The Tycoon's Pawn

That night, Kiara found herself unable to sleep. Garrett's sudden reappearance in the shadows brought back all the old fears she had thought they'd left behind. She had hoped that with Ruddy gone, they could finally put the past to rest, but now it seemed like the battle wasn't over yet.

Mike found her sitting on the couch in their living room, staring out the window at the city lights. He sat down beside her, wrapping an arm around her shoulders.

Kiara leaned into him, resting her head on his shoulder. "I'm just tired. I thought we were done with all of this."

Mike kissed the top of her head, his touch comforting. "We will be. Garrett's just another obstacle, and we've already dealt with worse. We'll get through this too."

Kiara closed her eyes, taking comfort in his words. They had faced so much together, and they had come out stronger. Garrett was a threat, but he wasn't unbeatable.
