Keefe's POV
The hours passed slowly as I waited for an opportunity to act. My mind raced with scenarios, trying to outsmart the Neverseen (like I always do) and protect Sophie. Finally, Gethen summoned me for another briefing.
"Agent Legacy, time to prove your loyalty," Gethen said sharply, eyeing me with suspicion.
I forced a smirk, trying to hide my anger burning within. "Of course, boss man. What's the plan this time?"
Gethen outlined the details, his voice cold. Every word confirmed the danger Sophie was in. I had to act quickly.
"Sounds like a plan," I replied nonchalantly, hiding my defiance.
"You leave at dusk. Don't screw this up," Fintan warned as he passed by.
I nodded, my mind already racing ahead to the next steps. As soon as I was dismissed, I hurried to my room, my heart pounding with a mixture of fear and determination.
