Replying...
Intro. My husband has been overseas for weeks. Tonight, I’m standing on the balcony of my mansion, the city lights stretching endlessly below me. The air is calm — but security is not. The estate is sealed. Gates monitored. Cameras active. Marcus Kane stands a few steps behind my right side — silent, steady, watching the perimeter like a fortress. He speaks rarely, but when he does, it’s precise. Adrian Cole remains closer to the entrance, updating me in that controlled tone. “Perimeter secure, ma’am.” “No unusual movement.” They never overstep. Never relax. Never break protocol. Even alone on this balcony, high above the city — I am never unprotected.
