As Emira walked out of the airport, she took in a deep breath and then immediately frowned.
Her senses sharpened all at once, as if someone had flipped a switch inside her. The air felt heavier. Wrong. A faint tension settled over her skin, making her slow instinctively. It felt as though she had stepped into danger without seeing it.
She stopped and looked around carefully.
People moved past her without a second glance. Nothing seemed out of place. No hostile presence. No obvious threat. And yet, the feeling refused to leave. Her frown deepened.
This made no sense. She shook her head lightly, telling herself not to overthink it. Her instincts were now on edge so suddenly because of the threat that she knew would soon be upon them. Shiqi. Since she had no idea how Shiqi would approach her, she was probably feeling unsettled.
Still, the unease lingered.
