Amanda's POV Thomas walks beside me into the restaurant like we were best of friends .The place was filled with the smell of warm bread and roasted chicken, the kind of comfort food people eat when their hearts aren’t falling apart. Mine was "Amanda ." Sit down please he said pulling out a chair.I sit because my legs are weak, not because I want to.He waits until I look up before he speaks."I’m glad you agreed to come, we have a lot to talk about." He said smiling.I press my fingers together under the table. "You didn’t leave me much choice, Thomas."His smile is small. "I know. And you’re right. But I asked because I needed to talk to you… properly."What was he going to talk about, Ryan? Levi? Our earlier agreement? The thought of it made my skin crawl.He reaches out, brushing his thumb over my knuckles."You look tired." he murmured, his eyes not leaving mine."I am tired." I whispered. "I'm tired of everything that has been happening so far. Some days I want to wake up to

Amanda's POV I woke up slowly, my eyelids feeling heavy, my body still trembling from the stress of the past previous days. The morning light flashed across my face from the opened window making it hard for me to see clearly, I didn't know where I was. Then I felt the warmth beside me, Levi’s small body curled up, breathing softly. I felt relief wash through me."Levi." I whispered, brushing his hair from his face. "You’re okay, You’re really okay."He mumbled something in his sleep, and I laughed quietly, a shaky sound that barely left my lips. I turned, and there he was –Ryan. Standing there, watching me, his expression unreadable, like he had been waiting for me to wake, my chest tightened."Hey." he said softly, his voice soothing me and clearing the fear I had been carrying for the past "Ryan." I breathed, and before I could think, I flung myself into his arms. He caught me easily, his arms surrounding me, his steady heartbeat against mine. I didn’t care about the chaos o

Selene's POV I hated myself for saying that word for accepting to be under her but the minute it left my mouth, Clara exhaled like she had been waiting for that single breath all along. "Good girl." she said. "I’ll send instructions." The line went dead. I stared at the phone, still hearing her voice echoing in my head. I wanted to throw up. I wanted to scream. Instead, I stood up and walked into the small living room where my parents sat with anxious faces. My father’s eyes darted to my trembling hands. "Who was that?" he asked. I didn’t answer right away, I just sat down on the couch and gripped my knees until my knuckles turned white. "It was Clara." I finally said. My mother’s hand flew to her mouth. "No, Selene, no, you didn’t." "I answered." I said flatly. My father got up so fast the chair scraped the floor. "Selene, tell me you didn’t agree to do anything with that woman." I looked up at him, blinking through the sting in my eyes. "What choice do I have, Dad?" "Y

Ryan's POV I pulled up outside the safe house, my heart hammering in my chest. Even though the area was quiet, I couldn’t shake the feeling of being watched.Every shadow looked like a threat. every little movement felt like Clara or Thomas stepping from nowhere. My hands gripped the steering wheel until my knuckles turned white.I had left Amanda and Levi behind even though everything inside me had been shouting to stay back. I had parked at a location and watched her run into her parents' house like she had seen a ghost.My heart tore for her.I opened the door, and Blair ran toward me, her feet pounding on the pavement. "Daddy." she shouted, throwing herself into my arms.I caught her immediately, kneeling so her body pressed against mine. “Hey, hey… I’ve got you,” I murmured, breathing her in. Adam appeared behind her, eyes wide. "She has been getting better." His face filled with a kind of relief I haven't seen from him in ages."Did you see mummy." Blair asked, looking up at m

Amanda's POVThe air inside the room suddenly felt thicker than it was, I didn’t know if it was the dust in the room or the weight of Clara’s words still hanging between us. My throat felt tight, my fingers had suddenly gone stiff where they gripped my own knees, I couldn’t move, I couldn’t even breathe properly.Clara stood only a few steps away from me, her posture was steady, but her eyes were different now, they looked tired, sad and since she started the story, she looked older than she was when I first came in.She had just told me the one thing I never expected to hear, the thing that cracked something inside me, something I didn’t even know existed.Ryan’s father, he râpêd her. I had not met the man when I married his son, I was told he had died several years ago but the way he was spoken of, he was a man of power and principle.My stomach twisted again as the silence stretched out. I kept waiting for her to laugh, to say it was a lie, but she didn’t. She didn’t even blink.
