ANYA’S POV

The taxi driver glanced at me in his mirror for the third time. “Are you sure you want to go all the way out there, miss?”

“Yes,” I said, although my hands were shaking inside my coat pockets. “Please keep driving.”

I left the hotel a little after two in the morning. Tara and Adam were asleep, and I had walked out through the side entrance before I could lose my nerve. A lot had happened over the past few days. My father had collapsed, Liam had sent another threat, and I had learned

  • His To Own   CHAPTER 86: Behind The Wall

    ANYA’S POV“Nobody goes near that door,” Kane said.I stepped back, my eyes fixed on the open side entrance. Cassie stood beside the kitchen counter, looking just as unsettled as I felt. Tara had gone quiet, while Ella remained on the sofa, her hands clasped tightly in her lap.“Did you see anyone come in?” Kane asked Cassie.“No. I locked it before bed. I'm certain of that.”Kane took out his phone and called Daniel. “The side door at Anya’s house is open. Send someone over to secure the property and check the grounds. We may have had an intruder.”“What about Paige?” I asked when he ended the call.“The search is still ongoing.”I nodded, although his answer did little to settle my nerves. Paige was still missing, and now someone might have found a way into my home.My attent

  • His To Own   CHAPTER 87: Cold Efficiency

    KANE’S POV“Tell Anya to come alone if she wants Paige and Adam back.”The message remained on the hotel receptionist's screen. I read it again, then looked at Anya.“Come alone where?” she asked. “There's no address, no instructions. How are they expecting me to find them?”Tara stood beside her, her face pale. She kept trying Adam's number, but every call went straight to voicemail.“Ask the supervisor whether there was anything else,” I said. “Any call, message or instruction from whoever left that phone.”Anya repeated the question. The receptionist returned a moment later with the same answer:no further contact. They had found the room empty, and Adam's phone was still on the bed.“Make sure nobody enters that room until the police have finished examining it,” I told her. “They'll need ev

  • His To Own   CHAPTER 85: A New Discovery

    ANYA’S POVAt eight the next morning, I was getting ready for the office when my phone rang. Kane's name appeared on the screen, and I answered before the second ring.“Have they found Paige?”“Not yet. Daniel is still working with the police.” He paused. “Ella is with him. She wants to speak to you.”I looked at the blouse laid out on my bed. After everything that had happened, the last person I wanted to see was Ella.“Why?”“She says there's something else you need to know. It's a long story, and I think you'll want to hear it from her yourself.”I considered refusing, but the mention of something else made me hesitate. We had already spent too much time finding out important things after the damage had been done.“All right. Bring her over.”“We'll be there shortly.”

  • His To Own   CHAPTER 84: The Traitor In The Room

    KANE’S POVBy the time we left the garage, the police had Paige’s flash drive, footage of the van taking her, and Voss’s name. It was more than we had when we arrived, but it still wasn't enough to find her.Daniel stood beside my car, speaking to one of the officers. When he ended the call, Anya approached him.“Have they found her?”“Not yet. They're following up on the freight company and checking the addresses connected to the van. The police are treating it as an abduction.”“Then what are we supposed to do while they search?”“Give them room to work,” Daniel replied. “I'll stay here and coordinate with them. You should both get somewhere safe.”Anya turned to me. “I want to go home.”“I'll drive you.”She hesitated before nodding. We barely spoke during the journey. I wanted to reassure her that Paige would be foun

  • His To Own   CHAPTER 83: Copies

    KANE’S POVThe interview room door opened nearly four hours after Anya had gone inside. I stood as soon as her lawyer stepped into the corridor.“She’s free to leave,” he said. “The detective wants the original authorisation examined, along with the bank’s verification and submission records. We’ll follow up through the proper channels.”Anya appeared behind him. She looked exhausted, but she managed to meet my eyes.“Kane, take me home.”I reached for her bag. She held on to it, so I let my hand fall.We drove in silence until she asked me to stop outside her house. Cassie opened the front door before we reached it and pulled Anya into her arms.“Are you all right?”“I'm tired,” Anya admitted. “And hungry. Is there anything to eat?”“There's soup. I'll heat i

  • His To Own   CHAPTER 82: The Beneficiary

    ANYA’S POV“Both, Mrs Ross. Your name is now part of the investigation.”I looked at Kane. He stood beside the kitchen counter, giving me room to answer for myself.“When would you like me to come in?”“This afternoon, if you're available.”“I can come at two. I'll bring a lawyer with me.”“That would be sensible. I'll have someone at the front desk expecting you.”“Will you explain what new information you've uncovered when I arrive?”“We'll explain what we can. Some of the material is still being reviewed.”“All right. I'll see you at two.”I ended the call and stared at my cold tea.Kane glanced at the clock. “It's nearly two in the morning. You should get some sleep.”Going back to my house wasn't an option, not after Liam's threat. I couldn't bear the thought of wondering whether someone had been inside again.“Can I stay here tonight?”“Of course. You can use the guest room.”“Thank you.”“I know a lawyer who handles financial investigations. I can give you her number, and you c
