Phill's POVI rarely slept at work. I had no idea when I had dozed off over my desk. The vibration from my phone woke me up. I rubbed my eyes as I stared at the screen. Not one, not two but fifteen missed calls from Mercy. I immediately called her back. She answered at the first ring. " Thank goodness you are alive. I thought I would have to send someone to check after you as well. Where the hell were you, Phill? " I rubbed my eyes and strained to look at the clock. It was almost twelve. It would be early morning in Paris. Why was Mercy yelling at me early in the morning? " What's up, Mercy? Is everything alright in Paris? " I heard her heaving a deep sigh. " Everything is fine here but nothing is alright back home. You need to head over to Lea's place immediately. Her son is missing! " " Wait! What? " I almost fell from my chair. " Yes! Our nephew went missing about an hour or two ago. Lea said she saw a hooded figure or something like that around her garage.In her camera feed

Jake threw another punch, barely missing the officer's jaw. "You don't get it! My kid is missing! I need to get back home!I need to see him.I didn't even get to hold him... " "Sir, calm down!" The officer, struggling to hold Jake back, shouted. "We need you to cooperate!" "I am cooperating! But you people are wasting time! Every second counts!" Jake's voice was raw with desperation,breaking,cracking,squeaking.Lea stepped forward.Her eyes were wide with fear as she tried to intervene, "Please, he's telling the truth! Our son is out there, we need to find him!" She tried to reason with another officer, her voice shaking. "He's only three!He must be so scared. " "Ma'am, we need both of you to come to the station. We'll sort this out there," the officer said firmly, grabbing her arm. Lea yanked her arm back. "You're not listening! If anything happens to Kai, it'll be on you!" She was fuming but it was no use. They were on foreign soil and they had broken their rule. Jake was being

It was way beyond 24 hours and there were still no signs of any call from the kidnappers. The reports confirmed that the blood on the rod was Kai's and from the amount of blood that they had found, the child had a serious injury. The cops weren't ruling out a murder angle to the situation but only Phill and Mercy knew about it. They didn't have the guts to tell Lea and Jake the about the development. " We will be looking out for unidentified bodies of toddlers, Kai's age. I know it's difficult but we have seen worst in our career! " Phill grabbed the collar of the officer who was briefing him but let go immediately. The officer patted his back understandingly. " I hope and I pray with all my heart that we are wrong and that the kids is safe. Rest assured to are juggling all possibilities here. We will not rest until we get his whereabouts. " Lea paced the hall looking repeatedly at the phones.She was still waiting for the kidnappers to call. It was already night, the next day and

The intercom beeped and Lea answered immediately.Before she could enquire about the person at the door, the security informed that she had a delivery,an urgent one, so they allowed the delivery man inside. Lea nodded with acknowledgment and turned the knob. The man handed Lea a big parcel and made her sign at several places. But there was no name for a sender. She quickly closed the door after her and rushed inside with the parcel. She set it on the floor and ripped the tapes open, her fingers hunting for what was inside. But the moment she opened the box, her eyes shot up. The whites in her eyes took over before her eye lids closed shut and she fell back on the floor. " Lea, noooo!!! " Jake and Phill rushed towards her from either side but it was too late. Her head crashed on the cold hard ground as Phill skidded to a halt and lift her head up on his lap. He immediately proceeded to check her breath and the back of her head for injury. Jake fell beside her, taking her hand in hi

" Lea, why did you come down all by yourself? Didn't I tell you not to get up and rest? You should not... " Jake ran towards her as she stumbled out of the door but he wasn't prepared for what greeted him. His face turned to the other side as a hot red flush appeared on one of his cheeks. Lea slapped him with all her might and he stood there, speechless, staring. Mercy and Phill gaped at them as well but neither dared to move. " Oh, please shut it! I have had enough of your bossing around. I am not going to take anymore of your nonsense. " She walked straight up to Phill who was watching them with his mouth wide open. Without warning she smacked her lips onto his and started kissing him like her life depended on it. Jake and Mercy thought their eyes were playing some trick but she continued kissing Phill, holding onto his shirt before ripping it apart, grappling his neck for support. " I should have done this right after I left you the first time. All that you and your family ha
