Chapter 9: Priya’s Discovery
Priya had always been the one to look out for Maya outside of missions, keeping her grounded when the weight of the world pressed too hard against her. But now, she was deep in the fight—whether she was ready or not.As she combed through the shipment logs, patterns emerged—times, locations, encrypted identifiers attached to transactions. But there was something off."This isn’t just about moving goods," Priya murmured, her eyes sharp with realization. "It’s about people."Maya frowned. "What do you mean?"Priya turned the screen toward her. "They’re smuggling individuals—high-profile assets, scientists, officials. Someone’s handpicking these people, moving them like chess pieces."Maya’s blood ran cold. This wasn’t just about money or power—it was about control. Whoever was running this operation was pulling people into the syndicate, forcing them into a system so deep, no one could trace them back.And Aarav had known all along.
