"It was you, Elektra. I kept thinking: 'I hope I make it through this... so I can see Elektra Natchios's face one more time.' The truth is... I love you."
"I warned you; never trust somebody who's only after blood. That's all I have to give."
As Elektra made her way to the Beekman for the Science and Industry Ball, her thoughts wandered back to seven months prior when she had a heart-to-heart conversation with Victor.

It was a delicate dance, blending into the crowd while maintaining her focus on the mission at hand.
As she continued to observe from her spot at the bar and pretended to sip her drink, Elektra noticed movement in the crowd. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw a familiar face.
Someone who shouldn't be there.
