Layla and Lacey searched Damien’s office upstairs while Keisha was playing in her room. Layla found the mysterious keys in second drawer of his desk.
They decided to go to the storage facility Monday morning, after their husbands had gone to work. Layla called Izabella at home and asked if she could come to work at eight instead of nine. She was happy to come in an hour early.
They were at Tampa Bay Storage’s office. They patiently waited for the first customer to finish his business. He paid his fee and got out of line.
“Hi, I’m here to pay the overdue balance on unit one-two-four. Damien Miles,” Layla told the clerk.

I still can’t believe Memrose is so strong that it wiped out her entire memory. If I had started human trials and this was the result, I would have been ruined. Now that I know, I can make the necessary adjustments, and I’ll also have a report to hand to the association for funding to start human trials and extended research as needed. As for patient zero, her physical injuries are no more, and the pregnancy seems to be going well. I had told myself that I married her to keep an eye on her medically for research purposes, but it’s a lie. I don’t think I have been with a woman so beautiful and sweet. The truth is, the life of a doctor can be very lonely, and I’ve grown quite fond of her. So, it looks like I’m not doomed to spend the rest of my days alone with the darkness of Roseanne Quinn’s

Flashes of light and images invaded her brain as every nerve in her body stung; growing up in DC, visiting her extended family in Hampton, Virginia, the boy she dated during her junior year in high school, meeting and falling in love with Alec, and meeting Carter in DC at a fancy restaurant that her aunt and uncle had taken her to for making the dean’s list that semester. Carter had pursued her relentlessly with his dynamic personality and expensive little gifts, turning her on and then making her fall for him. She had left for New York to move into Carter’s penthouse. Carter had taught her how to shoot a gun, and she became a natural at it. During the years they were apart, Lana still thought of Alec. She had wondered if he found someone else to love and forgot about her. Did he have kids, how were his parents, and were he and Bruce still friends? But most important of all, she remembered wha

When Lana got back to the house, she asked Izabella to pack Keisha’s things while she packed up her own clothes in the empty suitcase and the carry-on she had brought back. She pulled out a hundred-dollars cash from her vanity drawer. She kept a little cash in the house in case of emergencies. Izabella walked into the bedroom. “Señora?” “Are Keisha’s clothes packed?” Lana asked without turning around. “Si. Along with a few of her favorite dolls.” “Good.” “

Damien had been able to come home for a quick bite to eat with his family before going to the hospital for a few hours. When he had walked through the door and saw the word Memrose spray painted on the living room wall, he had never been so shocked in his life.Somehow, someway, Layla had gotten her memory back. If that wasn’t bad enough, she knew that he had used Memrose on her. He had groaned with agony when he discovered half of Keisha and Layla’s clothes were gone. “Damn it!” Damien roared with anger and frustration. He didn’t know whether to pack his own bags and head for the airport or try to find them. He knew what he did was illegal, and his medical licenses would definitely be revoked. However, he loved his family, and he wanted them back.

Lana had decided to stop by Tampa Guns and Range before picking up Izabella. She had gone to the locker rooms to get her gun and the extra magazines she had for it. She had her two revolvers in the car, but considering her situation, she didn’t think she could have too much firepower. Besides, the only agents she was willing to trust with hers and Keisha’s safety were Alec and Bruce because of what happened last time. Once she had alerted the FBI that she had total recall, they would reopen the case against Carter and his goons.Keisha had just quietly watched her put the gun and bullets in her bag. Then they had gone back upstairs to leave, but Lana was distracted by the bulletproof vests.She asked Lou if he had vests small enough for children. He did and grabbed the smallest one he had for Keisha to try on. It was a little big for her, but she seemed comfortable in it, and it would do the

It had been a little over an hour since Lana had texted him. When Alec’s doorbell rang thirty minutes earlier, he had thought it was her, but it turned out to be Bruce. Alec had told his buddy that he was expecting Lana. Instead of Bruce leaving, he had pushed past Alec and said he would go when she showed up. Alec was drinking rum and Coke while Bruce sipped on a beer. “It looks like she stood you up. Good thing I came by. You’d have been yanking your dry crank with Lucky watching you like you had lost your mind if I hadn’t,” Bruce goaded with a smirk. “You are the constant comedian,” he said sarcastically. “She probably got stuck in traffic, or maybe

Lana had gone to the hospital. She had Damien paged twice to the front desk. He never showed up. She had gone to the OR and said she was his wife and asked if he was in surgery. They told her that he had never shown up for his shift, and they had to call in another doctor for an emergency spinal cord surgery. That was what made her think something was wrong. It wasn’t like Damien to shun his responsibilities at the hospital. Thinking that he could have been in an accident or had some sort of health emergency, Lana called the main phone number of the hospital and asked if Damien had been admitted as a patient. No one was listed under that name. She had walked the halls asking nurses if they had seen him. They hadn’t. “Where the hell is he?” she mumbled as the elevator descended down to the ER lobby. She had parked in the

Alec and Bruce were sitting in the van with Earl and two other guys. Most of the agents that were there were part of their division. Bruce had whispered to a few of the guys that Keisha was his daughter. They were surprised, but they were discrete. The last thing any of them wanted was Blanchette getting wind of it. He would bench Alec in a heartbeat. “This is agent Roch. I lost sight of Lana Murphy,” the radio in the van sounded. “Shit,” Alec sneered. “How the fuck did that happen?” Blanchette said over the airwaves. “She went to the bathroom. I was watching the door when Ms. Smith st
