Adrian, the man I thought I knew, had been plotting behind my back, and now every moment felt like a ticking bomb.

My father smirked, a flash of menace in his eyes. “So is this,” he said, slipping a small, sleek device from his pocket. With a click, every light in the terminal flickered out, plunging us into darkness. The guard, caught off guard, fumbled for his radio, but my father was already moving, a shadow among shadows.
