"Hurry, Millie!" I shouted as I headed to the front door. She was running late, which made me run late, but I didn't want to leave her behind anymore, so Declan would take her to school without informing me.

"Ugh, what now?" I groaned when I heard her scream in the kitchen.

I turned around and walked back down the hallway. Rosa was standing at the counter with a lunch box in one hand and a pair of tongs in the other, and Millie was standing on the other side of the kitchen island wit

    •SLOANE•I saw Nymeria the moment the elevator doors opened and internally rolled my eyes. She was sitting near the far wall of the lobby with a folder open on her knee and a pen in her hand, looking down at whatever she was writing. She hadn't noticed me yet.I adjusted the strap of my overnight bag and crossed the lobby toward the corridor.I made it four steps before she looked up.We looked at each other for a moment without speaking. Then I changed direction and walked toward her because walking away would have looked worse than stopping."Nymeria." I smiled. "What a joy to see you here." She closed the folder over her pen. "Sloane." She looked at my bag. "What are you doing here?""I came to surprise Declan," I answered. "We haven't had much time together since the season started, and I thought it would be nice to be here for the win." I placed my bag down beside me. "I heard it was a good game.""It was," she replied."He must be happy." I looked at the corridor where the noi

    •NYMERIA•I leaned back against the pillow and tried to calm my breathing. After everything I heard, I didn’t think I could sleep. I kept feeling scared that someone might break the door down and hurt me.What he said about “the girl” made me nervous. Besides the girl from marketing and me, there were no other girls at the game.The cheerleaders didn’t count because they didn’t really work with us. Still, I shook my head and told myself I was probably overthinking everything.Even though Declan was dating my best friend, he had always been kind to me. I couldn’t imagine him planning to hurt me or any other girl.I got out of bed and poured myself a glass of lemon juice from the counter. Then, I sat on the edge of the bed in the dark and tried to relax.Maybe he was talking about someone else. A player’s girlfriend, someone from the sponsors, or somebody from the league office.“The girl” could mean anyone, and “not yet” could mean lots of different things depending on the conversation

    •NYMERIA•"Please don't worry about Millie, she will be fine," Rosa convinced me in the morning while I was busy looking for excuses to miss the game. "Sara and I will take care of her." Rosa had hired a nanny for Millie and promised to keep her inside the house until I returned from the game, but I was worried. I couldn't imagine the thought of her being out there with strange men who offered her candies for unknown reasons. It made me feel frightened that all the terrors and miseries from Drakenfall had followed us to Hollowshade.Millie couldn't even tell us how she got to the park or where she found my medallion. Everything was confusing, and I didn't want to leave her behind without knowing what was really happening. I didn't even know if the strange man was Leonard or the same person who had slipped that note under my office door in the facility. "Are you sure you will manage with her?" I sighed as I placed my hands on my waist. "We don't even know how she got to the park,

    •DECLAN•"FUCK!" I snapped as I yanked the files against the wall in my office. I couldn't believe that this entire time, it was Nymeria.I couldn't wrap my mind around that thought without feeling sick.I looked at the documents on the floor, picked them up, and threw them into my trash bin. I then grabbed my lighter from the counter and lit everything on fire.I watched as the flames engulfed all the documents and left nothing but ashes."Baby, where's the smoke coming from?" Sloane asked outside the door, and she twisted the doorknob before she realized it was locked. "Declan, open the door!""Everything's fine," I replied. "Go to bed.""What are you burning in there?""Old documents," I answered. "Nothing important. Go to bed, Sloane."She sighed, and then her footsteps moved away from the door and down the hallway.I turned back to the bin and watched the last edges of the papers curl and blacken. The photograph was the last thing to go. I watched it until there was nothing left

    •DECLAN•"Babe!"I stopped at the front entrance with my hand on the doorknob when I heard Sloane's voice behind me. I was still frustrated about the files with Nymeria's name before she yanked it out of my hands.I turned to her and smiled. "Yes?""Are you going to come home early tonight?" she asked. "I hired a new wedding planner, and I wanted you to meet her. I think she's what we needed from the beginning.""I thought the wedding plans were on hold until three months before the actual date?""Well, I want to be prepared. Besides," she sighed as she leaned closer. "This will be our first and only wedding. So, I want us to plan the wedding early. Don't you think so?"I looked at her for a moment and sighed. "Handle whatever you need to handle with the planner," I replied. "Send me the costs when you have numbers, and I'll take care of it.""I want you there, Declan. It's not just about the money.""I know," I answered. "But I have a full day, and I can't promise I'll be back early

    •NYMERIA•"Nymeria, what's wrong?" Rosa asked when she found my room upside down. I had turned over the bed, emptied my closet, and all my bags, looking for the medallion.I felt like I was losing my mind because it was the only thing that my mother gave me and told me never to lose it.She trusted me with it for some reason, and I had only one job. To keep it safe so it didn't land in the wrong hands."I am looking for my coin-sized medallion," I answered her. "It was in my bag when we arrived here, but now I can't find it anywhere. I don't know where it is."Rosa stepped into the room and looked around at the mess. "What does it look like?""It's a small, dark metal, about the size of a large coin. The edges have markings on them." I picked up the emptied tote bag from the floor and shook it again even though I had already done that twice. "It's always in the inside zip pocket. Always. I haven't taken it out since we arrived."Rosa crouched down and checked under the bed, running he
