Chapter 1918

| always thought adults were just a bit dull, forever spinning tales of their youthful glory days. They often

mentioned this enigmatic group called The Silent Shadows, and | imagined they were pretty intimidating. But

after meeting Isaac, it turned out The Silent Shadows weren't all they were cracked up to be.

Out of the blue, Alec noticed that a bunch of people around us were giving us the once-over. Swere

engrossed in newspapers on the street, others were casually sipping coffee in a café, and a few were just

passersby chatting away. Their behavior was odd, yet every single one of them had their eyes glued to us with

an intense stare.

Alec got this uneasy feeling. Could these folks be on to us already?

"Run!" Alec yelled, grabbing my hand and taking off at a sprint before | could even process what was happening.

Those everyday people dropped whatever they were doing and started chasing us.

"Why are they after us?" | asked, gasping for air.

"Well, what do you think? Hanging around S Corporation's HQ like that was bound to get us noticed!"

"Hanging around? We were just standing there for a second!"

| hadn't realized that during this time, S Corporation was so jumpy, ready to react at the slightest hint of trouble.

"Stop!" One guy blocked our way. He was wearing the unmistakable uniform of the Costello family's security

"Behave!" the lead guard barked, frowning. Two other Costello family scouts looked us over skeptically. "This

one's dressed funny. Could they be from The Silent Shadows?"

"Don't know, best we take them back first."

The Costello family guards quickly ushered us into S Corporation. We didn't put

"Don't let their looks fool you. They fight like pros," one guard said. "They've got to

be from The Silent Shadows-how else could they be so skilled?"

"We're not from The Silent Shadows! We need to see Ms. Sophie."

"Ms. Sophie? Do you think just anyone can meet her?"

"Fine, then. | want to see Colby. Surely, we can meet Colby?"

They stared at us like we'd lost our minds. The lead guard smirked, "You think Colby is just someone you can On

a whim? Neither Ms. Sophie nor Colby is going to see you."
