RIVEN'S POV

The food stall was just three blocks from the building and the woman running it worked fast, which I appreciated. There was no unnecessary conversation. She took the order, made the food and handed it over. That was a clean transaction. I liked people who understood that an exchange didn't require embellishment.

My phone rang while she was bagging it and I glanced at the caller. It was Caius. I picked up on the second ring.

"What?"

"Where are you?"

"Went for a run. I w

    DORIAN'S POVCaelan's face on the screen had that specific quality it got when assembling a complete picture from incomplete information and was waiting for someone to fill in the rest.He looked at each of us in turn. The silence lasted exactly long enough to be deliberate. "Explain." He ordered finally, looking at me.I kept my posture straight and my voice level. "We found Ezra in an apartment after being missing for some days. Riven was the one keeping him. He found him before we did and didn't tell us. By the time we tracked the location and got there, Riven had gone into a dark episode. We got to him in time but Ezra has been unconscious for two days since we brought him home."Caelen was quiet. His gaze moved slowly across the room. It landed on Lucian's face. He was wearing a bandage across his nose. The bruise underneath his eyes had gone deep purple overnight. "And you. Did you also plan this with Riven? Cause I don't understand why you're in the same state as him.

    CAIUS'S POV "This is it." I said, pointing at a four floored building. It looked so old modern, almost like it was designed to be forgotten. I looked at my phone, at the tracker sitting steady and unmoving on the screen and then back at the building. "You are certain, right?" Dorian asked me and I nodded. "The signal hasn't moved for a while." I put my phone in my pocket. "This is where he's been." "Yeah, he is right. That's Riven's car." We all looked towards the angle. It was parked two spaces down and I sighed. This was about to get bloody if it turned out to be true. ▪︎▪︎▪︎ABOUT TWO DAYS AGO.Dorian had come to my room without knocking, which was standard. I had been in the middle of getting dressed after a shower when he suddenly barged in. "I need you to find something." He announced. I pulled my shirt on and turned around. "Have you heard of knocking?" "Have you heard of locking your door?" "Have you heard of privacy?"Lucian appeared in the do

    EZRA'S POV'It's been three fucking days and I am still here!' I mumbled to myself, staring at the ceiling. I didn't even have access to a watch and a window to know what time of the day it was. I was almost at the edge of madness. I didn't know what exactly was keeping me sane at this point. Riven had come three times during each day to keep me company which I didn't ask for. Just while I was cursing him out in my heart, the door opened and he stepped in. 'Speak of the devil.' I muttered, ignoring that he could hear it, all thanks to his sharp ears. He came on carrying a bag that smelled like something warm and looked at me. "You know I heard that, right? Good evening to you too." He said. "Let me go." "You've been saying that for a while now. Aren't you tired?" "Riven, I don't think you understand. I need to see Cole. He doesn't know where I am, he's probably panicking...he..." "He's fine." "You don't know that." "Trust me, I know enoug

  • ICE PRINCES OF HELL: Veins Of The Omega   CHAPTER: 20. SUSPECT.

    DORIAN'S POVThe city at night had a specific quality that I had stopped finding interesting approximately four hours ago. We had covered two locations since dinner. Both dead ends. It was starting to feel more like bad luck. I sat in the front seat and watched Voss City move past the windows and said nothing. "Riven still hasn't called back," Lucien said from the back seat. "He said he went for a run." Caius responded, not looking up from his phone. "A run." Lucian's voice had that particular flatness it got when he'd decided something was absurd but hadn't fully committed to saying so yet. "He's been on a run for over twenty hours already. Is the lack of blood already affecting him this much?" "Riven runs long when he needs to clear his head. You know that." "I know that when there's nothing happening. We're in the middle of looking for Ezra and then he goes for a six hour run." I kept my eyes on the road instead, not fully participating in their discussi

  • ICE PRINCES OF HELL: Veins Of The Omega   CHAPTER: 19. DON'T LOOK.

    EZRA'S POV "You need to shower."I looked at Riven from across the room, still standing against the locked door, whether this was a new category of problem or an extension of the existing one. "I'm fine." "No, you're not. You've been in those clothes for almost a day." He nodded toward the bag on the table. "There's a change in there. Bathroom's through that door." "I don't need you to..." "Ezra." He said my name flat and final like the conversation had already ended and I was the only one who hadn't caught up to that yet. I looked at the bathroom door then at the bag and then at him again. The truth was that I could feel the day on my skin and the heat residue still clinging underneath my clothes and the particular discomfort of someone who had been running on adrenaline, no proper rest and the idea of hot water was genuinely difficult to argue against even in the current circumstances. "Fine." I replied. "Turn around."He frowned. "I am not undressi

"Where are you?" "Went for a run. I won't be back soon. Why?" There was a pause before his voice came through. "We're heading out again in a few hours. It's another search radius for Ezra. Are you coming?"I watched the woman fold the top of the bag with the efficiency of someone who had done it ten thousand times. "No." "Riven..." "Keep me updated." I hung up. The woman held out the bag and I took it and paid and turned back toward the building. Behind me, two girls at the adjacent stall had dropped their conversatio
