As she sprang to her feet, she stretched her arms and surveyed the entire place.Swallowing the huge lump in her throat, she cast a glance around the dimly lit warehouse, her heart racing with anxiety. She was scared. Deeply scared because she was going to attempt another risky move..She had been waiting for what felt like an eternity for the perfect moment to escape. As she neared the door, she peeped, trying to see if both men were approaching. Everywhere was quiet.

ETHAN'S POVI alighted from the car, slamming the door with more force than necessary, a frown etched on my face as I headed toward the door towards the hospital. My mind was everywhere. I hadn’t expected things to turn out this way, but I hated being torn in the middle of everything.My eyes had caught sight of Alaric. I stopped, stood rooted to a spot for a moment, the same bitterness etching up my throat and clawing at my insides at the sight of him. I balled my fists at my sides, putting on a determination to ignore them.A light laughter came from their direction."I'm relieved, you know. I'm sorry things wound up this way..I was genuinely scared all through it," a female had spoken, leaning against Alaric, their arms locked together. The bastard! Was he cheating around openly?.. What sort of people did that at a hospital?"Scarlett going missing would've broken you and me as well. But now she's found, I think it’s better. She's up, and how is she faring? Is she perhaps healing w

Scarlet's POV~I sat in the cold police station, my hands shaking on my lap. The bright lights made everything feel harsh and scary. I kept looking at the door, waiting for them to bring Jasmine in. My heart was beating so fast I thought everyone could hear it.When the door opened, Jasmine walked in with a police officer. She looked perfect, like always.

We need to ask you some questions about Scarlett's kidnapping."Jasmine looked at me with big, surprised eyes. She acted like she had no idea what anyone was talking about. "Kidnapping? What kidnapping? Scarlett, what happened to you?"I wanted to jump up and y

Scarlett’s POV ~I felt somewhat relieved with Dylan's appearance and his determination to find Hector and his accomplice. After everything, Dylan still checks in on me, showing he still cares about my well-being despite our recent split. His actions have left a lingering emotional investment in me and I couldn't help but feel grateful. I also wondered if I had overreacted about his relationship with Hilary and maybe there wasn't anything serious going on between them. Dylan's eyes locked onto mine, a hint of concern in them.
