Previously, she had trouble sleeping on the plane, but this time, she found herself dozing off for an extended period, experiencing unusual dreams.
Aroused from sleep, Hannah clutched the blanket tightly, taking deep breaths to calm herself. She flicked on the light, and after a short while, the flight attendant appeared, squatted beside her, and said softly, “Hello, ma’am. Is there anything I can assist you with?”
Hannah was still a bit disoriented. “I’m sorry, but I’m quite thirsty. Would you mind getting me some water? Thanks.”
“Sure thing, ma’am. Just a second.”
Once the flight attendant had gone, Hannah glanced at her phone’s clock in the dimly lit cabin.
She still had about five hours before reaching Lightby, even though she’d already napped for eight hours.
Rubbing her sore forehead, Hannah saw the flight attendant return quickly with a glass of water.

ugh our fighting abilities.”
Dotson chimed in, a note of concern in his voice, “Ever since you left Hannah, making a living got tougher. Now that you’re back, are you gonna help us get our Dark Web operations up and running again?”
“We’ll talk about the Dark Web some other time. I’m here on important business.”
“Hannah!”
Suddenly, they were interrupted by Jalen, who approached them rapidly, clad in a gray suit.
He positioned himself protectively in front of Hannah, eyeing the two men with caution. “Hold on, what’s happening here? Let’s not make any rash moves!”
Dilan and Dotson looked at each other, confused. “Boss, who’s this guy?”
