The trap

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Sarah's voice trembled as she stepped closer to Alex, her fingers brushing against his arm. Her eyes were filled with concern, but there was also something else — something she couldn't deny. It was as if every moment spent with him was pulling her closer, despite the confusion swirling in her heart.

Alex met her gaze, his own expression unreadable. "I don't have a choice," he said quietly, the weight of his words pressing down on him. "It's the only way."

But deep down, he wasn't so sure anymore. The mission, the danger... it all felt like it was closing in on him, like a dark cloud wrapping itself tighter around him with each passing moment. Yet, there was something more at play, something deeper. Something between him and Sarah that neither of them had fully acknowledged yet, though it was growing undeniable.
