Chapter 50. Stripped.

Anna’s tears came hot and relentless, spilling past her trembling hands as though her body no longer knew how to contain them. Her chest ached with the violent rise and fall of her breath, every sob tearing her thinner, and hollower. She didn’t know which wound hurt more: the terror of Alex throwing her out again with no one to catch her fall, or the exposure of Gary’s betrayal, slicing away the one ally she thought she had left. Maybe it was Maya’s face flashing in her mind, still in captivity because of her, or worse, it was the sound of Gary’s voice curling around her son’s name.Her whole body shook with the weight of it. She felt naked, stripped and broken to marrow.“That’s very callous, Gary,” she had mummured, her voice shredded with tears.But now the silence was worse. Twenty minutes had crawled by since the call ended, and Alex hadn’t spoken a word. He just stood there immovable, and dangerous. His face was unreadable, his eyes shadowed in thought. The silence pressed on he

The door swung open without a knock. Alex stepped in, the very face Anna had ached to see. But his eyes were cold and unreadable, already stripping her bare. Anna’s chest caved as the desperate plea tore from her lips “Alex, please… they’re going to kill Maya.” Her hand fumbled for the phone on the bed, trembling as she reached to play the voice note. But before she could press the screen, his voice cut clean through her panic. “I heard voices earlier” Alex’s voice was calm, but edged with steel. “Care to explain?” The question wasn’t curiosity, more like an accusation. Her blood spiked, temper flaring hot enough to scorch her fear. “Why not ask your whore for an assistant?” The words snapped out sharper than she intended, brittled with rage. “For a heartbeat, silence reigned.
