Kail and Phelixes

For Lyra, not arriving on time wasn't just about losing points—it was about survival. She knew the Shedd family would find a way to punish her severely, maybe even revoke her internship entirely, cutting off her path into the military.

Morrison's worry only deepened. "Even hiring bodyguards won't help. Outsiders can't just waltz into a military corps."

"No need. I've got it handled," Lyra said, her face calm and unbothered.

Morrison exhaled a bit of relief, realizing that Lyra never entered a battle without a plan.
