I got to witness the most memorable occasion firsthand. * * * Colleen had been dating a particularly unsavory fellow named Kirk halfway through Hope's senior year.

He was lying. “What time did you see this?” Shane asked. “I… I don’t know exactly,” Cole stammered. “Maybe ten, fifteen minutes ago?” “Fifteen minutes ago, we had already sealed the palace,” Derek countered. “All the guards were already at their posts. How did no one else see this man carrying an unconscious woman?” “It was chaos,” Cole said quickly. “Everyone was running around searching. He must have slipped through.”

They left the hospital just before dawn, exhausted beyond measure, Doyle stabilized and resting under heavy guard, Colleen's attacker in custody and already, according to Okafor's initial report, showing signs of willingness to cooperate under the right pressure. Vivienne sat in the back of Reyes's car, staring out at the city's pale, early morning light, a single name turning over and over in her exhausted mind. Blackwater Cove. Her phone buzzed softly in her lap, and she felt the now-familiar, cold jolt of recognition even before she read the message, Damian leaning in close beside her.

The police declare that more investigations are still in progress. Grandma Jo gasped so hard Teddy jumped onto her lap. "No," she breathed, shaking her head. "No, this cannot happen. This cannot be my grandchildren." She went white. She leaned forward, her eyes on the screen as if she stared hard enough, she would know that it was a mistake. On the television screen, Siena's face flashed—a shiny photo from some night out, her smile wide, her dress sparkling. And then Leonard's face appeared, cold and shiny, the business-type.

Liam corrected before ending the call. Anna stared at her phone for a few seconds, then smiled softly. She opened the box—it was her favorite meal. Around her, the staff continued whispering in admiration of Liam. Anna sat down in the staff room, eating slowly. For the first time that morning, she wasn’t rushing. Far above, in the security control room, an officer was pulling up archived CCTV footage—under Kenzo’s direct orders. “Sir, I’ve sent you the CCTV footage,” Kenzo said over the phone to Liam. “As for the number that sent the photo, it was Miss Agnes. We’ve also apprehended the man who photographed Mrs. Anna,” he reported. “Handle it,” Liam ordered tersely—more than enough for Kenzo

About an hour ago, we received a report of a strange scent coming from one of your rental dens. Upon inspection, we discovered a female corpse—based on the ID, the deceased is your former mate, Luna Kate. She’s been dead for three days. Neighbors reported she had been living there with a six-year-old pup, who is currently missing. If you know anything about the pup’s whereabouts, please contact us immediately. We also ask that you come in as soon as possible to give a formal statement.”
