Elena sat in her newly redesigned office, sipping a warm cup of coffee. The chaos of the past few weeks felt like a lifetime ago.

"Always, Elena," Marcus replied softly, his eyes lingering on hers with a warmth that went far beyond professional partnership. "Though, I think you deserve a break. A real one. No phones, no spreadsheets, no corporate takeovers."
