MIA’S POV
The hallway outside my apartment is silent again.
Jason is gone.
But his words linger in my mind like a broken recording.
The FBI has been watching your family for two years.
And guess who their inside informant is.
My fingers tighten around the phone.
“Ethan?”
No answer.
I pull the phone away and look at the screen.
Call ended.
Of course.
He hung up.
The timing feels too perfect.
Too convenient.
Suddenly, my quiet apartment doesn’t feel safe anymore.
I lock the door again.
Then I check it twice.
My heart is racing.
Ethan never told me anything about the FBI.
Not once.
If Jason is telling the truth…
That means the man I’m working for
The man controlling my life with a ridiculous contract
Might also be why my family is under investigation.
I press my palms
