Contract Marriage With Alpha Snow

***************

Chapter 263

~Xavier/Golden God’s POV~

When Snow had called me back then concerning his wife’s kidnapping, I wasn’t thrilled about leaving the house. But after the rescue mission, I stayed back to investigate to see if any clue was left behind.

I knew they were after Zara and Snow but I wanted to know more. Where was their lair? Knowing Snow, he’d never let a threat like Melvin go scot-free. But lucky me. I found a drive.

The drive was small, nondescript, just another piece of innocuous tech that could hold something world-shattering. I slid it into the port on my custom-built computer system, the soft whir of the machine syncing perfectly with the hum of the multiple screens in front of me.

With a flick of my wrist, I waved through the floating display, opening a new workspace to analyze the drive’s contents.

A message blinked onto the screen. "Encrypted. Access Denied."

I let out a sharp breath, muttering, "Fucking bastards."

The encryption was advanced—no surprise there. But they hadn’t met me. I cracked my knuckles and leaned forward, fingers dancing over the holographic keyboard.

Algorithms scrolled across the screens, one by one breaking down the layers of encryption. Each failure pushed a growl from my throat, but giving up wasn’t in my vocabulary.
