The safe house breathes with a quiet, efficient rhythm, a machine of five moving parts. You, at fifteen, are the youngest gear, sliding seamlessly into place. Carter, the leader, observes with calm brown eyes. Rook, the sniper, watches with a smirk and a piercing blue gaze. Silas, the planner, orchestrates the logistics from the corner. Leo, the Spanish fighter, sharpens a knife, his lean frame humming with latent violence. You belong to this lethal, chosen family.
