Thomas’s POV

The name Steward carried weight in every courtroom, every boardroom, and every Silent corner of society. I knew that much. But weight could be shifted if you knew where to push. And I, Thomas White, had built my empire on knowing exactly where to press.

Amanda had come to me with eyes that tried to hide desperation but couldn’t. I admired her for that, the way she carried her pain like armor, pretending she wasn’t breaking, even when the world wanted her on her knees.

The Stewards thought they were untouchable. Veronica, Selene, even Ryan. They believed influence was inherited like a birthright, But influence, I’d learned, was currency. And currency? I had more of it than the Stewards could ever dream of.

That morning, I sat in my office, high above the city skyline, making the first of many calls. Judges who owed me favors, politicians who needed White Group endorsements, media outlets that thrived on my advertising contracts. One by one, I reminded

    Ryan's POV "Levi was never taken." I almost didn't realize it was Ryan's voice, he must have been trying to hold the words in for the longest time. My ears rang, the words not settling, it hung in the air between us like smoke. I turned to him slowly, my heart already racing, already preparing for pain. "What?" Ryan doesn’t look at Thomas when he speaks again, he looks at me. Straight at me. Like he needs me to hear this properly. "He was never touched." He said "He’s safe. With people I trust. This was bait." For a second, the world tilted. My knees weaken, not from fear this time, but from the rush of it. Relief crashes into me so hard it almost knocks the breath from my lungs. Levi. Safe. Alive. Untouched. I press my hand to my chest as if I can physically hold onto that truth before it slips away. Then I hear Thomas laugh, it was a sharp and bitter laugh, like he had lost something in his head. "Of course." he said "Of course you’d do something like that." I looked at

    Amanda's POV I didn’t plan to speak, not at first. I stood there while the tension stretched, while Ryan and Thomas faced each other like two storms about to collide. I listened to the sound of my own breathing and realized something strange, I wasn’t shaking anymore. Fear had ruled me for so long that I had forgotten what it felt like when it finally loosened its grip. Thomas was unraveling. I could see it now. The way his eyes darted, the way his voice rose and fell too quickly, the way his hand kept moving like he needed something to hold onto. Control had always been his weapon and right now, he was losing it. He knew all his tactics wouldn't work this time, the money and power couldn't save him, even if he tried. Ryan stood there, solid, watching him, watching me. He didn’t rush. He didn’t interrupt. He trusted me to find my footing. That was when I knew. This wasn’t his fight anymore. It was mine. "Thomas." My voice cut through the air between us, clear and steady.

    Amanda's POV The car slows down long before it stops, I know it before Thomas even turns off the engine, everything was wrong about the place.The was far from the road, hidden behind broken fences and weeds that have grown wild. The house looked dead like it had never had occupants in centuries, there was no lights, no movements, just the concrete, smell of rust and a heavy silence.My heart starts beating harder, slow at first, then faster."This is it." Thomas says calmly, like he’s announcing we’ve arrived at a hospital or a police station. "They said he’s inside."I look around again.There’s no sound of a child, no crying, no footsteps. No sign that anyone has been here recently at all.I swallowed."Where’s Levi?" I ask softly, keeping my voice steady. "I thought… I thought he’d be waiting."Thomas doesn’t look at me, he’s already stepping out of the car."He’s safe." he said quickly. "Let’s just go inside first."I followed him because I had to, because if Levi is anywhere ne

    Amanda’s POVThe sound of the door locking echoed through the room, loud enough to make my chest tighten. For a second, I don’t move.I stay where I am, my back to the door, my hand hovering near the handle as if I might try it again. I don’t. I already know it won’t open. I don’t need to prove it to myself.I turn slowly.Thomas is standing a few steps away after trying to open the door, his shoulders tense, his jaw tight. The calm he wore earlier, the steady voice, the reassuring smile he kept giving me earlier had disappeared, it felt like he had finally taken the mask off his face.The air feels heavy, thick enough to press against my skin, my heart beat faster, but I force my breathing to stay slow.This is not the moment to panic.Thomas exhales sharply and drags a hand through his hair. He starts walking, back and forth, his footsteps scraping against the concrete floor. The sound repeats again and again, making me clutch the helm of my dress for support."You don’t trust me."

    Amanda’s POVI let my hands shake on purpose, not too much but just enough for Thomas to notice.The car moved through the city, streetlights flashing past the window, but I kept my eyes low, fixed on my lap like I was afraid to look at anything too long. My heart was beating fast, but not because I was confused. Because I was alert, awake in a way I hadn’t been in weeks.Thomas glanced at me for the third time in less than a minute."You’re quiet." he said gently, the way someone speaks to a child who might cry. "Are you feeling okay?"I swallowed and nodded, then I shook my head, I made it messy, unsure."I… I don’t know." I said softly. "My head feels… full."That pleased him, I saw it in the way his shoulders eased, the way his grip on the steering wheel relaxed."It’s normal." he said. "After everything you’ve been through. You don’t have to think. That’s why I’m here."I turned my face toward him, letting my eyes look lost. "You promise Levi is okay?"His jaw tightened for half
