Emily and Alex emerged into the night air, gasping.
They'd made it.
But at what cost?
Emily's thoughts swirled.
Victor's threat lingered.
What did he plan?
As they walked away from the building, Emily's phone buzzed.
Sarah's text flashed on the screen.
"Meet me at the safe house."
Emily's heart skipped a beat.
What had Sarah found?
Emily and Alex arrived at the safe house.
Sarah's expression was grim.
"What is it?" Emily asked.
Sarah hesitated.
"Victor's men are closing in."
Emily's world tilted.
They were running out of time.
"We need to leave the city," Alex said.
Emily nodded.
Their escape plan was set in motion.
But Victor's reach was vast.
Could they truly escape?
