I leaned forward slowly in my seat, voice lowering dangerously.

But that means they’re searching.”

And if the Vincents were searching personally-

Then we had far less time than we thought.

Amber went very still after I finished speaking.

Not frightened.

Thinking. 1

Then her eyes narrowed slightly.

“Jason…”

I looked toward the screen again.

“Gabriel knew.”

A pause.

“He knew you were Cronos.”

Silence filled the car instantly.

Her voice had gone colder now. Sharper.

The same tone she used whenever she noticed something everyone else missed.

“He didn’t even try to hide it,” she continued. “He specifically called you for collaboration with his corporation.”

A pause.

“And then casually mentioned Phoenix Ashes separately.”

I felt it then.

The shift in the conversation I had missed while focusing on the threat toward the children.

“He already separated us into categories,” Amber said quietly.

Her eyes locked onto mine through the screen.

“You weren’t Jason Sun to him.”

A beat.

“You were Cronos.”

Cold realization settled heavily in my chest.

Most people still treated Cronos like a corporation.

An entity.

A system.

4/5

Only a handful of people understood that I personally controlled nearly every meaningful operational layer.

d Gabriel Vincent had spoken like someone who already knew exactly who he was talking to.

Not guessing.

Knowing.

“He was testing reactions,” I murmured slowly.

Amber nodded once.

“And sending a message.”

Action

Jason POV

I leaned back slowly against the seat, replaying the conversation inside my head.

Every pause.

Every carefully chosen word.

“I’ve heard wonderful things about Alex and Alice.”

Not from the school.

From surveillance.

“I was hoping to secure business with your corporation.’

Not a request.

An acknowledgment.

Gabriel Vincent knew exactly how much power Cronos actually held.

And if he knew that-

Then the Vincents likely had far deeper intelligence networks inside the country than we originally believed.

Amber crossed her arms slowly.

“He wasn’t introducing himself.”

“He

A pause. 1

“He was letting us know he already sees the board.”

The board.

The game.

The pieces.

And somehow, that realization disturbed me more than the direct threat itself.

Because people like Gabriel Vincent did not speak casually.

Every sentence carried intention.

Every implication was measured.

Which meant the real message hidden beneath the call was simple.

I know who you are.

I know where your children are.

And now you know I’m watching too.

My jaw tightened instinctively.

Amber noticed immediately.

ason.’

Her voice softened slightly.

“He called instead of acting.”

I looked toward her again.

“He’s probing first.”

Testing boundaries.

Testing responses. 1

Testing weaknesses.

Which meant one important thing.

The Vincents still weren’t completely certain what we knew.

Good.

Because uncertainty was dangerous.

And dangerous people made mistakes.

The drive back to the fairy house felt longer than usual.

Not because of traffic.

Because for the first time since this began, the threat no longer felt distant.

Gabriel Vincent had called me directly.

Mentioned my children directly.

And made it very clear he knew exactly who I was beneath the polished corporate image.

He had entered our lives intentionally.

Which meant one thing.

We could no longer afford to remain reactive.

By the time I arrived at the fairy house, my mind was already shifting strategies completely.

Defense alone would not work anymore.

Not against people like the Vincents.

Amber met me in the kitchen the moment I walked in.

The children had already been moved upstairs under the excuse of “movie quarantine.”

Though judging by the suspiciously quiet atmosphere overhead, Alex was probably trying to hack school security cameras from his tablet again.

Amber handed me a cup of coffee without speaking first.

A dangerous sign.

meant she was thinking too hard.

I took the cup and leaned against the counter.

“They’re escalating.”

Amber nodded immediately.

“They tested the school.”

“They tested us,” I corrected quietly.

Her eyes lifted toward mine instantly.

Because she understood the difference immediately. 1

The school inspection had not been about children.

It had been about reactions.

Timing.

Fear.

Gabriel Vincent wanted to see how quickly we moved when threatened.

I took a slow breath before finally saying the thing both of us had already realized independently.

“If they’re going to intrude into our lives…”

Amber straightened slightly.

“…then we need to intrude into theirs.”

Silence settled heavily between us afterward.

Not uncertainty.

Agreement.

Because this was no longer a situation we could solve quietly from behind secure walls and defensive protocols.

The Vincents had influence.

Money.

Political protection.

International reach.

Which meant we needed leverage.

Real leverage.

Amber moved first, pulling one of the command center screens onto the kitchen wall display.

Financial reports appeared instantly.
