[Evening]
For the past few days, Collin had been watching Kathrine discreetly.
The day she showed up at his doorstep, he had been certain she was there to meet him. But her sudden retreat, the way she had looked startled and left without a word, had unsettled him far more than her arrival ever could. That single moment was enough to put him on edge, sharp enough that he began keeping an eye on her movements.
The search for Kira's murderer was still ongoing. Despite how clean the execution had been, Collin could not shake the unease crawling beneath his skin. He had been careful. Meticulous. And yet, caution had become his constant companion.
More than fear, curiosity gnawed at him.
How close were Kathrine and Ethan really? And more importantly, had Ethan told her what he had seen that day?
