Chapter 31: The Depths of Deceit
As Marcus reviewed the papers Tyrese had brought him, the flickering light in his office made shadows on his desk. With each passing second, the weight of betrayal grew heavier. Marcus's grip on the papers got tighter. Every word on them reminded him of the betrayal that had brought him here. Tyrese, the quiet hacker Marcus had trusted, had been giving false information to the other groups, leading Marcus right into the traps they had set for him."Why, Tyrese?"

His empire, which used to be a sign of power and control, was falling apart, and he was at the center of it all.Tyrese, who used to be his friend but is now his enemy, had told him about the other group's last push, but Marcus had already known it was coming. The city was ready to explode, and all it needed was a spark.His phone rang, and he looked at the screen. It was Sierra. Her message was simple but scary: "Marcus, there's still time."
