We stayed with Landon throughout the night, the beeping of the machine was a constant reminder of where we were. The twins slept in the chairs across the room whilst I was in the chair next to Landon’s bed, my head laid next to him on the bed as I held his hand.

I’m laying in bed staring at the ceiling above me, the shadows dancing above me playing a haunted scene before my eyes, a gentle breeze sways through the room from the open window and I can hear the noise of each nocturnal animal around the estate, it’s like listening to a sorrow-filled symphony.
Time seems to blend into a continuous stream without a window to tell me whether its day or night I have absolutely no idea what time or even day it is or how long I’ve been down here, each day the same guy brings me a tray of food but I don’t see anyone else. I try and connect with Jewels but I’m met with silence every time, I'm sure they're poisoning my food or water with something but I have no option but to eat what they give or starve to death and that is not something I’m willing to do, I need to get back to my twins. I picture their faces every dip and crease of their features their lips, Molton eyes and high cheekbones, I miss them so much, I rub my chest trying to rub away the ache that’s settled there since I’ve been kidnapped and separated from them but nothing eases it. I know they must be feeling the same ache I am and it tears me apart to think of the pain that they must be feeling but I’m trying to figure a way out of here but there
Dragus’s POV I woke with a startle the space beside me empty and cold as I ran my hand over the sheets, Darian was still snoring softly on the other side of the bed, I couldn’t see Aria anywhere, the soft glow of the bathroom light seeping underneath the door had me thinking she was in there. I rose from the bed and padded my way over to the bathroom, I couldn’t hear anything coming from inside so I pushed the door open and glanced around, the room was empty, no sign of her. My heart started to quicken as I backed into the bedroom, turning and surveying the room around me, maybe she’d gone to get a drink or something? The French doors leading out to our balcony were open and a light breeze filtered into the bedroom as the curtains swayed, I strode over to the doors and stepped out into the warming air, there was a blanket on the chair in the corner and a chair was laying on its side but there was no sign of Aria. Panic started setting in and I ran
It's been three days since Aria was taken and each day my heart hurts more and more, my heart feels like it’s being torn from my chest, I've tried reaching her but I get nothing, nada, and it's becoming a war in my head, I want to snap, to fight, to tear the world apart until I find her, but I know it will do no good if I can not think clearly. Each minute I'm fighting my dragon for control, his need for his mate growing more and more as the time passes and he is becoming just as restless as me. I can see the same war playing out on Darian’s face, we're like a mirror image in this exact moment, eyes flashing, teeth bared on the knife-edge of the abyss that lies below, we need to find her and we need to find her now. Sitting in our father’s office waiting for the list of those men who knew about the new surveillance systems that we had installed, we have a rat among us and they helped Eli take Aria from us. Darian’s knee is bouncing up and down and with a hard look on
we trudge through the undergrowth over fallen trees, the crunch of our boots barely audible as we make our way towards the house that holds Aria. I look to my left to where Daarian is and I can see the clench of his jaw from 15ft away he's determined to get her back at all costs consequences be damned. He looks over to me and nods his head once before continuing on with the rest of the troops from our team, Dad and Hunter are ahead of us slightly taking the lead and directing soldiers to fan out around the house. We come up to the top of a hill and look down to where the house is nestled at the bottom of the valley, there is nothing around for miles as I take stock of the land. The crisp night air seeps into my lungs cooling the burning inferno inside me as I breathe in through my nose. We have a team with us the best of the best nothing else would have done not for this, not for Aria she deserves nothing less. I look around at the soldiers wit
We clung to the shadows like a second skin, crawling along the treeline surrounding the shack on every side so there was zero chance any of these pricks were making a run for it. Darian was by my side, his eyes glowing in the shadows as we crept closer to the rear of the building. There was nothing else around no outbuildings, cars or neighbours so we were pretty much sliding along under the radar without the chance of the guards being alerted by someone else. Dad was on the west side of the building with a handful of our own soldiers ready in the shadows and waiting for our signal to move in. Hunter was to the East with the best vantage of the front of the building keeping the two waiting guards in his sight. I looked to my right at my brother who’s eyes bore into me with such a force that if he could shoot lasers my head would have two additions to it. He nodded his head slightly letting me know he was ready to do whatever was needed to get aria
Aria’s POV This cell was starting to stink more and more each day or was it me that was stinking since I wasn’t able to shower or wash properly apart from the dingy bucket of WATER, they left in here every other day? I lay on the tiny cot staring at the ceiling of my prison my mind had often wondered too the twins and what they were doing if they were trying to find me or if they thought I’d run away from them again. A single tear rolled down my cheek at the thought of them not coming for me what if they had just given up? That thought alone caused my chest to ache right above me heart as I tried to rub the pain away. I knew it was completely an irrational notion as the mate bond still thrummed away between us but the thought still hurt whether it was true or not, and after spending god knows how long down here my mind was a complete mess! They had been drugging the foo
I collapse into the arms of my mates and sobbed into Darian’s chest, the heat from their bodies surrounded me at the same time their arms bounded around my shaking body. I clung to them while I balled my eyes out, my body shaking from the remaining adrenaline coursing through me and the fatigue from the fight and running through the woods had taken its toll on my body physically I was shaken but mental I was exhausted, exhausted from being away from my mates, exhausted from being starved, exhausted from thinking they wouldn’t come for me, I almost allowed myself to believe they wouldn’t but when the mate bond pulsed it reminded me to have faith in my mates and in their love for me. We stay huddled together on the damp muddy forest floor holding strong to each other as I took deep breaths to control my sobbing and inhaling their scents something that calmed me almost instantly, the love we had for one another pulsed around
