Chapter 111 Ethan's Pov

“I have to find a way to get to her.*“Yes, you do.” Nora agreed. Her voice was high pitched as she sat listening to me. Her gaze flickered between me and the television. I couldn't tell if she was listening to me or just distracted from her show by the sound of my voice.I stopped speaking for a few seconds. Her eyes remained on the screen for a while, eventually, she turned wide-eyed. “Did something happen?*“No. I just thought you weren't listening.*“I'm listening.”“I see that.”She adjusted.closer, Lily was in her room by now, distracted by a book or something else. The poor child hated that Mia wasn't here, but as the days went by, she started to grasp reality fast enough.“So what do you want to do now?” Nora distracted me from my thoughts as she poked me with the end of the remote.“I don't know.”“Look, I know you love this girl but I don't think you should do whatever's going through your mind.”“What's going through my mind?”She nodded. “I've known you for long, Ethan. I

Chapter 112 Mia's Pov

The words he said did not leave the room as quickly as the other, when he had said them.They also didn't soften with time or distance. Or even breathe, because they settled into the space between us with a weight that made everything feel still.“I should punish you for that…”I did not move, not because I did not want to, but because every instinct in me understood that if I moved now, it could interpreted into something I could not take back.So instead, I held myself in place and let my breathing remain.Even my pulse climbed in a way that felt dangerously close to death, but I remained still regardless.Ben did not step closer either. That was the first thing that unsettled me, because I expected him to do that.I expected the shift into something physical, something immediately, something I could at least recognize and prepare for in a way that made sense.But instead, he remained where he was, watching me with the same careful attention that made it feel like he was waiting for

Chapter 113 Ethan's Pov

The road stretched ahead of me in long, empty lines that blurred the more I drove, not because I wasn't paying attention but because my mind refused to stay anchored to anything in front of me when everything inside me was focused somewhere else.On her. On that call.On the way her name had sounded in Nora's voice when she told about it, strained in a way that didn't sit right now matter how many times I tried to convince myself it could have been nothing.I tightened my grip on the steering wheel slightly, exhaling through my nose as I leaned back just a fraction, forcing myself to focus on the road long enough to keep the truck steady.“This is a bad idea.” I muttered under my breath not because I believed it enough to turn around because saying it out loud felt like acknowledging the part of me that still understood consequences.My phone sat in the cup holder beside me, the screen dark, silent in a wha that felt louder than any notification could have been.I glanced at it briefl

Chapter 114 Ethan's Pov

The house came into view slower than I expected, not because I had reduced my speed but because something in me resisted the moment I would finally have to face whatever was waiting there and the longer I looked at it, the more something about it felt wrong in a way I could not immediately explain.Everything looked normal. The lights were on, steady and warm behind the windows, the front heard was undisturbed, no sign of struggled, no broken glass, nothing out of place in the way danger usually announce itself, and yet that normalcy settled into me with an unease that made it difficult to take comfort in it.I parked the truck quickly, cutting the engine as I stepped out, the quiet of the night wrapping around me in a way that made me feel amplified as I walked towards the front door.“Mia?” I called, my voice carrying across the space, steady but edge with something I could hit quite suppress.There was no response. I knocked, firm and deliberate, waiting a moment before knocking

Chapter 115 Ethan's Pov

“Mia!” My shouts grew louder, aggression folded in my veins as I banged my fist on front door.“Mia! I know you're in there. I know you can hear me. I just wanna talk. Please come out!”Silence greeted my loud cries. Silence and an eerie chill that ran down my back. It seemed as though every breath of life had suddenly vanished from inside the cabin.“Mia?” I paused, leaned closer, peering through the glass windows on the front door to see if I could find anything.My reflection stared me right back in the face, the corners of my lips faced down with sadness. “Mia!”Frustration mixed with a ting of anger mixed inside of me. A bolt shot through my inside, my fist met the door again, this time louder.“Mia! Come out now or so help me God, I'm gonna break this—“Hello, Ethan.” The sound of hinges opening and a familiar voice interrupted me.I paused mid sentence and turned to find Ben perched by the front door, holding the doorknob while his head was slightly poked outside of the house

Chapter 116 Mia's Pov

I woke up to the sound of ting ringing in my head. My vision blurred for a few seconds until I blinked again and found that I could see.“Ouch.” I winced as I struggled to stand up but found something pulling me down.A swift turn to the side and I heard the clanking of chains. Heavy chains. I was locked in here.Locked in a dark, wet smelling room. I scanned the room and found that there was no presence in there. “Ethan…” I whimpered. “Ethan, where are you…”Silence filled the room. A deafening silence that rang louder than the chill that was fixed in my spine.“Ethan…”The silence rang again, when another minister passed and I couldn't find Ethan or the other girl, I panicked.“Ethan! Where the heck are you!!!” I started to pull against the chains.It hit deep into my skin, tightening around my wrist so deeply that, I could feel my own skin ripping off me.The struggle grew louder, the pain worse, I struggled so much I was out of breath. My chest tightened, my eyes watered.I stopp

Chapter 117 Ethan's Pov

I was ready to do it.Bulldoze the doors, strut my way in, push Ben to the side and go find Mia.But Ben was quicker than I was. He snatched the door handle before I could and dived inside.“If you break down my door, I'm calling the cops on you.” he roared.Cops on me?He wouldn't dare.“The same cops that are looking for Mia? Call them! I'm sure they'll definitely come.” he yelled back.I bumped shoulders into the door, pain sizzled through every nerve. I don't have the time to recover, as fast as a lightening bolt, I jumped back on my feet and rushed to the door again.“Open the damn door, Ben! I want to see her. You better open this shit up or I'll break it.” I banged with my clenched fist on the door. With all the power that I had.With all my pent up frustration.With the way I felt about Mia.Open the freaking door!Silence filled the room inside when I stopped knocking. The air stilled. It was everything and everyone in there had completely gone silent.I banged a couple of t

Chapter 118 Mia's Pov

My last chance….“Make sure you don't ruin this or you might regret this for the rest of your life.”The way she said it, the eerie silence that followed, something felt wrong.Horribly wrong after those words.“You've got to be kidding, he wouldn't do that. He can't hurt me.”She scoffed. A little too hard. “I'm talking to you from the insides of a wall and you think this is a joke. You're the funny one here.”She wasn't done talking when I caught the sound of footsteps coming in my direction. “What's that?” I noticed it first. Her voice dulled and then they faded. She listened enough and then answered. “He's coming.”“Oh goodness.” I muttered. I could feel a breeze of air exhale through my lungs. I barely had enough time to adjust to the news of what Ben was capable of when the door opened wide.“Seems you're awake.” His first words to me before he greeted me. “Clean yourself up, you have a visitor.”A visitor?He walked to towards me, dragging a bat behind him, fear tightened it

Chapter 119 Mia's Pov

“I'm fine.”“You sure?”“Yes.” I said, firmly, forcing my voice as deep as it could go.“I don't believe you.”Ben pulled me deeper into his embrace. He glared at Ethan. “Whether you believe her or not, that's your business, she said she's fine and that's the end of it.”I felt his arm tighten around me, he was taking me inside, back to the living room and from there, I could tell he was headed to the dungeon. I couldn't afford to go back.No.“If you insist that she's fine, then let me speak to her.” Ethan wasn't giving up. Thank goodness.“Alone.” He emphasized. “Without you. Mia is more than capable of making her own words and I want to have a conversation with her, I'm sure the law allows that.”“But I don't.” He fully dragged me in, pushing me with a force so great, I tripped over and landed on my face... but inside. Ethan could only hear a thud if he listened well beyond the conversation.“Listen, you said you wanted to see her and I allowed you to see her but she's my woman no

Chapter 120 Ethan's Pov

I didn't leave immediately. Not even an hour later.Somehow, I managed to linger around his front porch, eagerly waiting for a sign that all I saw was a lie.That Mia was fine and the patches of red I saw on her, were my delusions. But that feeling never sunk in.As the minutes went by, my fear worsened, chills ran down my spine like they were lightning. My fingers ached, my shoulder numbed and I… I felt my heart palpitating like it was going to be ripped out of me soon enough.I dragged many deep breaths. “This can't be happening…” It couldn't be. Not when I had just found her.I grabbed the door to my truck, inside, I found my cellphone. I hadn't realized it was switched off, or that I kept it there. I was too distracted by Ben and Mia.When the screen brightened, I searched the call logs.Voice notes from Nora. Nothing special, she just wanted to know how I was and what was going on. I called her immediately.“Hey…” her voice sounded edgey. “What's up. I've been trying to call yo
