Chapter 13 - The Fall of the Traitors

The police officers stepped forward, pulling out two pairs of steel handcuffs.

"Gwen Ruiz and Julian Vance," the lead officer declared. "You are under arrest for grand larceny, corporate fraud, and conspiracy."

"No! Get your hands off me!" Gwen screamed hysterically, thrashing around as the cold steel clicked tightly around her wrists. Her gold sequined dress looked ridiculous as she was forcibly turned toward the exit. "Julian, do something! You promised you'd protect me!"

Julian didn't move. He offered no resistance as the officer pulled his arms behind his back, clicking the handcuffs into place.

As he was led past Nora, Julian stopped, looking at her with hollow, desperate eyes. "Nora... what am I supposed to do now?"

Nora looked at him calmly, adjusting her fur stole. "You have twenty-four hours to pack your remaining personal items from my house, Julian. Though... I believe your new residence won't require much luggage."
