Raiden crosses the room in three long strides, his presence both comforting and overwhelming. “Don't worry,” he says, reaching for my hand. His skin is warm against mine, calloused from years of combat training. “I've dispatched guards to investigate.”
The walkie-talkie at his hip crackles to life. “Alpha, this is Garrison at the east perimeter.” The voice comes through with static interference. “We've completed a full sweep of the sector. No signs of intruders.”
