She scoffs. "Do I look like a goddamn magician?" Her fingers don’t stop moving. "Five minutes. Maybe six."

Maxim exhales next to me, restless. Impatient. "Just get it done, Vika."

“Be a lot faster if you two stopped yakking at me.”

Alarms blare on the screen.

The sound is sharp, grating, like a warning siren before a bomb drops. “What’s that mean?” I ask.

Vika goes rigid, her expression shifting from cocky amusement to cold calculation.

"Shit." She leans closer, typing faster. "They’re getting close to breaking through.”

The air in the room changes instantly.

"How the hell is it still active?" Maxim demands, his voice tight. “Work faster.”

"Getting there." Vika’s tone is sharp, but her hands don’t stop moving. "Darren’s men are tracking in real-time. They’re bouncing the signal off multiple locations, narrowing in. It’s like breadcrumbs—every refresh gets them closer. God, I love this shit."

My entire body locks down. Cora is here. Vulnerable. Unprotected.

Vika hesitates. Not a good sign.

Then, she points to the screen.

A red marker disappears. Then another.

She curses again, hammering the keyboard. "I can do this, but I need more time."

"You don’t have time," I snap.

Her fingers blur over the keys. The screens flicker, glitch.

A new pulse. Red. Too close.

I grip the edge of the desk, every muscle in my body tensed. The thought of Cora in the next room, asleep, defenseless, vulnerable. I’m on my feet, ready to get her the fuck out of here.

"Vika." My voice is a growl.

"I’m working on it!"

She types so fast the keys blur under her fingers. Lines of code scroll. The signal flickers.

And then?—

The screen goes dark.

The alarms cut off.

The red markers disappear.

She collapses back in her chair, exhaling hard. "Tracker disabled." Her voice is tight, but victorious. “You’re welcome.”

Maxim exhales, rolling his shoulders. I don’t move.

My chest rises and falls slowly, controlled. The urge to go to the next room, wake Cora, and take her somewhere even safer is overwhelming—but that won’t solve this.

Darren will keep hunting her until he’s dead.
