登入Zachary's POVI felt a searing pain in my stomach as the bullet ripped through my flesh. I gritted my teeth, determined not to show any weakness in front of Kimberly.As my team rushed to my side, I knew I had to stay conscious. I couldn't let Christian win, not now that I'd finally gotten Kimberly back."Kimberly... hold me please," I whispered, my voice weak.Kimberly's hands wrapped around mine, holding me tightly. I felt a surge of love and gratitude towards her.KIMBERLY'S POVI held Zachary's hand, tears streaming down my face. I'd just gotten him back, and now he was hurt because of me.The van sped towards the hospital, and I prayed that we'd make it in time. I couldn't lose Zachary, not now that we'd finally found each other.As we arrived at the hospital, the doctors rushed to attend to Zachary. I waited anxiously, my heart racing with fear.ZACHARY'S POVThe doctors worked tirelessly to stabilize me. I knew I'd lost a lot of blood, but I was determined to pull through.Kimb
~ZACHARY'S POV ~My team worked tirelessly, tracking down Ashley's location. She was moving around a lot, as if trying to evade someone. Me.I knew she was leaving something out, and she wasn't being completely honest and of course I couldn't just let her live like that just by having her words for it. I've learnt my lesson. Trusting Christian just because he said to trust him was the biggest mistake I made.The coffee Ashley drank had something in it. Something to help her sleep as we inserted the tracking device around her necklace without her knowing.I intend to find out everything she knows and know everywhere she goes until Kimberly is found. Finally, after hours of searching, my men pinpointed Ashley's final location.We moved out just as quickly. As we approached the location, we found out it was a secluded area with zero other houses on sight. My heart pounded with anticipation. I knew Kimberly was close, I could feel it in my bones, and I was determined to rescue her.We
ZACHARY'S POVMy eyes bore into Ashley's as i leaned in, my voice firm but controlled. "Ashley, we know you're involved in Kimberly's disappearance. It's time to tell the truth."Ashley shifted uncomfortably, her eyes darting around the room. "I don't know what you're talking about," she stammered.My expression remained calm, but my eyes flashed with determination. "Don't play dumb, Ashley. We have evidence. Tell us where Kimberly is now while I'm still being nice."Ashley's resolve began to crumble under my intense gaze. She glanced around the room, searching for an escape, but found none. "Okay, fine," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "I'll tell you what I know. But you have to promise to protect me."My expression softened slightly. "We'll do what we can. Now, tell us."Ashley took a deep breath. "Christian Norman is behind Kimberly's disappearance. He's been planning this for months. And...and....... and I helped him."My eyes widened. "Tell me, Where is Kimberly?"Dam
KIMBERLY'S POVOnce my blindfold was removed, I saw that I was being kept in a completely different place from before.The man untying my binds started touching me inappropriately and that's when I couldn't take it anymore.I listened to my intrusive thoughts and bit the man's hands.Once I was free of him, I made a run for it.I ran out of the room, not knowing where I was going but as long as I was moving I'd find my way out.And that's when I bumped into someone, he was so solid that I stumbled backwards.Oh my God. A familiar face.Christian."Christian? What are you doing here? Did you guys find me? Is Zachary here with you?" I asked feeling a bit relieved to see him.Perhaps I was finally saved."Not exactly," He said looking a tad bit confused."Well, did you find me on your own? We need to leave this place before they find us," I said dragging his hand with me."Yeah. We're not going anywhere sweetheart." He said with a firm voice.I quickly let go of his hand while I studied
CHRISTIAN'S POV~As I pondered on the mysterious message, my mind racing with possibilities, I decided I must find out who this person is soon before I get in trouble. I didn't want to alert much people, I didn't want everyone to know that someone might be onto me.I turned to Ashley, who was watching me with an unreadable expression. "Let's get moving," I said, my voice firm. "We have a lot to do before tonight."Ashley nodded, and we set to work, preparing for the next phase of our plan. But I couldn't shake off the feeling that I was being watched, that someone was waiting for me to make a mistake.As the hours ticked by, I grew more and more anxious. The message had unsettled me, and I couldn't focus on the task at hand. I kept glancing over my shoulder, expecting to see Zachary or someone else lurking in the shadows.But there was no one.I pushed on, determined to see my plan through to the end. I would get away with this, no matter what.As night began to fall, we made our mov
ZACHARY'S POV ~"Don't lie to me, Christian. I've seen the way you've been lurking around Kimberly before. You're involved somehow. Tell me what you know," I pressed, my voice rising.Christian raised his hands in a calming gesture. "Zachary, listen to me. I'm telling you the truth. I don't know anything about Kimberly's disappearance. But I'm willing to help you find her. If you want us to work together."I hesitated, weighing my options. I didn't trust Christian, "No. Thank you. I'm working fine on my own.""Come on Man, I know we're not exactly in good terms like we used to be, but I also care about Kimberly so please let me help find her. Atleast for my own conscience," He insisted. "Fine. Let's work together. But if I find out you're playing me, or you're not being completely honest with me, there WILL be gravy consequences," I said to him.Christian nodded resolutely. "I understand. You don't need to threaten me. Let's find Kimberly."With Christian's assistance, My investigati
KIMBERLY'S POV I woke up to the sound of birds chirping outside my window. I stretched and yawned, feeling refreshed after a good night's sleep. I checked around the big room and couldn't find Aunt Judy. Where could she have gone too? I decided to check the living room. "Good morning, Miss Kimb
