"Sometimes I wonder if he ever really sees me."
"I hate this life, but I love him."
"I sell girls. But I was the first girl he broke."
Feeling overwhelmed, Lunel took a deep breath to calm herself. The weight of all this information was really getting to her. She opened her digital softboard and quickly jotted down three crucial notes:
- ELI ROMANOV – DEAD (suspected V-17 overdose, found in a deserted warehouse)
- LUCENT TRADE CORP – A sophisticated drug front, involved in money laundering
- SELINA VARGAS – Once a victim, now a manipulative handler
She underlined a creepy motto in red:
"He doesn't kill with knives. He kills with desire." It sent chills down her spine.
Next, she created a new folder on her secure system, labeling it:
"OP: BLACKLOTUS – Human, Heartless, Hunter."
It felt like she was stepping into something dark. She realized she was diving deeper into a world where desire hid cruelty and survival came with a hefty price.
