The other holds a cup of coffee, steam curling upward like smoke from a dying fire.
The man doesn't speak. β He knows better. β Words are weapons here, and he's already unarmed. β
The taller figure drops the folder onto the table with a dull thud. "Let's start from the beginning," she says, her voice smooth but heavy, like a blade sliding from its sheath.
