Kael's pov I don't even know how long I've been locked up here but I know I've spent three nights since I regained consciousness. The cuffs had been removed but the room was locked from outside, leaving me alone in a prison-like room with a small toilet and heavy silence. Every morning, Mr Kim graced me with his presence. Bringing breakfast and lunch like he was visiting one of his family members. This morning, the door groaned as it opened, the sound slicing through the silence of the room like a blade. But the moment the person stepped in, I didn't need to look to know who it was.It wasn't Mr Kim, it was Karl Palmer. The bastard behind the scheme. “See who finally decides to visit his only son,” I said, sarcasm laced in my voice. “You look pathetic,” he said flatly, closing the door behind him. “But I don’t know if that’s good fortune or bad.”I pushed myself upright on the narrow hospital bed, pain flaring through my side. “Looking pathetic is better than being pathetic. You

Arian's pov I wasn't expecting anyone to knock on my door. But as soon as the persistent knock came, I ran to the door without wasting time. Who knows who it could be? To my surprise, it was the last person I was expecting. “Mrs Palmer,” I said, surprised. “What are you doing here? How do you know my house?”She gave me the faintest smile. “I'm the director of the school for a reason. And I couldn’t just sit back anymore, Arian.Her words could have been ordinary but they weren't because her face alone was a map of worry. I didn't know how long I stood at the door, staring at her until her voice came again. “May I come in?” she asked. “Of course,” I managed to say, creating space for her to come in. She went straight to the worn-out couch and sat like she was used to sitting there. Andy was in the kitchen, but he appeared immediately he heard voices that were not mine. Surprise plastered on his face as soon as he saw Mrs Palmer. “Mrs Palmer, this is Andy, my father,” I introdu

Arian's pov It would be a lie if I said I wasn't expecting Mrs Palmer's call. I was hoping she would call me to give me news about the commissioner. But two days have passed and nothing from him yet. Instead of waiting only, I drove around the streets close to the junkyard. I tried to look for abandoned houses or warehouses that might be good to hide a kidnapped person but nothing seemed strange to me. Today, I was at home when my phone rang beside me. I glanced at the screen and Hazel's name flashed boldly on it. My pulse spiked as I remembered that I had forgotten that she was helping too. And I know her so well, she wouldn’t be calling unless something was happening.I swiped to answer. “Hello?”Her voice came through low. “The last time I checked, teammates don't abandon each other,” she said. “Don't tell me you called me to teach me the values of teamwork?” “I’m on him,” she said, causing my heart to skip. “I’ve been on him since morning.”I sat up straighter. “On Karl?”“

Arian's pov Then Andy's voice broke through the silence. “Have you seen anything?” Yes. I've seen the person I desperately wanted to see. I've found the person I desperately wanted to find. “Kael,” I called out again, and slowly, he turned to face me. His expression was somber, his eyes heavy with a weight that seemed to drag him down. Andy was behind me but I barely registered his presence. My focus was solely on the person in front of me, my concern and attention drawn to his face.“Arian,” he said, his voice tinged with sadness and disbelief. “Is this really you or am I dreaming?” he asked.“Kael,” I said, my voice thick with relief as I touched his arm. “It's me. Finally, I found you.”My eyes scanned him from his messy long hair, to his heavy eyelids, to the faint bruises on his face. My eyes took in the faint bruises that were on his arm too. “What happened? How did you end up here?” Still looking at me like he couldn't believe I was really, he touched my hand. “It's a long

Kael's pov Mr Kim gave in to help but he didn't follow us for the ride. Andy drove us away from the place and I couldn't wait to go back home. Home, not House. Home is where Arian or my mother is. I didn't realize that until I was locked up in that prison. I thought every roof was considered a home but my perspective changed after my horrible experience. Andy drove us straight to the hospital and I had to ask if he or Arian was hurt. When he said I need to get a check up immediately, I was surprised because Mr Kim made sure I finished all my doses. I wanted to argue that I didn't need anymore check up until Arian said “what if he was giving me the wrong drugs?” That question alone made me quiet until we got to the hospital.I remember entering the hospital buildings. I remember when Andy busied himself, explaining things to the nurse. I remembered the nurse leading me to a room. I guess that was the last thing I remembered before waking up again. The white ceilings were the first
