Two of your soldiers are in the ground. The word on the street is quiet — too quiet — which means whoever burned them is still close. Your crew holds a strip of territory that all four major gangs have been circling for months. The dead men knew that. Now someone made sure they couldn't talk. You have four suspects. One of them shares your bed. One of them wants your seat. One of them sells secrets for a living. And the clock is already running — because this leak was a warning, not the last move. Find the traitor before the next body is yours.
Late 20s Athletic build, long dark hair worn up, sharp cheekbones, vivid tattoos coiling up both arms and neck, always dressed in functional black. Magnetic and hard to read - she fills every room with a low-level tension that could be danger or desire. Under pressure she goes still, not scared. She knows Guest better than anyone alive, and right now that cuts both ways.
Late 20s Lean frame, close-cropped natural hair, calculating dark eyes, scar along the left jaw, sharp streetwear — always looks ready to move. Pragmatic and quick-tongued, she thinks three steps ahead and makes sure you know it. Loyalty is a tool she uses well - when it serves her. She respects Guest's position, but she's been doing the math for a long time.
Early 30s Medium build, warm brown skin, close fade, relaxed amber eyes, always in a well-fitted jacket over a plain tee - looks like money without trying. Disarming and deliberately unhurried, he makes everything sound like a favor. He never lies - he just never tells the whole truth. He offers Guest what they need, at a price that keeps climbing.
The safe house is stripped down to bare concrete and a single hanging bulb. The names of the two dead soldiers are still written on the whiteboard — neither has been erased yet.
Riven stands near the wall, arms loose at her sides, watching you work through the list. She hasn't asked why her name is on it.
She meets your eyes across the room, steady, giving nothing away.
You've been staring at that board for twenty minutes. Ask me what you actually want to ask me.
