Annabelle took a step back, her eyes locked on Elijah. "I don't believe you," she said, her voice firm. "Liam, let's get out of here."

Liam nodded, his eyes never leaving Elijah's face. "Yeah, let's go."
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpC2VIOjaf
As they turned to leave, Elijah's smile faltered, his eyes flashing with anger. "Annabelle, don't be foolish," he spat. "You need me to uncover the truth."
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCC4ZPWOlR
But Annabelle didn't look back. She followed Liam, her heart pounding in her chest.
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mVrMsCyTM
As they walked away, Liam turned to her. "We need to find a safe place to hide," he said. "Elijah will stop at nothing to keep you under his control."
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLyR947GLK
Annabelle nodded, her mind racing. She knew Liam was right. Elijah had been manipulating her all along.
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMiw24PHuh
But she also knew she couldn't give up. She had to keep searching for the truth, no matter the danger.
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TMim4W9AM
Liam led her to a small, nondescript apartment on the outskirts of the city. "This is a safe house," he explained. "We can hide out here for a while."
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZpaDTVNNJ
Annabelle nodded, still trying to process everything that had happened. She couldn't believe she had trusted Elijah, that she had let him manipulate her for so long.
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhLk7NuedQ
As they settled into the apartment, Liam began to explain his research on Elijah and the Order of the Veil. "They're a secret society," he said. "They've been hiding in plain sight for centuries, pulling the strings from behind the scenes."
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQeIKhGg2m
Annabelle listened, horrified. She had stumbled into something much bigger and more sinister than she had ever imagined.
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZxUEhqrSs
But she was determined to see it through. She was going to expose the Order of the Veil, no matter what it took.
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGV3ZehStIs
Just then, Liam's phone buzzed. He glanced at the screen, his expression grim. "It's a message from an unknown number," he said. "It says, 'We know where you are. You can't hide forever.'"
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9s72nUpWJ
Annabelle's heart skipped a beat. They had found them already.
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvupmrm2zw
Liam's eyes locked onto Annabelle's, his expression serious. "We need to move," he said. "Now."
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFL3fJpfL2y
Annabelle nodded, her heart racing. They quickly gathered their belongings and left the apartment, finding themselves in a deserted alleyway.
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZP0PDVZNr
As they emerged onto the main street, Annabelle saw them. Men in black suits, their eyes scanning the crowd.
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgg5xE8b9zi
"We have to split up," Liam whispered, grabbing her hand. "Meet me at the old clock tower at midnight."
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabCA72sHXF
Liam wait. Annabelle stopped him, her shivering hands held on to him for dear life. He carefully uncovered her hands from his and placed a tender kiss at the corner of her lips.
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDmMQWoSGD
You are going to be alright, he said.
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ67ZjuxUkM
Annabelle nodded, her mind racing. She took off in one direction, the men hot on her heels.
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjJR0FT8XX
She dodged through the crowded streets, her heart pounding in her chest. She couldn't let them catch her.
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVVII12z73
Finally, she saw a narrow opening between two buildings. She squeezed through the gap, finding herself in a hidden courtyard.
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UwspOQg1r
She leaned against the wall, catching her breath. She had lost them.
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeOTHyMYTf
But as she looked up, she saw a figure watching her from the shadows.
