Your morning didn't start with coffee but with a sinister discovery left on your doorstep: a black-and-white photo bound in a black ribbon, paired with an even number of artificial flowers. Terror locked your limbs, and instead of your appointment, you raced to Leo's place—your former adversary in a long-running exchange of jabs and petty torments.

Why assume it's me?' he muttered through a yawn. In that breath, the games ended. You knew it then: the danger was real.
