“Will see you later in the day then. I have to get back to the company.” Which I ignored, my ears peeking and listening to him shuffle through the hallway, then retreating. I only breathed in oxygen when his car roared from out, as he drives out once again. He must have forgotten something. Some important document, maybe. “That was close.” Natalie flipped the duvet off her body. “We were almost busted.” And I laughed. Natalie was busy scrolling through N*****x in my room so I left her there where it has been ages since I have been at.

"Supplies are out. Radio me if you need anything." Nate straightened and waited for Nakos to mount the ATV before climbing on behind him. He held the back of the seat, giving the foreman room to maneuver as Nakos drove them over the plains to the southern pasture. Which took twenty minutes. It still floored Nate how much land encompassed Cattenach Ranch. So much...breathing room. Honestly, he couldn't remember a time in his life where he could freely breathe. It was a luxury never afforded to him.

Cassandre The shrill ringing of my phone pulls me from sleep like a slap. It’s still dark in the room, but the phone screen radiates like a nuclear alarm. I grunt, pull the blanket over my eyes, then, annoyed, sit up halfway to grab the phone. A flurry of notifications. Missed calls. Mentions. Group messages. Links. Screenshots.

"I have a four year old" I said. "He goes to bed at eight. We won't be a problem." She looked at me for a moment and then she showed me Nathan's room. It was small. Just enough for a bed and a dresser and a small play area. But the window faced east and in the afternoon the light came in at an angle that made the whole room feel warmer than it was.

“I’m talking to an invisible friend like a child. Next thing I’ll be asking is if Casper wants coffee. God, it looks like I am really going to die. Everything is falling apart.” Buzz. New message: Patience. We see you. Nathan’s eyes shot upward. “We? What do you mean by "we"? Fantastic. This is going out of hand.” He pulled out the flash drive and held it up.

**Amara's POV** Thursday. Volume two arrived. Not by courier. Adrian had collected it from the bookshop on Walnut Street in the morning before the school run. He had placed it on the bedside table beside volume one. Noah had seen it when he woke up. He had not said anything. He had looked at it. He had looked at the ammonite. He had looked at the two volumes side by side. He had nodded. He had gone to breakfast. At the kitchen table he had said, with the focused efficiency of someone reporting a completed inventory:

It would soon be winter. A fairly thin and transparent black stocking covered her slender legs. Coupled with high-heeled boots made her look even more stylish. She picked up her phone and tried to call Dante. Unfortunately, he didn’t answer. She tried calling him again twice, but Dante still didn’t respond. “Forget it. At least I called him,” she muttered. After that, Natalie immediately went down to the lobby and ordered an Uber. About fifteen minutes later, she finally arrived at her destination. “Night Glory Club.” Natalie stood as she read the sign on the three-story building. From the outside, the club looked normal.
