Sunny sat quietly on K’s bed, the squeaky sound it made lost to his ears as he was deep in thought. Four days, give or take, had passed since he’d taken pictures of the suspicious man who had walked into Club Spiral and sent the pictures to Merlin. K had done a reverse search on the internet, and with her skills it had taken her only a second to confirm that the man really was a professor at Prestige Academy. Sure, there were many reasons for anyone to visit a club in broad daylight. Who was he to judge? The problem came from the fact that K’s search had also given Sunny the man’s name. He went by Dmitri Volkov. Sunny had heard that last name from somewhere else before. And it was from the mouth of Merlin when he was speaking about his friend who had fallen into a coma after running riot in the academy. Nikolai Volkov. Sunny’s stomach churned at the thought, and he leaned forward placing his forehead on his knuckles. If the professor was truly the relative of the boy, and was involved with the villains who had stuffed that boy full of drugs, then he was a sick man. How could anyone do that to their own family? A crunch sound broke Sunny out of his reverie, and he looked up to see K with her hair packed into a messy bun swiveling on her gaming chair, her legs tucked into each other and dressed in nothing but a black tank top and joggers. She pulled out the stick of the sweet she had crushed with her teeth and tossed it to the ground. Then she heaved out a sigh. “This is boring,” she mumbled. “Don’t ya have anything for me to do, Sunny?” Sunny narrowed his eyes on her. “Really?” She inclined her head. “Oh, give it a rest, will ya? It’s been bloody four days already.” “That doesn’t make it any less disgusting.” “The kid’s alive.” She tutted. “Not like he’s dead. And what’re ya gonna do about it anyway? Huh?” Sunny stared at K for a second. She shrugged, and he realized that he had made a mistake lounging at her place. What was he even thinking? He had avoided her for years, and now he was suddenly using her dumpsite of a place as his second home. He had to snap out of it. He had figured out who the traitor was and had sent his pictures to Merlin. Hopefully with that, the boy would finally be able to give the whole revenge thing a rest. Whatever the case was, his work here was done. Sunny stood up. “What?” K asked, her eyes following Sunny as he walked to the door. He glanced at her. “What do you mean ‘what’? I’m leaving.” She frowned. “Why?” Sunny blinked. “Because I have no reason to stay here any longer?” “Fucking brat,” she spat. “Yer so fucking ungrateful, d’ya know that?” Sunny pursed his lips. “I guess.” She gave him the middle finger. He sighed and turned the door handle, but then she added, “We’re not done, by the way.” Sunny turned to her. “How come?” “Well, there’s no evidence that D’s the spy, ya know? He could’ve been at the club for anything.” Sunny turned around and folded his arms. “Anything like what?” “For one, he could’ve been there to do the same thing that kid of yours is doing.” “Have revenge for his brother?” Sunny implied. K snapped her fingers. “Exactly.” “You’re insane.” “What?!” “That’s a very stupid conspiracy theory.” Sunny shook his head. “I just told you about what happened with his own relative.” “But do ya have any evidence he was the one who led his brother to the club?” Sunny paused. “See. I’m not saying it couldn’t have been him, but there’s also the possibility that it wasn’t. And besides, one more thing, even if he was involved in what happened with his brother, I doubt he was the spy.” Sunny’s brows pulled in. He shifted back into the room. “Under what grounds?” “Think about this, he’s a professor, right?” “Right.” “Well, how would he have gotten classified information that the Consortium Guild was going to be infiltrating the club, and what time and day that would happen,” said K. “Doesn’t make any sense, does it, Sunny-boy?” “Don’t call me that.” Sunny retreated into his thoughts. He hated
