Chapter 232** Mason’s POV **The moment I’ve been longing for for weeks has finally come, and I can barely speak. I can’t tell my daughter everything I have been wanting to tell her. The words just won't come out. So, instead, I go into management mode. We don’t have the luxury of riding off into t
Chapter 233** Josie’s POV **I can’t think of my daughter living in this place for weeks, and the thought of other kids living here even longer is breaking my heart. Children need warmth and a clean living space. They need a safe place to sleep that is not a thin mat on a filthy floor underground.
Chapter 234** Josie’s POV **“Luke?” I ask again, even though I know he won’t hear me. Maybe he is just knocked out and unable to respond, but then why can’t I feel him at all? Usually, I can sense all of my bonds, even when they’re sleeping. I don’t even want to think of what else could have him

Chapter 237** Deacon’s POV **Harper is like a different kid from the one we lost a few weeks ago. She is so mature and just like her mother. The way she has taken the lead with her peers and is commanding the room has me envisioning her running the academy in the future.I’d brought Luke’s parents
Chapter 1 “Good Morning ladies!” The dorm senior, Jenna, shouts as she makes her way down the corridor of the dorms, banging on each door as she goes. I roll over with a groan and stretch to pick up my phone. I read the time and then rub my eyes before checking the time again because there’s no way
Chapter 2 For the next few hours, I watch the clock in the small room they have me locked in. I’d drank my small paper cup of water hours ago and I've counted every tiny crack I can find in the plastered walls at least ten times. Just when I'm at the point of driving myself completely insane by me

Chapter 231** Josie’s POV **Luke wakes us up in the best way possible. He’s found Harper, and she’ll be coming home soon. I can already feel the excitement bubbling inside me as I pace the kitchen, imagining the moment when I can finally wrap my arms around her. The thought that she is safe fills
Chapter 230** Luke’s POV **Once Harper’s initial shock of realising it’s me passes, a wide grin spreads over her face, and she steps towards me. A hand reaches out to grab her arm, stopping her.“What’s going on here? Do you know him?” The woman with the wild eyes that announced breakfast asks as
Chapter 229** Luke’s POV **I almost gag at the smell. These are awful living conditions and I hate that my daughter and the rest of these kids have been forced to live this way. It’s inhumane. They need daylight and clean facilities. “I don’t like it, they shouldn’t be here,” a gruff male voice s
