CHAPTER FOURTEEN

In a lavishly appointed office suite, Maria sat behind a sleek ebony desk, framed by floor-to-ceiling windows that overlooked the sprawling cityscape. The room exuded an air of opulence, adorned with intricate art pieces and plush furnishings that spoke of affluence and power.

Maria, dressed in an exquisite tailored pantsuit of deep burgundy, exuded sophistication. Her ensemble, from a renowned designer, accentuated her statuesque frame with impeccable precision. The fabric's luxurious texture shimmered under the ambient lighting, matching the gleam in her intense hazel eyes.

The two employees, clad in formal business attire, stood uneasily before her, their suits not quite as refined as Maria's. They shifted uncomfortably under her penetrating gaze, their nervousness palpable in the air. The room, typically a symbol of Maria's authority and control, now crackled with an undeniable tension as they relayed the unfortunate news.

Maria's gaze was cold as she scrutinized the two men in front of her. "What do you mean he got away?" she demanded, her voice taut with frustration.

The first employee, nervously shuffling his feet, replied, "Ma'am, it was unexpected. He seemed to have anticipated our moves. The place was empty when we arrived."

"He's craftier than we thought," added the other, his tone apologetic. "He managed to slip through our grasp. We're doing our best to track him down."

Maria clenched her jaw, trying to contain her rising anger. "You two understand the consequences if he's not found soon. Double your efforts. He can't have gone far."

The employees nodded in acknowledgment, quickly exiting the room, leaving Maria alone with her simmering frustration.

As Maria sat in her opulent office, she meticulously combed through the classified information she had received from a spy nestled deep within the Dero headquarters. Her eyes scanned each document, her mind working fervently to connect the dots hidden within the encrypted files.

The documents hinted at a mysterious and elusive project: the Dero project. Whispers of an ancient prophecy involving a chosen one surfaced within the reports. Maria's curiosity piqued as she delved deeper into the intricate details.

"Ray," she murmured to herself, the name echoing in her mind. The reports suggested that the project held an unprecedented significance for this man. The writings spoke of a chosen individual, someone believed to possess unique abilities that might alter the fabric of the universe itself.

Her sharp intellect began to piece together the cryptic data. There were references to another species, a force orchestrating events behind the scenes—a faction she had never encountered. They seemed to consider Ray as pivotal, referring to him as the key to unlocking a mysterious power.

Maria's brows furrowed as she stumbled upon information about an enigmatic entity—a spaceship known as the Dero ship. Details were scant, shrouded in secrecy and myth, yet it was depicted as a vessel of unparalleled capabilities, something beyond comprehension. The files hinted at its potential to alter destinies and its link to Ray.

Her mind raced, assimilating every shred of information, forming a mosaic of intrigue and uncertainty. The mystery of the Dero project, the cryptic connections to Ray, and the enigmatic spaceship left her both fascinated and cautious.
