Tick... tock... tick... tock.
Every 12th of the month, the world holds its breath.
Seven thieves - ghosts of the modern age - strike without warning, stealing relics of history that were thought to be untouchable. But it's not the first time. In 1984, another mysterious team executed the same pattern - twelve perfect robberies, one per month, vanishing after the twelfth.
Now, decades later, the crimes begin again - same dates, same style, same precision.
Are they imitators? Descendants? Or the unfinished echo of something far more dangerous?
Time is their weapon. History is their map.
And the clock is running out.
Tick... tock... tick... tock. The Calendar Job has begun.

I froze, my muscles turning to absolute stone as my lungs struggled to draw air. This was a nightmare. The walls I had spent months building to hide our tracks collapsed in a heartbeat. How did he find us? My body violently flinched when Elliott laughed. It was a deep, low baritone that vibrated through the floorboards of the plane and struck a chord of primal terror in my chest. My back collided with Levi's chest behind me as I stumbled back. It was over. The realisation made my blood turn to ice. He had found me and I was entirely at his mercy now. "I am deeply wounded by your reaction, my love. Truly, why are you so afraid?" Elliott uncoiled from his seat with a slow, predatory grace. He stood at his full, imposing height, casually smoothing the lapels of his charcoal black suit. An amused half-smile played on his lips that didn't reach the absolute void of his emerald eyes. "I haven't even started with you yet." He murmured, his voice dropping into a dark warning as he stepped out from behind the seat, closing the distance between us. "Save those pretty tears for later, hm? You are going to need them." ▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎ #1 in Captive #2 in CEO #2 in Forcedlove #2 in Italian #2 in Mafiaboss #2 in Character development #3 in Darkromance #3 in Fear #3 in Panicattacks #4 in Manipulation #4 in Plottwist #7 in Billiona
