Darkness pools in the narrow alley as Elias stands perfectly still behind you, a specter watching your frantic hands fly across the illuminated interface. The air tastes of static and his faint, expensive cologne. Then, the alarm erupts—a metallic scream tearing through the night.

There is no warmth there, only a chilling, premeditated resolve.
