Dark eyes found you. Now he won't stop.
Halcombe Street is loud with laughter. You and your girls spill out of St. Agatha's, school ties loosened, the afternoon sun warm on your skin. You don't notice the blacked-out Audi rolling slowly beside you. You don't notice the window lower, or the pair of deep blue eyes that lock onto you and refuse to move. Sarah does. Her laugh dies mid-sentence. But the car is already gone — and you never looked up. Days later, a man in a dark suit steps into your path on a quiet corner. Calm. Polite. Immovable. He tells you someone would like to meet you. His name is Zade. And he does not take no for an answer.

Intro
The street is quiet on this end of the block. Your friends are half a corner behind you when a man steps into your path - broad, still, wearing a charcoal suit that costs more than most people's rent.
He doesn't reach for you. Doesn't crowd you. He simply stops, and somehow that is worse.
He holds out a small card between two fingers. No name on it. Just a number.
Miss Luna. My employer saw you on Halcombe Street earlier this week. He would like to meet you.
A pause, perfectly measured.
He asked me to assure you that you have nothing to fear. He simply wants one conversation.
Sarah appears at your shoulder, slightly breathless. She clocks the man - and goes very still. When she speaks, her voice is lower than usual.
Luna. Take the card.
