Single Mother of a Werewolf Baby

Chapter 28: World Hacker Alliance

Eleanor went to the kitchen to instruct the staff about dinner. She specifically asked them to cook some of Ethan’s favorite dishes. Her voice was calm, her expression composed... but there was a hint of weariness in her gaze.

After giving the instructions, she walked upstairs to her study and called the guard captain. Within minutes, he entered the room and stood at attention.

"Miss," he said respectfully, "we’ve already cleared the damages. By tomorrow morning, the broken pillar will be fully repaired. The command center informed us that all the assailants have been taken care of. There’s no remaining threat. As for what the command center did, we weren’t told."

Eleanor nodded. "Okay. I’ll speak with the command center myself. You may go now."

The guard captain hesitated. "I’m sorry, Miss. Please pardon our incompetence."

Eleanor shook her head. "It’s not your fault. We never expected a sniper to open fire in a residential area. Our AI system is designed to detect unauthorized access by living beings within the villa perimeter. But now that we’ve seen what desperate people are willing to do, we’ll expand the system’s range. The perimeter detection and notification protocols will be updated immediately."

She paused before adding gently, "Don’t blame yourself or your men. No one was hurt. This attack, if anything, exposed the blind spots in our defenses. Go and tell everyone... they didn’t fail. They protected me under heavy firepower, and I’m grateful."

The captain bowed his head and left the room.

Once alone, Eleanor picked up her phone and called the command center. A voice on the other end quickly responded.

"Ma’am. Here’s the current situation. After the boss gave the order, our hackers began attempting to breach the darknet site, but so far, they’ve failed. The firewall is strong and multi-layered. We’re trying various strategies to break through. The assailant leader told us that if he fails to complete the mission within one week, the assignment will be opened to other hit squads. Also, if he doesn’t personally confirm his failure, his account will be temporarily suspended. So, we have a one-week window to act. We’ll keep you informed of any updates."

"Understood," Eleanor said. "Send me the link and login information."

Seconds later, her phone buzzed with a secure message. Eleanor opened her desk drawer and pulled out a second phone... a sleek, matte-black Bittium Tough Mobile, untouched for over a year.

She powered it on and began typing. Her fingers flew across the screen in rapid motion, almost a blur. The interface loaded a secure shell. She bypassed the preliminary encryption easily, but the deeper she went, the more she frowned.

After five minutes, she leaned back in her chair.
