We’re not out of this yet.

Not even close.

Jase

She’s taking control.

Not just helping.

Not just reacting.

Leading.

And damn if that doesn’t hit something deep.

“You’ve got a plan?” I ask.

She nods once.

Sharp.

Focused.

“Yeah.”

“Let’s hear it.”

A faint smirk touches her lips—

Even now.

Even here.

“We hold.”

I blink.

“…we what?”

“We hold,” she repeats.

“They think you’re the threat.”

“They’re not wrong.”

“Exactly,” she says.

“So we make them keep thinking that.”

I see it then.

The angle.

The shift.

The strategy.

“They push in expecting resistance from you,” she continues.
