Caspian had been in it exactly once before. That day, he had stood in the doorway in a wrinkled shirt and been told to wait. Now he walked straight to the great desk at the far end and lowered himself into the leather chair behind it. It was too big for him. It had been made for a man who had sat in it for forty years.Jason shut the doors, locked them and came to stand in front of the desk."Sit," Caspian said."I'll stand, sir.""Jason. Sit."Jason hesitated, then took the chair opposite, his tablet on his knee."Andrew will panic. He is a doctor, not a fighter. He will need every ally he has." Caspian's voice dropped. "And he has one ally that nobody knows about. A son he kept in the shadows. A son who adores him, who has spent years planning to take over for him. A son who will not sit quietly while his father loses the company. He loves his father more than he loves his own safety. I heard it in his voice."Jason's eyes widened."Orion will have to step out of the dark," Caspian

Atlas's jaw tightened."Do you know who he is?""This is a police investigation, so you better stay out of this." The officer warned and Atlas was going to pull out his phone and call the Police chief when Caspian pressed his hand down. “I can't let you go with them, you're way above that.” “Way above the law or he's just being a coward?” Graycie played her stunt. “You're still talking?” Atlas was heading towards her but Caspian dashed him a cold stare."Don't."Atlas frowned. "Sir?""Don't make this worse." He said coldly. But Atlas wasn't buying this. He quickly stepped outside. “Who are you going to call? There's no need.” Graycie was already being led away. She turned her head toward Caspian.For the first time since their wedding disaster, she looked uncertain.Orion noticed it.Then he leaned closer to her as the officers moved them toward the elevators."Don't say anything."Caspian caught the whisper.

Sir Titan's office sat on the top floor of the hospital, behind a pair of tall oak doors.The portrait of Sir Titan on the wall watched over everything.Caspian had been in it exactly once before. That day, he had stood in the doorway in a wrinkled shirt and been told to wait. Now he walked straight to the great desk at the far end and lowered himself into the leather chair behind it. It was too big for him.

Sit."Jason hesitated, then took the chair opposite, his tablet on his knee.Caspian leaned back.
