Caitlin's expression was heavy as she stepped inside the room. “Zeke, there’s something we’ve kept from you… but it’s time you knew.”

“What is it? Just tell me.”

Zeke could already tell by her face—it wasn’t going to be good news.

“Alicia… something happened to her.”

“I know,” Zeke replied grimly. “She rescued me and ended up falling into Zorro’s hands. He’s trying to use her as leverage, wants to trade her for Samir.”

He shared the information he had. But Caitlin shook her head.

“No. You’ve been deceived. Alicia isn’t in Zorro’s custody.”

    “Who’s there?”James hadn’t even had the chance to signal Tyler before a guard spotted him. A sharp shout rang out, and James bolted.Bang!A gunshot cracked behind him. With no way back the way he came, James ducked into cover, weapon raised, ready to return fire.Outside, Tyler was still stalling the gatekeeper when the muffled shot echoed from within the estate.

    Before Caitlin and the others could even set out, Zeke arrived in a rush with his men to meet them.“Caitlin!”“Zeke.”When Caitlin saw him, his eyes were bloodshot—he clearly hadn’t slept all night. But his spirit seemed anything but weary.“Sorry to show up like this and complicate your plans,” he said. “Can you tell me everything?”“Of course.”They sat down together, and Caitlin explained what had happened the night before, how she had seen a dancer who looked strikingly like Alicia. She even sent Zeke the short video clip she had recorded.“The footage is too dark. I can’t tell,” Zeke admitted.“If you’d been there in person, you’d understand why I think it’s her,” Caitlin said firmly.Zeke’s pulse thundered in his chest.

    Up ahead was a large bar, its open doors revealing flashing lights and crowded tables. Tourists of all kinds gathered at the entrance, while inside people laughed and drank, men and women clustered together. On stage, beneath spinning beams of light, a sultry woman swayed to the music, her movements bold and provocative.As they passed, Caitlin suddenly stopped in her tracks. Sebastian, seeing her pause to look toward the bar, assumed she wanted to go inside for a drink.“Want to go in?” he asked.Instead, Caitlin tilted her head toward the stage. “Look at that dancer.”“Nothing worth looking at. She’s not half as pretty as you.”Sebastian’s survival instincts were sharp—he knew exactly what a good husband should say.“No, I mean…” Caitlin trailed off, then tugged at his arm. “Let’s go in for a bit.”Hand in hand, they stepped inside.

Caitlin caught her gently and smiled.“Ida, remember last time I promised to make your wish come true? I found your brother.”“Really?” Ida’s eyes widened, full of hope.“Yes. He’s working out of town right now, so he can’t come see you in person. But he asked me to bring you something.”Caitlin pulled out a tablet and played the video Black Hawk had recorded. The moment Ida saw his face, her eyes flooded with tears.“It’s him… It’s really my brother…” Her voice trembled as she touched the screen, listening to his wor

    “She wants to break up with me. What am I supposed to do?”Benjamin dragged a hand down his face, the picture of frustration.“Break up?” Caitlin studied him. “Did she give you a reason?”“She said being with me is too much pressure. She can’t eat, can’t sleep, feels like she’s going to collapse.” Benjamin’s voice was heavy, defeated. “Come on, help me think of something. I don’t want to lose her.”“I understand. Don’t panic.
