Tomorrow was no longer a promise—it was here, and with it came Kalmia's reckoning. My Aston Martin purred awake, low and smooth, like a predator stretching after sleep. Its voice wasn't just sound—it was a vibration threading through me, steady and alive, almost convincing me I had a heartbeat of my own. The road ahead curled through a landscape draped in mist and shadowed hills, the sort of scene mortals might linger over in poems or paintings. But for me, the world outside was a blur. My attention was captured by the woman at my side.
