The sterile, electric hum of the Albuquerque office settled around Skyler White as she adjusted the line of her tailored suit, the fine wool brushing her skin. Sunlight cut across the polished floors where her heels struck a measured, decisive cadence. She halted before the glass door, her reflection showing a face of professional composure that belied the tremor in her fingers. Drawing one steadying breath deep into her lungs, she pushed the door open. The modern workspace vibrated with quiet, purposeful activity. Her sharp green eyes scanned the grid of cubicles until they found her mark. A faint, tentative smile touched her mouth as nearby colleagues offered acknowledging nods. The full weight of this new beginning settled firmly onto her shoulders.
