Alice's POV

As the exhaustion of the journey settled in, Liam and I stumbled into our home, barely able to keep our eyes open.

We were both jetlagged, desperately craving sleep. With a weary sigh, we collapsed onto the bed and drifted off into a deep slumber.

The next morning, I awoke to the persistent ringing of my phone. Groggy and disoriented, I fumbled for it, squinting at the bright screen. It was Silver, my trusted friend and confidante. I answered the call, my voice laced with sleepiness.

"Hey, Silver," I mumbled, rubbing my eyes to clear away the remnants of sleep. "What's going on?"

There was urgency in her voice as she relayed the distressing news. "Alice, Simone has been kidnapped. They took him last night. We don't know who's behind it, but we need your help."

My heart lurched in my chest, adrenaline coursing through my veins, banishing any remnants of sleepiness. Simone, my fiancé, had become a part of my life, and the thought of him in danger sent shivers down my spine.
