The gray-clad man stood in the narrow alley, the Colosseum's ancient silhouette casting a shadow across his face. The air was heavy with the scent of damp stone and lingering traces of exhaust from passing cars. The distant murmur of Rome's nightlife contrasted sharply with the tension coiling in his chest. His mind was consumed by a scheme aimed at upending the global balance of power, its details cloaked in secrecy but its implications stark.

He slipped the burner phone he'd given to Slovek into his coat pocket, the device warm from his touch. It had served its purpose—an undetectable handoff in the chaos. Yet now, a creeping unease settled over him. The stolen Norwegian drone was the linchpin of this operation, a sophisticated instrument of destruction ready to be deployed. But could he truly trust those around him?

A faint hum buzzed in his ear as a voice crackled through his earpiece, almost imperceptible against the backdrop of the city. "Status update. How is the operation proceeding?"

The gray-clad man's lips twisted into a calculating smile, though his heart raced. "On track. The drone is prepped, and our operatives are in position. The leaders are scheduled to be taken out in five days. Their replacements are already briefed and prepared."

"And Slovek?" The voice, edged with impatience, sent a jolt through him.

Slovek's death was a complication he hadn't anticipated, but he maintained control. "Slovek's unfortunate end will be addressed. His replacement is briefed and ready. Kristensen's interference is an inconvenience but manageable." A flicker of doubt crossed his mind—had anyone seen the handoff? Was the leak already in motion?

"We can't afford any mistakes," the voice warned, sharp and urgent. "The world is watching. Ensure the new regime takes hold without disruption."

Ending the call, the gray-clad man focused on the hidden base ahead, where the murmur of activity increased as he approached. Engineers and analysts bustled around, illuminated by the glow of multiple monitors, finalizing the drone's deployment. The smell of solder and machine oil hung thick in the air, mingling with the tension crackling in the room.

As he moved, a memory from the past flickered to life—he recalled the day he had recruited a young woman, his protégé. The sun had been setting over Berlin, casting long shadows in the conference room. She had sat across from him, cool and composed, yet with an undeniable spark. "You have the instincts we need," he'd said, studying her carefully. "You can navigate worlds others can't."

Her gaze had hardened at the thought of the risks, but she nodded, accepting the challenge. "I can handle it."

He had seen potential in her then—now, that potential felt like a threat.

"Find out everything about Kristensen's partner," he ordered his top hacker, shaking off unsettling thoughts. "Her connections, her past missions, any recent communications with him. I want to know exactly who she is."

As the hacker began to dig, a nervous anticipation coursed through him. When the hacker finally spoke, the words hit him like a punch: "Bree Schneider is with the BND. She's built a reputation for competence and secrecy, specializing in high-level operations."

His heart raced. Bree? It couldn't be. "Continue."

"Additionally, she has a mysterious past. She's linked to a significant case involving the assassination of a former diplomat, and her current involvement with Kristensen raises questions. They worked together in Argentina, but reports show she took an extended holiday in Norway with him before returning to her duties. Notably, she has no marital ties or children."

The revelation sent a jolt through him. If she had a connection to one of the leaders targeted for assassination, it could complicate everything. "What else?"

"There's also a rumor she's been using a false identity in her undercover work," the hacker revealed, excitement in his voice. "If that identity gets exposed, it could blow up in our faces."

131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhPgYxX543
The gray-clad man considered this information, his mind racing. Bree was not just an ally; she was a potential liability. "We must tread carefully. Kristensen is not alone, and he is more dangerous than ever."

As he left the control room, the weight of the imminent strike pressed down on him, the countdown timer flashing in his mind—120 hours and ticking. A sense of foreboding grew as he pondered Bree's potential for treachery and how her past might come back to haunt them. Each piece of information could be the key to their downfall—or their success.

As he stepped out, he spotted Slovek's replacement, a figure with cold, resolute eyes. "What about Kristensen?" the replacement asked, his tone grave.

"Kristensen is a threat we cannot ignore. Handle him if he gets too close. Our investment in this operation is too great to fail."

With the countdown looming, the gray-clad man understood the stakes were higher than ever. The drone was vital, but the broader agenda was even more ambitious: not merely to disrupt, but to reshape the global order. And as he walked away, he couldn't shake the thought that the very woman he had once recruited might now be the key to his plans—if only he could stay one step ahead.
