Obsessive Love

The Game Begins

Alex nodded and made a quick note on his pad, his expression remaining professional. "I'll have the team start gathering information immediately, sir. Do you want me to dig into her family and friends as well?"

Ethan's eyes narrowed, his mind racing with possibilities. "Yes, everything. I want to know who she talks to, where she goes, what she eats for breakfast. I want a complete profile on her, and I want it yesterday."

Alex nodded, his expression unchanging. "I'll take care of it, sir. Is there anything else?"

Ethan leaned back in his seat, his eyes gazing out the window as he thought. "Yes, there's one more thing. Arrange a meeting with her professors, see if they can give us any insight into her academic performance and behavior. And...Alex?"

"Sir?"

"Keep this discreet. I don't want Annie to know what's going on."

Alex nodded, his expression understanding. "Of course, sir. I'll handle it personally."

Ethan nodded, his eyes still fixed on the window. "Good. Keep me updated."

As Alex left the car, Ethan's mind was already racing with plans for Annie. He couldn't wait to get her into his grasp, to make her his own. The game was on, and he was ready to play.
