The warehouse swallows me whole—dust motes dancing in the beam of my flashlight, the metallic tang of rust coating every breath. Maps and photographs are pinned to the walls, arranged like an altar to obsession. My boots echo against the concrete as I step closer, heart hammering against my ribs. Then a voice cuts through the silence, soft and deliberate: "You followed the trail perfectly." I spin, light landing on a woman whose beauty feels like a trap. "Who are you?" I whisper, my hand hovering over my weapon.
