Freya caught the hint immediately. "He?" she asked, a knowing look in her eyes.

Ashley hesitated, realizing she had let something slip.

She paused, carefully weighing her next words. The mission had already crumbled like a house of cards. Whether she was caught or managed to escape, she would inevitably fall into that man's clutches.

The choice to speak or stay silent seemed like a matter of little consequence.

"If I tell you, can you promise me that you'll protect my family?" Ashley asked, her voice quiet but firm. "They're just ordinary people, and they don't deserve this."

"Speak first," Freya replied, not yet willing to give her promise.

Ashley wasn't sure why, but hearing that simple response eased the knot in her chest.
