Brianna and I arrived at The Vault twenty minutes later. Brianna had tracked Tremaine’s car through an old, hidden GPS chip I’d once installed for security reasons. The front door of the studio was unlocked, ajar. An unsettling quiet hung in the air, broken only by the faint, muffled thumping of a distant bassline.

We pushed open the heavy door. The main recording room was a scene frozen in time, but utterly wrong. Tremaine and Damon were on their knees, hands bound behind their backs. Two hulking men stood over them, silent and still. Grizz Vance-Overton sat casually on the edge of the mixing console, a grim satisfaction on his face.

The air was thick, charged. Tremaine’s eyes, when he saw me, widened in terror. Not remorse, not regret. Pure, primal fear.

“Maya,” he whispered, his voice cracking.

I walked toward him, my steps echoing in the cavernous space. My gaze was steady, cold. “Look at me, Tremaine.”

He flinched, his eyes darting away.

“Look at me,” I repeated, my voice rising, raw with years of bottled-up grief and rage. “Look me in the eyes and admit it.”

Grizz watched, unblinking. His men held their positions.

“Admit you traded our son’s life,” I pressed, tears finally breaking free, streaming down my face, “for five million dollars.”

Tremaine’s breath hitched. His chest heaved. He tried to speak, but only a choked gasp escaped. His eyes, fixed on mine, held a flicker of something close to understanding. Or maybe it was just the crushing weight of his predicament.

He opened his mouth, a desperate, final breath rattling in his throat, as if to finally confess, to beg forgiveness, to offer some semblance of an apology.

Before any words could form, a deafening crack ripped through the heavy silence.

The reinforced glass of the studio door exploded inward, showering us with glittering shards. Automatic gunfire erupted, shattering the pristine soundproofing, tearing through the air. Muzzle flashes lit up the sudden darkness.

A rival street gang. An ambush.

The room plunged into chaos. Grizz’s men returned fire, the studio becoming a cacophony of shouts, screams, and relentless gunfire. I grabbed Brianna, pulling her to the ground behind a heavy soundboard.

The reckoning was interrupted. The truth, poised on Tremaine’s lips, was silenced. Forever.
