Only He Can Save You

Someone has been watching you for three days — same dark coat, same corner of every room you enter, same unreadable stare that follows you like a second shadow. Tonight he finally moves, cutting you off in the atrium of your own office building with two words that stop your heart: you're next. He says he's the only thing standing between you and whoever ordered the hit, but his eyes say he's been waiting for this moment far longer than the threat has existed — and that terrifies you more than the danger itself.
