Chapter 89
James
We were at the station in Romans office waiting for him. Nigel was refusing to just hand me the bracelet so I can go and hand it over and get my sister back. I know it wasn't that simple. We have dealt with so many kidnappings before and it was never that simple but I was willing to make it easy.
“What’s taking him so long?”
“Relax,” I looked at Nigel who fell silent.
He has been telling me to relax since two in the morning and now it is almost noon. We have been trying to do this alone as I was instructed in the envelope. No cops. Yeah right. I was a cop but guess this was an exception.
“Will you stop doing that? You are making me nervous.”
“We shouldn’t be in here,” I said, “Y

Harper “Faith!” I called. “Fay! FAY!” “Harper,” there was a whisper, “Harper… I can hear… I can’t see you. Harp… I’m -- I’m sc-scared,” “Breathe,” I spoke. “I can’t see… get this off… please… someone take it off,” she screamed. “Fay!” I took a breath. I tried to move the chair, “Keep talking, I come to you.” I don’t know how we got to be strained and blindfolded. We must have fallen asleep or drugged. I couldn't tell if it was day or night. Everything was pitch black. I could hear Faith wheezing. She was having an asthma attack. I needed to calm her down. “I’m almost there,” I said, “Keep talking,” I encouraged as I followed her voice and

Nick All I needed was for James to crack. I needed to put more pressure. I was angry and left the mansion, solving nothing. I thought filling my father on our progress would get him on board, but he was just cranky today. He seemed more interested in the food than in everything I told him. First it was James. Now it was her sister. What was it about that family and getting on my nerves? I placed my fork and knife on the table and looked at my father. This diner felt pointless.We were never the type of family bond over dinner. “Are you going to say something?” I asked. “What do you want me to say?” he looked at me before he went back to focusing on his plate. "It's not like you will listen to me."

Morgan I looked down at my phone and saw messages from Lara. She was with Nick. She was ranting about why I was calling Nick suddenly. I asked her where they were headed, but she didn’t reply. I bet I knew why Nick suddenly hung up on me. My bet she was enjoying the time she was having with Nick more than what her original intention was. I just hope she knows what she was doing considering she was right in the lion’s den. I clenched my fist furiously, remembering the reason I called Nick. He was trying to bankrupt all my personal businesses under my nose. The projects I had worked hard for on my own without the help of my father or the family name. I will not let that happen. He took advantage of the arrest. If it wasn’t for one person who had the shred of loyalty, I wouldn’t have known about this. He was doing this slyly, like the s

James I have been going around in circles. It has been almost a day since Harper and Faith were taken. I was going around trying to get help, but no one will help me. They wanted me to relax and wait. I couldn’t wait because she was the only family I had and I couldn’t lose my baby sister. I had been hard on her about the article she wanted to write. I should have understood and taken it easy on her. She was strong willed like me and she would do anything to make sure she executed her research beautifully. I couldn’t blame her for this. I just hope she was fine so I could tell her how proud I am of her for doing this. “James, did something happen?” Marko asked when he saw me in front of his doorstep. “Can I come in?” I felt uneasy standing in front of the entrance.

Nick I had Lara handled for now last night. I needed to figure out how to handle everything else that has been going on. It was all too much, but I refused to admit that to my father. He would rub it in my face or worse, call me weak. Memories of my childhood flashed in my head. A constant reminder of everything I had to endure through with my father. The demeaning words and the insults. The clawed in my head trying to scratch through to break me, but I refused. Breaking down would mean going somewhere dark. I didn't want to go back there. I squeezed the stress ball harder. The stupid the shrank in my hand. This was not even reaching the surface to being therapeutic for me. The only other thing would be to take the damn calming pills, but I didn't those. I don't want to be high and relaxed. I need to focus. Control and calm. I c

Razor I might be serving my own head on a silver platter here but Nick left me no choice. He was trying to prove he was his own man but he was failing. He can’t handle the power. He liked to be in control but he lacked the balance to execute things. He was crushing fast after speeding head strong too quickly. “Well I’ll be damned,” Charles laughed as he dropped his book and looked at me, “If it isn’t my best henchman.” “Boss,” I bowed a little. “I doubt my son would love it if he sees you calling me boss. Careful he might kill your family,” Charles laughed. I frowned as I took a step to him. I don’t think I have ever seen him like this. “Boss?” I paused looking at him, “Are you okay?” “Oh don’t w

James I knew this was a bad idea but I had no option. I had thought of all the possibilities and one stuck with me. I could be wrong about Nick and get my sister killed. I could be right and still get her killed. This was not an option. Harper back alive was my priority at the moment no matter the cost. Faith too. I can’t let those two die when I can do something. I wanted to help find Adam and go to Glendale but I couldn’t. I can’t leave Harper. I could lose her and fail to always protect her. I can’t fail her. My phone buzzed in my pocket and I swore under my breath as I quickly put it on silent and whispered. “Fred.” “James, James?” he said, “Are you there?” “Yes,” I whispered, “I can’t talk right now.” I said.

JamesI was not out of the woods yet. Not by a long shot. I was still inside the precinct crouching and crawling like a covert soldier in training. I was in too deep to turn myself in. I can’t get caught. Not now. Not until I save my sister. I had to get out of here.I held the bracelet a little tighter as a reminder of why I was doing this.I didn’t know how I was going to make it out and by the sound of the alarm and the heavy footsteps below me. I knew they were all instructed to capture me. I just needed to get to the roof.I knew this was not going to be easy but I was not going to surrender. I was nearing the grille closer to the stairs of the roof. I could hear officers guarding the place and I was locked in.“
