My eyelids fluttered open, assaulted by a pale wash of morning light filtering through the curtains. For a moment I lay still, disoriented, the ceiling above me unfamiliar yet hauntingly safe.

The guest room smelled faintly of antiseptic, proof that Mrs. Wilkens had left her touch on the place before retreating for the night. The IV drip was gone, replaced by a dull soreness in my arm where the needle had been. My body felt heavy, weak, but no longer on the brink of collapse.

The bigger ache wasn’t physical. It was the emptiness at my side.

Emilio had been there when I fell asleep — his shoulder had been the last thing I clung to before darkness pulled me under. Now the chair was empty, the blanket folded neatly where he must have draped it over me during the night. My throat tightened, though I couldn’t explain why. Maybe because hi

    Emilio’s POV Lyla’s head was on my lap. She was making cute baby noises, and I watched her sleep, stroking her hair. “We will be there soon,” Xiomar said from the front. He had taken over driving from Achilles after God knows how many miles, forcing my elder brother to rest. I peered outside. “Do you think we would be accepted?” Xiomar said nothing. Isaiah glanced up, looking at me. “Geez, I'm his son,” he hissed. “He can't hate me that much.” I narrowed my eyes at my cousin. “You told him we were coming right?” Isaiah looked away. “What does telling him mean exactly?” “Did you tell your father we were coming?” “Seeing you three betrayed him, and refused to return home, I did not,” Isaish shrugged. “I am sure he would not be so angry.”Emilio’s POV Lyla’s head was on my lap.

    LYLA’S POV The man grabbed me by my forearm. “Follow me,” he hissed. I glanced back at my men. “Where will you take them?” “None of your business,” he hissed, dragging me into the large house. “But don't worry, I won't kill them. Not yet.” I swallowed. Emilio had called him his uncle, and Isaiah called him father. I thought he was an orphan. How come he— “Do you know who I am, young girl?” I shook my head. “No. They never spoke about you.” Isaiah trailed behind us. “There was a reason for that, Lyla,” he answered. “My father is—” “My son is dead,” the man hissed. “He died the day he ran away. I do not know you.” “Father, please,” he begged. “Get lost,” he said. “Before I shoot you.” I watched Isaiah slink away. “You should not scream at your child like that,” I said. The man glared at me. “We're going to my study.” I walked behind him. “Your house, it's beautiful.” It was almost as big as Christians. “Thank you,” he said. “I got it from my father, and he go
