Maya's pov

I chew down on my eggs Cassian seated across from me lost in thought. I can't believe I'm here with him yet he might disappear within the snap of a finger.

After all, it took for us to be together again.

“I've spoken to my boss,” Giovanni says entering the kitchen. He holds a phone in his right hand, his face set into finishing this.

Cassian looks at him. “And?”

He looks away before he speaks and my stomach twists. “He said we can go in.”

I huff feeling my heart pound in my chest, this is really happening. “You won't arrest him right?” I ask just for clarification. I can't go in and have them switching up on us.

“No, right now he still hasn't made up his mind if he is the enemy or the witness,” he says, still not meeting my eyes.

Cassian glares at him, his lips pressed into a thin line. “It's not an easy decision.”

I rub his hand and his lips tug up. “Let's just go and see what deal they offer you.”

“What if I don't like it, or it requires me to spend time in pri

    Maya's povI grab my things from the police station not believing that I don't know where Cassian is. “I have the right to know where my husband is,” I mumbled looking at the guy handing me my things. I've called everybody I can think about and contacted whatever force responsible for this constant turmoil in my life but I come back empty every time.Not knowing how Cassian is faring out.“Ma'am that issue is being solved by the Mexican police, not me, now grab your things and move along,” the woman barks looking like she is about to attach her palm to my face.I take my phone and keys leaving the station. It has been three days of agonizing torture and I can barely keep myself steady to keep my baby alive.Any more stress and this creature growing inside of me will disappear when it's the only thing I have of Cassian or Holden. I rub my stomach the hot air nipping at my skin.I walk further down the street to where my bags lay in wait. LA has been nothing but a sob story and I don't

    Cassian's povI look at the papers not believing this is finally over. I can get my life back and most importantly Maya.I grab the pen the light material feeling heavy in my hands. I've betrayed everyone I know, my men, all those who have worked under me the ones that I've worked with and suddenly bile rises my throat.What would my father say if he was here right now?What kind of leader am I? That I would let my men go down while I walk away scot-free.Maya's laugh echoes and suddenly all those thoughts disappear. She has managed to destroy me only with her touch and now I've destroyed everything for a life with her.“Do you have any questions?” Christian asks looking at the papers wearily.The muscle in his neck pulses and I swallow shaking my head. My eyes lower looking at where I'm supposed to sign. I can do this. For Maya.“You just have to sign that and it will all be over,” Christian says again and my throat tightens.I read over the first page inputting my signature not givi

    Maya's povThey think I'm somehow responsible for all of this when I haven't even lifted a finger to hurt anyone. I rake my fingers through my hair somehow disgusted it hasn't been washed for so long. My stomach twists from hunger or anxiety I can't seem to make out which is which.They left hours ago and nobody has brought me anything to eat or drink. Do they think I'm made of stone?I knock on the door and after a few seconds it opens.“I'm really hungry can you get me something to eat?” I ask rubbing my stomach.He groans coming back with an orange. I grimace. “I need food, like real food.”He rolls his eyes closing the door on my face. I return to the seat peeling it silently while my stomach rumbles. I'm sure this is against the law.I huff taking slow bites savoring the taste but my mind drifts back to Cassian. How is he doing?Are they giving him a hard time?Tired of not knowing anything about what is going on I stand from the seat to call but my legs start feeling weak and I

    Cassian's povI look at my guards and without saying a word they let me in. I park my car exiting the mansion. I'm hoping to speak to Holden and ask him to leave before any bad things happen.“I thought I told you never to come back here,” Matteo spits, walking towards me in a crisp brown suit that is tailored to his body.“Already spending the money I see,” I mumbled looking at his shoes. This whole thing looks like it costs more than fifty thousand dollars.He smiles. “Of course, what do you want?”“To talk to Holden, where is he?”“Depends on what you want to talk about.”I groan. “Just tell him that I need a moment of his time.”His grin widens. “Do you see how tables turn?” He asks inching closer. “Years ago it was him begging for your attention and now it's you.”I roll my eyes and a twinge of guilt crosses my heart cause somehow he is right. I never treated Holden with the respect he deserved.“I'm not begging, I just have something important to tell him.”He nods, slipping his

    Maya's povApprehension claws at my skin every minute I'm in here. They separated me from Cassian and my fear of losing him has only intensified. Why would they separate us?My hands shake beneath the table as I look at the metal door waiting for someone to come in and tell me this is all over.That we can go back to our new lives and we will never have to talk about it, but nobody has come to see me for hours.I stand again, my legs numb. The roots of my hair have faced the consequences of being stuck in here and if I stay another minute longer I will go crazy.“Hey,” I call banging on the door. “Is somebody there?” I ask, my voice shaking despite my best attempts.I hear some noises and it opens revealing a young female police officer. “What is going on?” I ask my eyes to sweep over the hall to see if I can spot Giovanni.“In terms of?”“Why hasn't anybody come to talk to me?”She sighs. “Just get back in there they will come to you when they can,” she says pointing inside the room

    Cassian's povMaya was taken out of the room due to some talk about protocol and whatnot and I know it's all bullshit. My leg bounces up and down under the table, my eyes traveling around the room like it holds the answer.I've never been in a situation like this in my life. Where I'm constantly folding my feet and wondering what's next. I'm always one step ahead and somehow this time I'm ten steps behind.The door creaks open and a black woman dressed in a crisp blue suit and an old white man in an oversized grey suit enters looking confused as hell.They take the chairs across from me before the woman speaks. “My name's Agent Muni and this agent is Christian and we will be taking over from now on.”My brows furrow. “What happened to Giovanni?”The old man — Christian, clears his throat. “As she said, we will be taking over from now on.”His voice is gruff and cold and I immediately know what we talked about has been thrown out of the door.Is this a setup?“So you're ready to confes
