TAEMIN POV
The problem with being an Omega of the outlawed Crestwood line was that your sleep schedule was dictated by the gravitational pull of your twin's current life-or-death drama. And right now, Elias was locked in some palatial cage while simultaneously being the heart of a political war. Which meant I was wide awake and vibrating.
It was the deep, unsettling quiet of three in the morning. Even in RoanRidge, the busy, semi-neutral town where Elias and I had built BlackThorne Security, the night had a way of pressing its silence against the windows, making the shadows feel too thick.
