Felix jogged into the villa, and instinctively, I peeked out of my door to see that he had headed upstairs. He looked surprised to see me but quickly regained his composure. He gave me a nod before rushing up to the third floor.

The lock beeped, indicating a facial recognition failure. I jumped, quickly stepping away to avoid triggering it again.
