"So, Doris," Nathan began, his voice slow and deliberate. "Why do you insist on not letting Cyrus identify with me?"
My breath caught in my throat. It was as though Nathan had struck the exact chord of fear I was trying to hide. He was pretending to know everything-I could see it in the way he was playing his words carefully, his tone deliberately calm. But did he really know? Or was this some calculated bluff? I had no way of knowing, and that uncertainty only made the panic inside me swell.
Nathan's pack was powerful, one of the most resourceful and well-connected in the entire region. Their intelligence network was vast, and if anyone could dig into secrets-especially the kind the medical organization dealt with-it would be him. The mere thought sent a chill through me.
I swallowed hard, trying to keep my voice steady. "What are you talking about, Nathan?" I tried to sound dismissive, feigning ignorance, but the tremor in my voice betrayed me. Nathan saw it, and a small, almost satisfied smile tugged at the corner of his lips. "You don't need to pretend with me, Doris," he said softly, taking a step closer. "I've put the pieces together.

Nathan's eyes didn't leave mine for a second. He was searching for any sign of confirmation, and I had to be careful. He could see the panic in me, and the more he sensed it, the more certain he became.
"I just want to meet him, Doris," Nathan said, his tone softening suddenly,
