The glass door rattles when he storms out of the café.Clara's still sitting across from me, her trembling hands holding firmly onto the brown envelope Liam had left behind. I watch her blink rapidly, fighting tears that hover stubbornly at the edges of her lashes.“This was a total waste of time, Laura. I shouldn’t have come,” she whispers. “I shouldn’t have even hoped he'd forgive me.”I release a slow breath, sinking into the chair he just vacated, “He just needs time, Clara. You said a lot of convincing stuff. He’s angry, yes, but I think he heard you.”Her lips twitch as though she wants to smile but it comes out as a grimace instead. Her skin looks paler now, almost translucent under the weak afternoon light slipping through the café window. “You really think he’ll ever forgive me?” she asks, her voice trembling.“I don’t know,” I admit softly. “But Liam surprises me sometimes.”She nods faintly, then

DENVER'S POV There's a smirk on her face as her brown boots clang on the marbled floor. "Hello, boyfriend." She drags the last word sarcastically, lowering herself into the leather seat opposite mine. She drags her leg over the other ensuring I have a good look of her thighs through the short, flay leopard print skirt she's putting on. It's not giving the effect she's hoping it would, unfortunately she doesn't know this. Yet. "What're you doing here?" I ask, pouring the rest of the whiskey bottle down my throat. "You're not happy to see me? Awww." Then she cackles with annoying laughter. Anyway, I came to offer my condolences to your stepmother. I saw the news." I nod absentmindedly. "Thank you. Is that it?" She shrugs, "What were you expecting?" I don't know, that's the truth. A part of me wanted her to walk in here with bags around her eyes and some tears glistening in them, asking me to forgive her for almost ruining my business and begging not to be stripped of her positio

LAURA'S POV Liam's waiting in front of the police station like he did the last time. There are no flowers in his hands this time, instead there are dark circles around his eyes, his shoulders sagging like the weight of the world is on his shoulders."Baby," he opens his arms wide to envelop me in a tight hug. "I'm so sorry about everything you've had to pass through because of me." The first tear slips down my cheeks. "Where's my son?" "He's with the nanny. I asked her to call me if anything comes up.""I sniffle against Liam's shoulder, "I was so scared. I thought...I saw my life flash before my eyes and in that moment all I could think of was you and my son."His arms wrap tighter around my waist, nose digging into my hair, "Nothing would happen to you. Not under my watch. Let me get things sorted with the cops, we'll head straight for the hospital so you can see him."I nod, releasing myself from his grip. When he returns, we both get into the car. "I need a tow truck to get m

NERIAH'S POV "M...Myles?" His eyes sweep over me, stopping at the dress in my hands. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to barge in. I thought you'd be up and ready to leave."My lashes blink rapidly as heat flushes up my neck and cheeks. "I.. I'm preparing." He nods and turns around, "And your friend?" "She too. We'll be down soon." Satisfied, he walks away without another word. Shit! "So that's Myles?" My heart skips with fear as her voice crawls up my ears. "What's your problem?" Pushing past her I storm into the bathroom, locking the door after me. I can still hear her annoying chuckle wafting through the air. "I should be asking you what the problem is. The man's pretty." I'm sure she has her mouth pressed against the space in between the door and its hinges. What a pest. "You can have him for yourself then," I call out, grabbing one of the new toothbrushes from a pack, scrubbing my teeth fiercely to get rid of the stench of alcohol from my breath. Why the hell did Myles bring m

DENVER'S POV "The number you're trying to reach is currently unavailable..."Neriah pick your fucking phone!She's really not at her own place and Eden doesn't know where she is either. If her phone were turned on, I'd have traced her location, instead I asked Ethan to find out where Myles Maverick's apartment is located. He found fifty-two buildings across the state. Where the hell do I begin to search her out from?Turning off the engine of the Ferrari in front of Sara's house, I lean my forehead on the steering wheel. This is all so tiresome. Why can't life just be the way I want it? Why does it always have to be fucking complicated?Sara's face peeks out of the window and in a couple of seconds, she's running down her front steps. Her usually glowing face looks dry and completely void of any form of color. "Hey, what's wrong?" I ask walking out of the car. She throws her arms around my neck, a sob racking her fram

NERIAH'S POV There's a chainsaw driving through my brain. My lids flicker open, forcing my eyes to adjust to the brightness in the room. This place...there are golden chandeliers, twinkling like the stars, a ceiling fan twirling like the wings of angels. My body is bound by soft, white sheets..these must be clouds. I must be in heaven. But...how did I die?That splitting ache pierces through my head again, bringing back the memory of the evening before. I'd dropped at a bar and then I met with someone, a lady. Who was she?Someone's palm grazes my arm causing me to squeal loudly. Grabbing the sheets over my chest, I turn to look into large, blue eyes. "What the hell?" She looks around her, confusion etched all over her expression. So she too doesn't know where she is or how she got here. "Where am I? You're that girl from the lab, aren't you?" My eyes widen with recognition. Aha! She's that lab

LAURA'S POV My phone begins to ring again. It's Liam. "Laura, where the hell are you?""Just listen to me," I cut in panting heavily, "Honey I'm in trouble, this guy has a gun and he's after me. Call the cops, I'm at Hillview Lane." He doesn't say another word. I scramble down the hill switching off the flashlight in my hand so I can feel around for something sharp to tear my tires. He must not get away with my car, that's the only thing that can keep my son and husband safe right now. My hand finally scratches something. I feel the painful tear in my skin and that makes me pick it up. It's a shard of glass. Crawling on all fours, I find my way to the tires and do a little slash until I feel the air bursting free from them. I can hear his heavy footsteps now so I find my way to a huge rock on the other side of the road so I can still see the bastard and my car. His hand is still pressed to his bleeding head when he
