Into Thin Air Obsession
I met Caleb and Lacy when Noah introduced me to him at a party at his house one weekend. He stared at me with his deep dark brown eyes the whole time we were at the party. I know Noah and Caleb are friends and that they work together, but there was something about him that I couldn't quite put my finger on. When I went to sleep last night I couldn't help but dream of Caleb with his dark eyes and long dark hair. I don't know what's wrong with me. I've never been so obsessed with a man. Even while I was dating Noah I was never this obsessed with him to where I memorized every single detail of him let alone dreamed of him at night. In my dream, I was back at the party where Caleb was staring me down when I got out of my chair when I started taking off my clothes as I walked over to him where I rode him as if I was on a pogo stick. I woke up the next morning literally disappointed.Noah and I seem to spend every weekend at Caleb and Lacy's house. Lacy and I are only a year apart in age,
Into Thin Air Disappearance
Noah left for work the next morning while I slowly got up and started my day. As I stretch I reach over and grab my phone from my bedside table then head for the shower. I have to have music when I’m in the shower. When I start drying off my phone rings. “Hello,” I say after pushing the speaker button so I can talk while I get dressed. “Hey, beautiful, are you busy today,” A familiar voice asks. Automatically I recognize the voice as Caleb’s, but it wasn’t his number he called from. “No, I’m free all day what do you need,”“I was going to get Lacy a necklace for Valentine’s Day but I’m not good with jewelry can you help me,”“Yeah, sure I don’t have anything planned for today,” “Great! Thank you I’ll be over to pick you up in a few,”An hour later, Caleb pulls up in his white Ford pickup truck. When I climb inside I get a bad feeling that I shouldn’t be going with him but I just brush it off. “Thanks again for coming with me. I have no clue what Lacy would like,” He admits as he shif
Into Thin Air Trapped
As promised Caleb showed back up the next day. “Did you miss me,” He said as he strutted through the door? “How could I miss someone as awful as you,” I vented hotly. He continued as if he hadn’t heard a word I had said. “Anyway, my dear, I can’t stay long I have to help your family search for you,” Caleb chuckled. “They’re searching for me? That means they will find me and you will be arrested for kidnapping me,” I said, choking back tears. “Oh no my dear, they will not find you. You see, you are in another state and in a remote part of a forest. So you see no one is coming to rescue you, so just accept your fate,”“Never! Someone will find me,” I yell at him as he heads for the door. I still refuse to cry in front of him. I can’t let him know that he is slowly breaking me down slowly.Caleb is right on one hand though nobody will find me all the way out here so I need to figure out how to get myself out of here. I start looking all around me to see if there is anything I can use to
Into Thin Air Questions
Noah’s friends didn’t believe that he just up and left without telling anyone nor did his family. They all met up at our old house in Herber Springs so they can figure out if Noah actually moved if not what to do next. His parents had a key so they entered the house first and looked around. They noticed that all of his personal items plus all of mine were still in the house. Caleb’s parents somberly stepped out onto the porch. ``Noah didn’t move all of the things he would have taken are still in there. We need to call the police and get them over here,” Ms. Hastings told us as her husband is already on the phone with the police. “They’re on the way over,” Mr. Hastings advised us.When the police finally show up one of the officers stays outside and questions all our friends while the other officer goes inside the house with Noah’s parents. One of Noah’s friends tells the officer that the last time he had heard from Noah was the day before he had disappeared and told the Officer that
Into Thin Air Safety
I make sure Caleb is gone when I wake up the next morning before making a call to the Herber Springs police department to let them know where Noah’s body was. Not only that, but I also told them who I was and where Caleb was holding me hostage. I had realized that night I couldn’t save my baby, but I could save myself. Caleb was the reason I had lost my child, not mine. I had tried to get him to take me to see a doctor multiple times and he wouldn’t. “Okay Hanna I need to know where you are at,” Detective Lancaster asked me. “I believe I’m in the next town over I’m just not sure what the address is,” “It’s okay, we can trace this phone number and figure out where you are but you need to stay on the phone until we get the location. Can you do that?”“Yes,”I hear him telling the other officers what he needed them to do. “I promise Hanna we will find you and get you out of there,” He promises me. Then he starts talking to me getting all the information about what happened to me and w
Into Thin Air No Freedom
I was in the hospital for almost two weeks until Dr. Drevits said that the infection was gone and I was cleared to go home. Only I didn’t have a home and my drug-running husband who had let his brother kidnap me was still running free. So guess where I got to stay? Yep, a so-called safe house. All it was was a room at a hotel granted it was a suite in a fancy-ish hotel. I of course got the bedroom, but the officers guarding me had to fight over who got the cot or the couch. They also had an officer posing as a front desk clerk so they could watch who came in and left. The only bad thing about this place is that I wasn’t allowed to leave, of course, or order room service. I’m dying for a juicy cheeseburger. I have to ask them like a little kid if I can have this nice juicy cheeseburger. But on to other things I’m still having nightmares. Dr. Drevits thinks I should see a psychiatrist. He believes that will help me with the nightmares. Detective Lancaster thinks that they are getting c
Into Thin Air They found Me
Movie night with some friends from my Law class. We are off to watch the new Conjuring movies. I have always loved scary movies Noah never did so I could only watch them when he was gone. My security detail is sitting a couple of rows behind us and looks like they are on a date. “I have seen all of the Conjuring movies. The creepiest character for me is the nun. What is yours,” I asked my friends Melanie and Allie. “Oh my god definitely the nun,” Melanie whispers as the movie is about to start. Allie leans over and whispers “Definitely the nun hands down,” We went from screaming to laughing as one of us jumps at a suspenseful part. After the movie ended, we decided to go next door to Ollie's bar for a drink and do our own review of the movie about what parts we liked, which parts were stupid, and which parts scared us the most then post them on our mutual Twitter page. My two friends do know about me being in witness protection after the FBI did a vigorous background search on them a
Into Thin Air Friends
“So where are we exactly, I mean this isn’t a normal safe house,” I asked Liam the next morning as I was making breakfast like I always do in the morning. “I figured that Allie would have told you last night, you are at my parent’s house,” He confessed after a deep breath. I raised my eyebrows “No we’re not, you wouldn’t take me to the house that you were raised in,” I said incredulously. “Well I hate to prove you wrong yet again but yes it is,” He admitted pointing to a picture sitting on the mantle. I hand him the spatula that I had in my hand as I walk over to the picture. There standing in front of this fireplace were two proud parents with their young college graduate holding his diploma standing in between them. “Yea I took that picture I tried to get my brother to smile but all he did was a smirk,” Allie laughed as she came out of her bedroom. “I think he was a little hungover from partying the night before,”“Hey no I wasn’t I just felt a little tired standing there after mom

It turns out when you help the government take down a big time drug cartel they pay you handsomely even though I had only done it to stay alive and to get my life back.

I changed my name permanently to Aria Fitzgerald, Hanna Reza died that day when Caleb abducted her many moons ago. I am in my last semester of Law school. Dennis Blackman told me that when I graduate I could come work with him, he has even been letting me help him in his law firm. Which has taken off like a firestorm since he helped send the Reza’s to federal prison. My sweet Liam has taken some much needed time off from the FBI to rest and to build my dream house on the property that our family was murdered on. I know it sounds weird and creepy but to each their own. The people who had actually owned it weren't going to rebuild the house and just let the land just sit. They pretty much said it was
Into Thin Air Court
June third. The first day of the trial for Noah and Caleb. My ex-husband and his brother who abducted me. This day came too fast and too slow for me. I’m scared and grateful this whirlwind of a mess is finally over. I hope so. Will it ever really be over? Maybe, maybe not. I guess it just depends on how this trial goes. My emotions are all over the place this morning as I get dressed for the trial of the century. That’s what they are calling it on the news anyway. One minute I’ll be crying then the next minute I’m calm and collected, and another minute I feel like I’m going to pass out.Liam and Cap stopped by last night to give us an update on everything that had happened since we escaped into the tunnel.

The few men they had brought with them were taken do
Into Thin Air I'll Never Be Free
It turns out that the other day we were followed back here but not by a vehicle but by a drone. When we thought that we had lost them before that first turn to go down the dirt road they had just stopped and used a drone to follow us. How could I have been so stupid to think that one day I’ll be free to live a normal life? I bet you're wondering how we found all this out, well Cap got up early this morning, as usual, he went out to the front porch to drink his morning coffee and found a drone sitting on a table with a picture of our house taped to it. He brought it in and plopped it in front of Liam. “They found us, brother, they might not have followed you by vehicle but they followed you,” Cap growled. “We are going to have to call in reinforcements. With the court date coming up they seem to be out for blood,” He looked straight at me when he said that. “What if I don’t testify do you think they would leave me alone then,” I trembled.Liam walks over to me putting his arms around m
Into Thin Air New Day
“Come on I want to go to town,” I hear Allie pleading with her brother Liam, an FBI Agent that was sent to protect me until they put Noah, my asshole of an ex-husband, along with his sleazy brother Caleb in prison for abducting me and drug smuggling. Noah and Caleb are the sons of the head of the Reza drug cartel. Who are now after me and my two friends Allie and Melanie. “What do you need to go to town for,” Liam asked. “Fine if you must know I thought we could get some flowers to plant in front of the house and maybe some stuff to plant a garden, since Aria, Melanie and I are stuck here we should be able to plant some flowers and stuff,” She said. I make my way down the stairs when I catch Liam giving into his little sister.”Your right we will go later after Cap and I get these cameras up alright,” Allie squeals so loud it makes my head throb. Rubbing my temples I make my way to the coffee pot, “Hello old friend,” I say after taking a sip. “Did you say something,” Liam asked. “Just
Into Thin Air Home
Finally, after spending hours on the road, I’m back in my favorite place in the world Phoenix, Arizona with its beautiful scenery and culture plus the temperatures stay pleasantly warm throughout the year. The weather there is nothing like living in Arkansas. Liam pulled some strings with the University for me to do make-up classes so my grades wouldn’t drop. I’m not allowed to work for a while until the FBI knows that I’m safe and the cartel isn’t looking for me. Until then my classes will be done once again online.Allie and Melanie looked like they had just woken up when Liam and I had just walked into the house. “Oh thank god you're both safe,” They said, running up to give us hugs. “Aria I can’t thank you enough for what you did for me, even though it was completely stupid,” Melanie said hugging me tighter. “If there is anything I can do to repay you just let me know,” “You’re welcome, but Melanie you don’t need to repay me for saving you, you wouldn’t have been taken if it hadn
Into Thin Air Rescued
I don’t know how long I was out for but when I started coming around. I heard screaming men yelling just a bunch of commotion coming from the hallway. I go throw open the curtains to see a bunch of red and blue lights in front of the house. Some of the police cars were parked in the grass, in the driveway. They looked as if they surrounded us. “Yes, I’m saved,” I screamed out loud. “Not yet you’re not,” Noah advised me as he came through the door. He grabbed me by my arm and started dragging me out of the room. As he was dragging me through the house I saw people with FBI vests on along with Police vests. I started yelling for help over and over again. I thought I had seen Liam as Noah was trying to drag me out the back door. “Liam! Liam!,” I yelled until he finally noticed me the instant Noah had gotten me out the door. Liam gave chase out the back door shouting. “Noah stop, let her go,” When we get to a black car Noah stops and spins me around in front of him with a gun to my head.
Into Thin Air Bad Decisions

I'm going to purposely drop a note for him with a time to meet me before I have my first class. It’s not the smartest decision I’ve made but I need to get Melanie back from him. I’ll exchange myself for her release if I have to. I’m praying that Liam will figure out what I have done after Melanie and I are safe from Noah and the cartel.After my shift at the Mean Bean coffee shop, I start walking to the University when someone grabs my arm. Noah. He had been watching when I purposely dropped the note for him. “So you said you wanted to talk, but first where’s your boyfriend at,” He said. As he scans the area. “I don’t know where he is, but what I want to talk about is getting Melanie back,”“I’m sorry who are you talking about,”“My friend Melanie, the one your people took on her way to work one day,” I hissed.“Oh that
Into Thin Air Best Laid Plans
If nobody ever told you that if you want to keep the guy you're messing around with a secret from your friends, never give them a key to your house.Allie and Melanie showed up around seven this morning wanting to know all that had happened after we left the restaurant. They decided to wake me up by storming into my room and jumping on me in bed. When they opened my bedroom door ready to pounce they saw Liam and me snuggled up together. “Oh my god,” Allie freaked out. “Did you guys actually hook up last night,” I sat up in bed, pulling the blanket up to my neck? “Allie let me explain please,” I said, trying to find the right words to explain what happened. “Don’t get me wrong, I’m tickled,” Allie interrupted. “It’s just is this the actual reason you didn’t want us to come over last night,”“No sis, I promise this wasn’t planned at all, Noah was sitting outside the house in a white Tahoe and I didn’t want him to catch you two coming into the house,” Liam chimed in sitting up in bed ma
Into Thin Air Bait
It takes me three cups of coffee for me to feel halfway human. When I can finally move my head side to side and back and forth without it feeling like it’s going to fall off my body I go and take a shower hoping that it will help me sober up some more.Thank goodness I don’t have to go back to school or work until tomorrow so I can just lounge around the house and relax plus start to feel better after my loving, crazy friends got me drunk just to pierce my ears. After my shower, I head to the kitchen not for my normal coffee but for a nice cup of herbal tea then head back up to my room and I slide back into my nice comfy bed where I plan to stay all day. Thanks to my new buddy Liam I don’t get that chance. “Come on, beauty queen, get up we have work to do,” He says, opening up the curtains letting the sunshine in as he tries to get me out of bed. I flipped him a double bird and pulled the covers over my head. Liam bends down, grabs my ankles, and pulls me out from under the covers. “
