Noah spared Vivi not a second glance. He drove through the gates of the residential complex, his focus unshaken, his mind set. The car eased to a stop outside the building where Sadie lived, but he made no move to step out.

Instead, he sat in silence, his gaze locked onto the illuminated window of her apartment. The glow from inside spilled faintly onto the night, steady and warm. Yet, no shadows flickered; no sign of movement stirred behind the curtains.
