, plates, and screaming bodies. The smell of blood was real now, thick in the air. One of the guards grabbed me. I slammed my elbow into his ribs, twisted, and brought the butt of my gun down on his skull. He dropped like a sack of bricks. Out. I had to get out. My boots pounded the floor as I tore through the narrow hallway. But then— “Elisa.” His voice stopped me cold. I turned. Antonio Romano stood in the middle of the carnage, suit untouched, blood spattered behind him like art. His eyes were on me. And he was smiling. It was darker. Slower. Like a hunter seeing something worth chasing. Somehow, he knew who I was. “Interesting,” he said softly, tilting his head. “They sent you.” I didn’t answer. I ran. But that voice followed me. He knew my name. And he let me go. This wasn’t over. It had just begun.
