“DAMIEN!” Isabella's shriek jolted me back to reality.

“What! Isabella! Why are you shouting my name!” I yelled back. Why was she calling me when she was at the very tip of my doom?

I was still solving the case with Deluca and he popped up. Through her.

Wait.

Was he the one who slashed my car's tyre?

Oh God.

That can only be him. I can't deny the fact that he is the only man I'm scared of in the whole of Miami. He is literally a walking dead man. What can I do at this point? Who am I to deal wi

My eyes are fixed on the door.I've been staring at it for hours, waiting and hoping for something to happen. The minutes crawl by. The silence is heavy. I don't know how much longer I can do this.The phone is still hidden in my waistband.. I don't know if Emily got my call. I don't know if anyone is coming. I don't know anything anymore.Sophie is asleep on the mattress with her head on Mom's lap. Mom hasn't moved in hours.

    VICTOR'S POV The hallway is cold and damp. I lean against the wall and stare at the closed door in front of me. How did I let it get this far? How could I do this to them? When did I become this person to them? Leah would never forgive me and now Sophie is scared of me. Nothing I ever do would bring them back to me. My hands are shaking so I shove them in my pockets and try to breathe. The air feels heavy. I hear footsteps behind me and I know who it is before I turn around. "Victor." He calls out. Elric's voice is cold. I turn to face him. "What do you want?" "Why are you sneaking food to them?" Elric steps closer. "They need to stay alive. That's all. Nothing more." Knowing him he's lying. "They're people, Elric. They're not just leverage." He lets out a cold laugh "They're exactly what they need to be. Leverage. The sooner you accept that, the easier this will be." I shake my head. "You don't believe that." I take a step toward him, closing the distance between us.

    DAMIEN'S POV The car slows as we approach the industrial district. The buildings are dark and broken, old warehouses with shattered windows and rusted metal doors. The street is empty except for one car parked near the entrance. I recognize it—Jeremy's car. Stefano kills the engine and I'm out before the car fully stops. Emily is standing near the hood of Jeremy's car with her arms wrapped around herself. Ethan is beside her. Jeremy is a few feet away, his hands in his pockets. She looks up when she hears my footsteps. Her face is pale and her eyes are red. She's been crying. "Dad." Her voice is small and my heart aches. "Emily." I walk toward her. "I came as fast as I could." She doesn't move. She stares at me. "Why are you here?" "Because you're here. Because Leah is here. Because I'm not going to let either of you face this alone." She shakes her head. "You don't get to do this. You don't get to show up and pretend you care." "I do care." "Then where were you?" Her voice

    EMILY'S POVI sit in the back seat of Jeremy's car and stare at the dark warehouses stretching out in front of us. The industrial district is silent and empty. The only light comes from the moon and the distant glow of the city."We were so close" I whisper. "We were so close. We were just quick enough"Jeremy turns around in the driver's seat and looks at me. "Come on, don't beat yourself up we'll find her okay ."I shake my head. "But we don't know where she is. We don't know if she's still""She'll be fine if? And as long as she keeps fighting and tries to reach out to us" he says. " We'll find her."I look at the dark street ahead. The warehouse district stretches out in front of us, dark and silent and empty. Somewhere in there, Leah is waiting and hoping someone will come.I can't sit here anymore.I open the door and step out into the cold night air. The wind hits my face and I wrap my arms around myself."Emily" Jeremy calls. "What are you doing?""I'm going to find her" I s

    EMILY'S POV Jeremy's apartment is small and cold and I hate that I'm here. Jeremy sets up an inflatable bed in the corner of the living room while I stand there watching. He moves quickly, efficiently. The mattress hisses as it fills with air, and the sound is loud in the quiet apartment. "Here" he says, patting the mattress. "It's not much but it's better than the couch." I don't say anything. I just sit down on the edge of it. The plastic crinkles under my weight and I can feel the cold floor seeping through the thin material. Ethan is already on the couch, staring at his phone. The tracking app is still open and he hasn't looked away from it since we got here. I lie down and stare at the ceiling. The lights are off, and the only glow comes from Ethan's phone screen. Shadows stretch across the walls and the silence is heavy and suffocating. I don't sleep. I can't. Every time I close my eyes I see Leah's face.. I shiver and wrap my arms around myself. The cold seeps through

    Hey,” I smiled politely, trying to avoid the awkward gaze by searching for a drink. I kept my eyes anywhere but him, because of two things, I don't want to have this conversation sober, and I am still looking for a waiter.He noticed my restlessness and offered, “Can I get you a drink?” He said pol
