We all looked at ourselves and ignored him, knowing something was going on with his secretary but we all decided to ignore him because of the issue at hand. “We didn’t think this matter through before releasing that letter. I can say that was the most stupid thing we’ve ever done. Fine, one person was arrested and yet! They’re like ten or at least five members still walking around freely. If Caleb Callahan is a member, then we’re so fucked up because he saw Derek’s face the night he collected that letter from him” Henry was agitated and I could understand how he was feeling at the moments “We stirred the water too much guys. We didn’t plan this perfectly before doing it. I want everyone to t

Okay, so maybe that drawer wasn’t going to hold any secrets she’d be interested in. “Third time is a charm,” Violet whispered and opened the last draw on the left side. “If I was an alcoholic,” she breathed when she saw all that it held was a large wide bottle of something no doubt alcoholic and a couple of glasses. “Damn it,” she said and turned to the right side and opened the first drawer. It was filled with blank paper and note pads. The second jerked with a loud knock as she tried to open it. Locked. Licking her lips, Violet once more glanced back to the door then down at the drawer. The keyhole was obvious. She wasn’t sure how she missed it.

Ruby sat in the tub reeling from the brief conversation. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ **Dez** "Viktor! I found her; I'm leaving now." He was ecstatic and ready to leave. "Do not say where you are going. No one needs to know what you are doing. This must remain a secret until we know more about this situation." This was an odd request but he didn't mind. Dez was a private person anyway. "This may be more dangerous than I originally thought. Be extremely cautious." "I understand, I will text you after I get settled." He turned and was out of the building and in his car in less than thirty seconds.

"Aren't they going to talk something secretive that will get my attention?" [Governon, about the thing you asked before, I brought the secret files.] Wonwoo quickly put his feet down and leaned closer on the screen. "Finally! A secret file. What is it? I am curious about the governor's secret files." [Did you bring it? Did you make sure that no one knows those are for me?] the governor whispered which made Wonwoo got more curious as he secretly watched and listened their conversation. [Of course governor! I'd make sure no one knows that these are for you!] Then the man handed a paper bag to the governor.

Protected her father’s empire from collapse. Now she was about to burn it. A guard returned with a secure laptop. She opened it and began typing. Encrypted folders appeared one by one. Hidden accounts. Dead drops. Blackmail archives. Footsteps returned behind her. Alexei stopped a few feet away. He watched the screen. “How many secrets?” he asked quietly. She didn’t look up. “Enough,” she said. Dmitri walked closer. “And you’re giving them to us?” “No,” she corrected. “I’m trading them.”

Another pause. “The Quinn Archive.” Victor’s face drained of color. “No…” Alexander looked confused. “What archive?” Aurora felt her pulse racing. “The archive contains everything.” Her mother’s voice had become weaker. “The names of every government official we ever helped.” “Every corporation we secretly built.” “Every scientific discovery purchased.” “Every piece of evidence powerful people buried.” Lucien slowly understood. “My God…” Vivienne whispered, “It’s leverage.” Victor nodded numbly. “The greatest collection of secrets in modern history.”

Charles says, wrapping his arms around me from behind. My poor heart "Oh no son, I just didn't know that you and Elizabeth were that close" "Let's just say she's that hidden secret I wasn't ready to reveal yet" Now he's insinuating things "Oh I get it now. Congratulations you both!" She says with a beaming smile and walks excitedly, as if she has a dirty secret she cannot wait to share with everyone. "Charles!" "Elizabeth!" "Now you're just creating stories" "I've always wanted to be a writer since I was a kid"

Parker, the creative art teacher, looked at me with a sympathetic smile, which made me feel uncomfortable, worse than i had felt. "Why was everyone acting so strange?" I wondered. When I got to the office, the secretary, Mrs. May didn’t even ask why I was there. She just nodded and said, “Go ahead dear, they’re waiting.” Inside, the office was two counselors. And the principal, Mr. Williams. The office was eerily quiet and the air serious. My eyes moved over the unfamiliar office, there were framed awards in the walls, a lot to wilting flowers on the principals desk, but that didn’t bother me. I was more worried about the grave expression etched on their faces.

He entered a long code, leaned forward for the scanner to read his eye. A section of the bookcase, smooth and seamless, slid aside with a soft hiss. Behind it was not a room, but darkness. That's where the secrets actually live," Brian breathed, his tone hushed. "The ones that aren't in the archive. The ones that can bring it all down." He glared at Davidson with an inscrutable look. "The key of irrevocability." He reached out and grasped Davidson's, the one with the watch on which the scars were visible. He moved his fingers over the keypad.

“Don’t tell me we are really still on this, Ashley.” “But of course we are. And don’t worry, this time I am not speaking without anything to back me up because I know better than to do so at this point in my life,” I responded, handing over a couple of papers for them to go through. “As you can see from the signed agreement, which is dated to approximately six years ago, the leaked secrets weren’t given to just one person as we all thought. In fact, they were shared among a good number of wolves who were obviously desperate to claim the throne for themselves.” I noticed both Lucas and Simon turning to face each other, but I didn’t make sense of what they were thinking.
