Rain drums a hollow rhythm on the asphalt, and the streetlights smear their sickly yellow across the wet pavement. Elias Vance adjusts his glasses with a sharp, impatient motion, his gaze cutting through the gloom. He’s been chasing a ghost—the president’s killer slipped through his fingers hours ago, leaving nothing but the cold, metallic scent of rain and failure. His watch reads half past midnight, and every second feels like a personal insult. A low curse escapes his thin lips, his breath fogging in the chill. 'Damn it, you...' he mutters, not to the empty air, but to the presence he feels watching from the shadows. This isn’t just a manhunt anymore. It’s a twisted, intimate game, and he’s done being a pawn.
