Where the fuck is she? I'd been home for almost an hour already. Which means she had more than enough time to get home and shower and be waiting for me to pick her up.

All my calls had gone to voicemail and she wasn't returning them. My gut knew that something wasn't right, but I refused to let my mind go there.

I admit that I'd been feeling that something wasn't right. I put it off as this damn secret she's been keeping, but now...

I was about to head out the door when the doorbell rang. I pulled it open, ready to blast her for driving here alone this time of night, but my words died in my throat.

"Jared, what happened?" The look on his face, plus the way he just looked at me as if he couldn't form the words, and I knew.

I wasn't aware of falling until dad caught me. "Where is she, what happened to her? Tell me." I knew she wasn't dead, I would've known if she were dead.

I should've known, all day I kept feeling that something was wrong. Why hadn't I just insisted she ride with

    The next morning, I was still up sitting in my window looking out at the cottage where we'd spent so many happy hours. Mom and dad had come home a few hours ago after the others had already left. There was a press conference planned for today and the news was already running the story. I took a quick shower and headed downstairs. It was Saturday, no school and anything else that I might've had on the agenda, was squashed for now.The bell started ringing before I could even reach the kitchen. "Hey bro." It was Shane and his girl Tammy, followed five minutes later by Jared and the ever-fussing Belle.If this shit wasn't happening, those two would have me in stitches just from the looks on their faces; but I was pretty sure that I was never gonna laugh again unless I found her."Okay bro, I know you've got a plan so let's hear it." The bell rang again and pretty soon almost everyone from the night before was back, it wasn't long before they were all here with a few extras.Mom and

    Both of our families beat me to the hospital, not to mention the cops. Everyone was talking at once. But I ignored all of them as I made my way through the emergency room. Looking for a bed or a stretcher or just anything to lay her on. She hadn't awakened yet and her breathing seemed even shallower than when I'd found her. A doctor and his team soon came running and she was snatched from my arms.I had to give the cops an account of what happened and knew from their looks of suspicion that they found the story preposterous at best.I can't say that I blame them. The damn dog had done what none of us could. I wasn't too worried about their suspicions. If there's one thing I was sure of it was that everybody knew my whereabouts that night.When they were through with their questions and her parents had given me their thanks, I was left alone with my thoughts. I asked dad to do me a favor, which he was only happy to. And then I went back to pacing back and forth, as our friends tric

    "Faster, harder, that's it." I held my legs open wide as they flopped around in the air. We'd been at it for hours now, when usually, I only tolerate him to get what I want out of him.But knowing that things are about to change for me has made me so hot I might have to call up another one of my lovers when this one is done.I had a mediocre orgasm that time and figured he had run his course, still, two out of three ain't bad."You may go now, you'd better leave out the back entrance, I don't think now's the time for anyone to learn of our little friendship now do you?"He gave me that sad puppy dog look that I knew so well by now. He's such a waste. His family has good money, but his whining and low self-esteem was not at all attractive; my acting skills only go so far.When he was finally gone, after I allowed him to slobber all over my tit, I took a nice long bath and got dressed and ready for my next stellar performance.***I wasn't too surprised when Jace turned down my of

    I felt tears run down my face. How could he, this, more than anything, showed me that he really didn't care anymore. I'd been right in the middle of telling him about my friend going missing and how scary it was.He'd made all the appropriate noises and had even seemed genuinely interested, until the phone rang.I knew he was lying to mom, knew he was heading to see that tramp. That's why I snuck out of the house that night and followed him.I didn't know what exactly I was going to do, but I couldn't just stand by any longer.I waited outside that hotel for what seemed like hours. I had lied to mom while he was upstairs and told her I had a headache and was going to bed so that she wouldn't disturb me.I'd already been over to Jace's place and saw everything that he was doing to find Sian so I couldn't use that as an excuse for leaving the house again.Sian; I had no real theories as to what might've happened there and my hope was that she showed up soon. I felt like life was co

    School has been almost surreal without Sian here. We'd all spent the weekend since Saturday when she'd been found, at the hospital.My parents have been very understanding and had even made it to the hospital, not so much to see Sian, since visitation was limited, but to show their support for me, and her family as well. Aren't they the coolest?The three of us, Tammy, Cassandra, and I were a little lost, and it was strange to realize that she'd become the center of our little family.It hurt to think about what had happened to her, what she must've felt while being attacked.I kept wracking my brain to figure out how it could've happened, how she could've ended up in that alley and nothing was making any sense.Jared was pissed but trying hard not to show it. The guys, minus Jace still hung with us at lunch that Monday afternoon, but the mood was somber without our king and queen.I wanted to reach out to Jared, but didn't know how. None of my quips or funny anecdotes were going

    For two days she slept and I kept vigil. I left it up to our dads to keep on top of the investigation that was now in full swing.Her mom and mine were in and out for those two days, as well as a limited number of our friends, namely her girls and my boys.I hadn't shared my thoughts with anyone else but Jared so far though, but I was pretty sure dad knew I was up to something, because he kept giving me looks, and I'm sure he told his team to keep an eye on me.He needn't have worried though, because I had no intentions on leaving her side until this was all over.I had time enough to plan, to try to set my trap while she was laid up in that bed not moving. So far nothing was adding up. Everyone claimed that Mandy had been on that bus and I couldn't for the life of me place her in that alley, but neither could I shake the certainty that she was the cause of all this.The way the investigation was going, they would have us believe that this was just a random act of violence, but

    First of all my parents hated her. I know some people might brush that off, but for me that was huge.Had I really been in love with her, I would've tried to win them around I'm sure, but I wasn't that interested.I even had a few rough moments when I thought I was being unfair to her, but then that letter fell into my hands and I was forced to make a move. One that was long overdue.After I'd seen her in action with my own two eyes, it got me started wondering who else knew about her little games?Obviously the letter writer did, and I had yet to learn who that person was, but who else?I'd called things off right away after following her one night and seeing her wrapped around Carter Stern, Cassandra's dad.I knew the family well; her mother had been one of mom's friends before some tragedy in the family had sent her into hiding. Well not exactly, but she hadn't been around for a while.I hadn't been interested enough to do anything, people have affairs all the time it's damn

    "Tam, what're you doing here? We didn't have a session this evening did we?" He looked confused as he opened the door for me to come in."No uh..." I knew I was going to flake out, I just knew it. I looked down at the floor in sudden embarrassment, but he turned my face back to his.His finger under my chin was so touching, so intimate, that it almost had me blurting out my reason for being there."What is it hon, did something else happen?" He was pulling me into the house as he spoke. I looked around in a panic for his mom, who I had totally overlooked in my rushed plan.We reached his room and I took a deep breath. If I was going to go through with this, then now was the time.But first I had to fortify myself. I looked around his room stalling for time. He was like every typical teenage boy into sports.The walls weren't lined with posters, but instead there were trophies and awards, as well as a few plaques that on closer inspection were all anecdotes and old proverbs.

    They looked around the room at each other until Logan nodded his head. I guess that was the go ahead because Mancini took point again."What we're about to share with you doesn't leave this room. We've come together along with some other friends that you didn't get to meet this time, to form a kind of group if you will.""Each of us serves a purpose in this group. It's also top secret, which you should understand." He looked at Track and I moved to stand in front of him. "It's okay Jace, he knows.""I'm not working for the government, no disrespect." I looked at the SEALs. The men in the room started to smile. I wasn't sure what the fuck they were, but it wasn't hard to tell that they were something. What with the compound that was more secure that the Pentagon."That's not who we are. What we propose, if we all agree is that you boys become part of our elite group. We'll fill you in on all the pertinent details a little later once you get on board. If not we can stop this lit

    I just held her and let her get it out, knowing that she'd be right as rain in no time. "Come on baby, let's get you dried and dressed." I turned off the water and lifted her to take her out of the shower."Jace, do you ever regret marrying me?" I want to answer this shit for the one hundredth time. What is it with women? The guys were all complaining about the same thing, except for Alex who was always smiling these days, the fuck."Sian, just like I told you yesterday and the day before that, even if I live to be a hundred, I won't ever regret the best decision I ever made.""But we're so young." I rolled my eyes and dried her feet that she couldn't hardly see anymore. "Does that mean that you regret it because you're younger than I am?"That one always stumps her but she still asks the same damn question over and over. So I knew what was coming next. "But it's not the same for men.""That's not sexist or anything. I should start worrying as often as you ask me that. Maybe

    Not scared like a punk, more like amazed at the shit these fucks can get up to. So when he so casually mentioned something that he should have no knowledge of, I got the sense there was much more left unsaid. I'm sure a man of his caliber wasn't just wasting his time on some kid that he didn't even know."I sense a catch.""No catch, I just think you're wasted on those fucknuts is all. Anytime you're ready give me a ring." He'd rang off after that but there was no mistaking the smile in his voice. I'm pretty sure he knew that I was going to look into him.And that was my reason for being hesitant about taking Jace with me. I'd got a glimpse of where those SEALs live and I have the feeling that shit would only give Jace ideas. He was already making noise about building a place like the one on the island where we all could live. The kid's a damn hippie at heart.***JACE***"Track wants us to go to Georgia to meet his sister.

    I didn't feel shit when I put pressure on his neck. Everything was happening so fast. Sian was screaming, finally giving into the fear and Track was trying to talk me down."I told you not to touch her you fuck. Did you forget?" I tightened my arm around his neck, adding just the right amount of pressure and barely restrained myself from doing more "I'm going to break your fucking neck.""Jace no, let him go, he's not worth it." I ignored Track and twisted my arm quick, snapping Stanley's neck. "Call the cops.""Fuck Jace! What the fuck did I say?""Call the cops.""No, let me think let me clean this up. Shane, Alex bar the door make sure no one gets by..." I hadn't even heard the others rush in behind me. But turned to see them now with horror in their eyes. "He's not dead Track his neck's just broken. Call the cops." I dropped Stanley on the floor just as the men who were supposed to be watching the school came through the door."What took you guys so long?""He didn

    For now, it was fine. For the next nine months I knew she was going to keep me on my toes. We had an appointment with the best Obstetrician of course, who'd been vetted to within an inch of her life before I agreed.I was trying to make it so that she only had to worry about school and giving birth, other than that I was there to pick up the slack. I had the fridge in our suite stocked with all the things she's been asking for lately and hoping for smooth sailing.I was getting used to waking up with her in the morning to hold her hair while she threw up. Then her horny ass would need a fix on the bathroom floor after a quick nap.Other than that, there was no sign that her tiny ass was even pregnant. Of course she's decided that she can get away with shit now, because I can't fix her ass, but I have other ways of keeping her ass in line.That Monday as soon as we'd reached the school yard the whispers started. It wasn't long before we heard the whole story of Mandy being dropp

    Mom came down with a tray of something in her hands instead of letting one of the servants do it."Hey mom, how come you're doing this yourself?""I don't know. We didn't go to the shelter this year because we've invited everyone, so I guess I'm feeling a little bit guilty.""Didn't you donate all the food this year? I'm sure they don't mind us missing one year mom, we'll go for Xmas, and make everyone that's here today come with us.""Sounds good son. By the way, I'm going to let you off the hook for telling your dad before you told me.""Shit, mom...""It's okay, he explained. By the way her parents know so you two don't have to keep putting it off any longer.""How?""Veronica is a mother son. We both figured something was going on that day in the hospital.""Well, that's all good and well but Sian has decided she's never telling her dad. She doesn't want him to know she's having sex."Mom thought that shit was hilarious but the rest of my crew, except for Track,

    With Mandy behind bars, all I needed was to find Stanley to tie her into the attack on Sian. I need that to put her away for the rest of her life.I'd been leaving clues and making anonymous phone calls to the cops for a while. Once I'd contacted the men she'd been extorting and told them the truth about her age, some of them were more than happy to come forward. The only ones that tried to hold out were the married ones. Some of them I let slide, like Cassie's dad. But the others I put the squeeze on.That's why I'd needed her phone and the stuff that she left behind when she got kicked out of her house. My team had already confiscated it all. That, along with the computer stick Liz had mailed me, were locked away in my safe. Everything except the phone which had been mailed to the cops. I was still protecting Carter, but I had to do it for Cassie's sake.The ones that did have sex with her when she was underage, their names had been handed over to the cops. There were going

    I drove down the driveway slowly with the lights off. There was one light on in the house and I wasn't surprised that it was in Sian's room. I got out of the truck and looked around at the dark night.It would be so easy... But I couldn't do anything here, not where my girl's family slept. Instead I walked around back. How did she get in anyway? And how do I get in without alerting her to the fact that I was here. I wasn't left wondering long.The alarm hadn't been set because of the workers going back and forth, which was an oversight. No one expects to be robbed in this neighborhood, but still. I knew it wasn't on since the night I'd come back here for her medicine, but hadn't thought much of it. Missed that one.I walked up the stairs, being as quiet as I could and stepped into Sian's bedroom door. Mandy was sitting on the bed, the new bed that replaced the one that had been burned in the explosion."What are you doing here?" It was obvious what she was doing. The door to Si

    I'd been so excited I'd forgotten to score some drugs. I hadn't seen a male anywhere in that stupid place anyway, that might've been willing to help me, so it was most likely a bust. I sat in the car and formulated my next move in my head. How can I get close enough to do what I have to do? There was no way to get onto the Saunders' property without being noticed.Unless...No they've had the same domestic staff for a while, they probably know each one on sight. How can I get there? I don't have anything suitable, anything that would disguise me until I got close enough. Close enough to destroy her, that bitch.I drove around for a while still no closer to a solution. Thanksgiving was in two days. Another thought hit me. It was something I'd learned about Jace and his family even before we dated. When he still used to act like I didn't exist. When I used to read anything I could get my hands on about the ultra-wealthy family. Yes, that would be perfect. I'd forgotten all abou
