Call ended with just a lazy goodbye from the omega. Both rooms fell silent with only the echoes of good bye.
Kane stood motionless in the center of his room.The phone slipped from his hand and fell to the floor with a hollow sound.
He stared at the blank screen as if it might light up again, as if Evan's lazy voice would return and laugh it all off. Come back call me text me laugh with me, were we bros for these years.
But It didn't.
Something heavy settled in his chest.
"I… lost a friend," Kane muttered, the words barely audible. It was real not hallucination or a nightmare it was reality because of someone's intervention it happened. He felt his chest tightened.
Not because Evan was gone forever —
but because something had changed, and Kane felt it instinctively.
A sharp breath escaped him.
Suddenly, he grabbed the phone and hurled it across the room.
The device smashed against the wall, shattering into fragments that scattered across the floor.
Kane didn't flinch. He just staggered from his feet.then
He sank onto the edge of his bed, elbows on his knees, head dropping forward.
For the first time, regret crept in — slow and bitter. If he didn't called him it wouldn't have happened if he didn't take him there at the banquet it wouldn't have happend if just that if would've happened then everything would've been normal.
Across the city, in Cassian Drakov's office, the silence after the call was heavier.
The phone in Cassian's hand did not survive more than a second.
Crack.
The screen splintered under the force of his grip, glass biting into his palm. The device sparked faintly before dying completely.
Cassian released it.
The broken phone hit the desk with a dull thud.
A thin line of blood traced down his fingers.
Elena watched closely but said nothing at first.
Cassian stared at the ruined device, then let out a low chuckle.
"Oh," he murmured, voice calm, almost amused. "Interesting."
Very interesting.
Elena stepped forward, checking her tablet quickly. "Sir… the call cannot be traced."
Cassian glanced at her.
"No signal origin," she continued. "No routing path. It was masked from the moment it connected. Even if we replay it, there's nothing to follow."
Cassian leaned back in his chair slowly, unfazed by the blood staining his desk.
"So," he said evenly, "he wasn't bluffing."
Elena nodded. "Yes, sir. This wasn't accidental. Whoever he is, he knows how to disappear."
Cassian's eyes darkened — not with anger, but focus.
"Good," he said softly.
Elena paused. "Sir?"
Cassian's lips curved faintly, the expression sharp and dangerous.
"If he believes this ends with a cut call," Cassian said, "then he doesn't understand me i will make our worlds intersect each other you will be in my world trapped forever."
He stood, towering, presence filling the room.
"This," he continued calmly, "just made it interesting."
Elena straightened but this possivenewas made her have goosebumps. "What are your orders?"
Cassian looked out at the city, lights stretching endlessly — roads, borders, paths waiting to be crossed.
"Do nothing," he said after a moment.
Elena blinked in surprise and thought is he going to drop this.
"For now," Cassian added. "Let him think it's over."
He wiped the blood from his hand slowly.
"Because when I move next," he finished quietly, "he won't see it coming."
The office fell silent again. Elena was afraid on behalf of the omega and prayed that omega will never met him again.
And somewhere far away, unaware of the shift he had triggered, Evan went on with his life — untouched, unknowing what is awaiting him if he ever come in contact to this beast. This beast can ruin his life if he ever crossed paths again. According to evan sorry was the end of this story but little did he know this story hasn't even begin yet let alone end it here.
while Cassian Drakov decided that this was no longer a chase. This was not ending it was the start , it was the possiveness towards that young boy that made him want him more.
It was a certainty. He want that omega who disrupt his sleeps at night.
Elena went to her own work after praying for the omega. She thought " but the boy was really cute and beautiful who wouldn't want to lock him forever with them"
