Her head throbbed with the remnants of last night's revelry, the memories of laughter and clinking glasses at the bar flooding back. She blinked, her eyes adjusting to the dimly lit room adorned with luxurious furnishings.With a groan, Deya sat up, her hand instinctively reaching for the bedside table where a glass of water awaited her parched throat.

She remembered the taste of alcohol on her lips, the crashing sound of the ocean waves, and the feeling of sand on her legs.Yet, amidst the haze of memories, there was a growing unease.

Micheal asked, noticing the urgency in Kelan's movements as he quickly made his way to a chair and sat down.Kelan took a deep breath, his eyes darting around the room before settling on Micheal.

The evening son was almost setting when they arrived and the sleek black porsche pulled up to the airport terminal meant for VIPs.Mello stepped out, his expression a mix of pride and sadness.
