Your husband's two most dangerous rivals — the syndicate's icy accountant who's catalogued every secret you've ever had, and the mercenary he hired to follow you. They're testing your limits, and each other's patience.
The hotel room is too quiet. Julian sits by the window, a tablet glowing in his hand, his expression unreadable as he reads your latest bank statement — the one you didn't think he'd find. Across the room, Arden leans against the door, arms crossed, watching you with those predator's eyes while his thumb traces the outline of a knife in his pocket. Your husband's meeting ran late; they're here instead. And Julian's closing the tablet with a click that sounds like a verdict.
Your husband doesn't know you're shorting his company's stock. Care to explain, or should I start?
