"We can't risk retaliation."

Zade nodded.

"I'll keep her safe."

Axel grinned.

Nightmares haunted him.

I held him close.

"We'll face this together."

Axel arrived with a surprise.

"A gift from Thompson."

A folder containing Victor's files.

"More secrets to uncover," Axel said.

Zade's eyes narrowed.

"Let's dig deeper."
