Daniel pressed a slow kiss to my forehead.

“You scare the hell out of me,” he murmured.

I didn’t respond. I didn’t know how.”

Eventually, exhaustion pulled me under.

I drifted off to the sound of his heartbeat..

I woke up to my phone vibrating under my pillow.

I blinked, groggy, still warm from Daniel’s arms.

The screen showed a number without a name.

An international code.

A number I hadn’t seen in years.

My chest tightened.

I glanced at Daniel–still asleep–then slid out of bed quietly. I answered.

“Hello?”

A woman’s voice.

One I thought I’d never hear again.

“Amy,” she said. “Listen carefully.”

I froze, gripping the phone too tightly.

“…Why are you calling?”

“There isn’t time,” she said. “You’re in danger. And it’s not about Daniel. They’re not after him.”

A cold wave edged down my spine.

“They’re coming for you,” she continued. “And it’s not just Elias. Leave before sunrise.”

“What? Who-”

The line cut dead.

I stared at the phone, heart pounding, breath tight.

Daniel stirred behind me.

“Amy?”

I turned. His voice was rough from sleep. His wolf was already alert, sensing my reaction.

He sat up fast.

“What happened?”

My hands were shaking.

“I… got a call.”

“From who?”

“I don’t know.” My voice felt thin. “But whoever it was… they knew everything. They said Elias isn’t the only one coming. And they’re coming for me specifically. They said I need to leave before sunrise.”

Daniel’s entire body shifted into an Alpha stance.

“Amy.” he said slowly, “this isn’t just a territory threat.”

“I know.”

“This is about your bloodline.”

I swallowed hard.

“Yes.”

He stood, walked to me, and cupped my face with both hands.

When I finally got up hours later, Daniel was already awake, leaning against the doorframe with that rigid expression he wore whenever something bothered him.

“We’re increasing security again,” he said. “I don’t care if you think it’s too much.”

I rubbed my forehead. “Daniel, we can’t stay locked in here. Carter Holdings is already running on half power after the fire. If we don’t show up today, it gets worse.”

He didn’t like it. His jaw tightened the way it always did when he was holding back a long argument. “Then I’m sending double the guards.”

“I’m going,” I repeated. “But thank you.”

He didn’t push it further. He just followed me to the elevator.

By the time I got to Carter Holdings, the entire building looked off. People were scattered in small groups. whispering. Whole floors were half–staffed. The arson had only hit one department directly, but the fallout spread everywhere.

When I walked into Operations, the manager, Joan, rushed over.

“We’re missing transactions,” she said. “Not small ones. Several connected to the shell companies we traced to Mark.”

I felt a headache forming. “How many?“:

“A dozen so far,” she said. “Maybe more. They vanished from the audit logs.”

IT had its own mess. When I got to the server floor, Ravi and two techs were huddled over a workstation.

“We found unusual logins,” he said. “Someone accessed restricted financial folders using a legitimate employee ID. But the timestamps don’t match the employee’s location.”

“So someone cloned a profile?”

“More like someone inside approved access they shouldn’t have,” he replied.

The inside part made my stomach turn.

I made it back to the main lobby, and that was when I saw Clara.

She stood at reception like she owned the place, smiling in a way she never used to.

“Morning, Amy,” she said, “I thought I should come in and clear up the rumors about me. Too many people talking.”

She had never spoken to me like that. Not even when she tried manipulating her way through the company months ago. There was something bold in her posture, something smug.

“You can book an appointment with HR,” I said.

Her smile widened. “I’d rather speak directly to you. It concerns something you’ll want to know.”

I looked at her for a moment. She wasn’t afraid. Not even nervous. Clara never acted this fearless unless she believed she had leverage. And that bothered

“We’ll talk later,” I said, already walking awe.

“Sure,” she called after me. “I’ll be around.”

Her tone stuck with me all the way to my office.

As soon as I stepped inside, there was a sealed envelope on my desk. No name, no return address. The handwriting wasn’t familiar.

I opened it slowly. Inside were printed copies of internal emails—messages from Clara’s old assistant, sent

to an unknown address. But the email metadata told me enough. Someone inside Carter Holdings had been feeding financial details to Elias.

Of all the people.

I shut the office door and called Bella immediately.

“Something is wrong,” I said. “I need you to dig into any communication between Elias and past Carter employees. Especially anyone tied to Clara.”

Bella didn’t waste time. “Send me the copies. I’ll handlet.”

I filed the documents away and continued working through the backlog. Every department report felt like peeling another layer off a problem that wouldn’t end. hy afternoon. I needed a break. I checked my phone and saw three missed messages from Daniel. And one from his mother.

I’m leaving the territory for a bit. Your mother had a small complication, so I’m going to stay with her. Don’t worry. I’ll update you soon.

I read it twice.

My mother had complications? No one told me anything. And Daniel’s mother leaving without warning? She never stepped out of the territory without a reason.

I called her, but it rang out.

Something felt wrong, but I forced myself to stay focused. The company was already drowning. Losing focus now wouldn’t help anything.

I stayed in the office until early evening, going through system reports. Before I packed up for the day, I checked the digital folder containing the fire footage. I had seen it once already, but with everything happening today, I needed to go over it again.

The first few minutes showed nothing unusual. Then, around the time of the explosion, a figure entered the server room. Not Mark. The build didn’t match. The way the person walked didn’t match either.

I zoomed in as far as I could without making the grainy quality worse. Even blurred, even partially obscured, I could tell the person didn’t hesitate at any point. They knew the layout. They knew where the fire would cause the most damage.

A chill went through me.
