I made a beeline straight to the kitchen. The mouth-watering aroma of dishes wafting across the kitchen permeated my nostrils. Instantly, my stomach growled in hunger, reminding me I hadn't eaten anything yet. Grey was temporarily forgotten; breakfast was all I could think about for now.A young female servant saw me and gave me a polite smile, which I responded to with equal warmth. “What would you like to have for breakfast, Miss Lily?” she asked as she washed her hands in the sink.“I'll have a vegetable sandwich, yogurt, and a glass of milk,” I replied shyly. I wanted to help her prepare my breakfast, but Isabelle was with me, so I could do nothing but watch. I still wasn't used to the idea of having a servant prepare breakfast for me, but Mom and Dad made sure I was well taken care of.“I feel like eating something sweet. I want to have some fruit if we have any.” Grace made her way to the refrigerator and pulled it open, revealing a wide selection of fruits. “We have apples, av

A long pause lapsed between Grey and me as we exchanged horrified glances. The only sounds we could hear were Dylan's tearful cries on the other line. I pushed away the urge to burst into tears and gathered my resolve to speak up. “D-Dylan, Mommy is here… Please stop crying,” I softly whispered. Unable to control my emotions any longer, tears fell down my flushed cheeks like waterfalls. “Everything will be alright, honey… Mommy will come to get you,” I added, biting my lips to suppress the wretched sob escaping my lips.“Do you believe me now, Lily?” the robotic voice asked as Dylan's tearful cries slowly faded into distant whimpers until his voice couldn't be heard anymore.Panic rose inside me when I could no longer hear Dylan's voice, even from a distance. “What did you do to my son, you bastard?” I hissed under my breath, wishing lightning would strike and kill him instantly.“He's so noisy. I just made him fall asleep for a while. Don't worry, he'll wake up soon, just in time for

We were halfway to our destination when I pulled my car to the side of the road. Grey parked his car in a safe spot before he emerged from inside. With quick, long steps, he crossed the distance between us, reached my car, and climbed inside. Once he was settled and comfortable in his seat, he gestured for me to continue driving.Obediently, I maneuvered my car back onto the road and continued to drive quietly. Grey fished his phone out of the pocket of his black hoodie jacket and called someone. Despite not being able to hear the other side, I knew what the conversation was about. He was calling a friend to take his car where he had left it, using the duplicate key.After he told the person on the other line about the location, the call ended. He returned the phone to his pocket. The inside of the car went silent throughout the trip. We were both tense, and our minds skittered to faraway places to even start a conversation.I couldn't shake the feeling of dread swelling inside me. I

The shot reverberated inside the room, mingled with the sound of my own horrified scream. I closed my eyes and waited for the pain to strike. I even expected blood to flow from my injury, but there was nothing. Counting a few more seconds, still nothing happened. No wound and no pain. Reluctantly, my eyes opened, and I found Ash looking at me with a sinister grin on his face. The terror he saw in my expression pleased him in a horrible way. He crossed the distance between us and pressed the muzzle of the gun against my temple.The moment the cold, hard metal touched my skin, terror swelled inside me until it grew to the size of a monster. I could barely breathe. Without looking in Grey's direction, I knew he was feeling the same way, watching the gun pressed against my temple. The deafening sound of my heartbeat resounded in my ears, and I wondered if the two men could hear it too. Perhaps they couldn't at all, but I felt as though the world had stopped turning, and the only sound I c

The police finally arrived. Too tired to even move, I stayed in my place. I didn't know how long I'd been seated on the ground until I heard footfalls approaching behind me. Without looking back, I knew it was Grey. I just knew it was him.“Lily?” His soft voice confirmed my assumption, and he pulled to a stop beside me, kneeling on the ground. I raised my tear-streaked eyes to him and saw panic and fear shining through his hazel-green eyes.“Is Dylan alright?” The words barely emerged from his lips. He looked at me with a wretched expression on his face. That must have been the same look on my face when I first thought Dylan was gone.“He's still weak, but Dylan is alright, Grey,” I replied, warm tears flowing down my cheeks in abundance.Grey slumped beside me. The weight he seemed to carry heavily on his shoulders disappeared as he let go of the breath he wasn't aware he was still holding. His hands covered his face, and he stayed that way for a while.“Grey?” I called weakly, wond
