...Asher POV...

By the time I finished my shower, Sienna had already messaged me with all the details of my trip. Well, to be frank, the details I needed to know. I still had no idea where she was located, which made me worry about her. It only just dawned on me that I hadn't checked in with her to see how she was doing for a while now. Especially since she had gone to visit her family in England. I don't know why I haven't until now.

But it was clear from what she sent me that she was worried about someone finding her. I hated that I hadn't bothered to check in at least once until now to see how she was coping. I should've talked to Damian and offered to go with her to England.

I didn't at the time because Sienna seemed happy. But was it all a farce? I was beginning to suspect that something was wrong. My original reason for wanting to visit her quickly diminished; instead of wanting to see her to get answers, I needed to see her to make sure she was ok. She always acts tough and st

    ...Sienna POV...Asher explained to me what happened that caused him to take a sudden trip. I wasn't upset that he wasn't working on interrogating Elanora. I knew she was a tough case and may never end up breaking. This is why I had already begun looking for alternate ways to try and track down Silvio. I was caught off guard when Ash made the connection to me being the Huntress. I was worried that someone else might be able to figure it out. But Ash explained that my identity was safe. If anything, having Ash on my side may prove to be beneficial. As he would be able to help protect my identity by providing an alibi. The more I thought about it, the more sense it made, which is when I came to a sudden realization.I didn't want his help. Rather, I needed his help. I just hoped that he would agree to my sudden idea. I left my bedroom and made my way toward the sitting room where I knew Ash would be. He had been here a few days already, though he was meant to return tomorrow. But I had

    Over the next few months, Ash and I became a well-oiled machine. Our team was absolutely perfect. It didn't take long for us to find our stride. Ash stayed in communication with Jace and informed me of any progress or rather, the lack of progress made in the interrogation with Elanora. I resumed my role as the Huntress as Ash would help me uncover potential targets. With his access, we were able to find people that were associated with Cole in one way or another. Many of which we found didn't know a thing about who he was or who he really was. They were mostly innocent people that happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.However, unbeknownst to Hunter, we managed to uncover some resources that Silvio counted on to help keep him hidden. In an attempt to see how Hunter was doing, I used the hack that Kevin had set up to spy on Hunter, which is when I uncovered Hunter's plans. While it didn't seem as though he was doing anything to find Silvio, he was actually spending his

  • The Huntress   67. Dead End

    ...Hunter POV...I felt like pulling out my hair. For what seemed like the twentieth time now, the Huntress, whoever she was, had managed to foil my plans. I didn't know who this Huntress was, but she was driving me insane. No matter what I did, she always seemed to be one step ahead of me.Earlier on, I sent my men out to capture another lead. We had been tailing him for a week and found an opportunity to grab him discreetly. He was a minister of the government and was known for taking handouts. Making him an easy target for Silvio. Cole managed to syphon all of Kevin's money before he escaped, making him a millionaire. We already tried tracing the money, but he was good. He'd been planning this for years. Probably even before Cole inserted himself into Kevin's life. Tracing the money never led to anything. Rather, it only ever led to more questions. Chasing Silvio was like trying to kill the Hydra. Each time we tried to cut off the monster's head, it only grew several more. It was

    ...Sienna POV...I attempted to open my eyes, but my vision was blurred, making everything appear fuzzy. My head was pounding as if I had slammed my head against concrete. I took a deep breath and hissed as I attempted to move my head upwards."Take it slow." A familiar voice comments."Where am I?" I question, not quite sure what happened."You don't remember?" The voice asks, making me shift my head up slightly to find where the voice is coming from. Which is when I noticed I couldn't move my arms. Instantly, I begin to panic, wondering why I can't move.My eyes shoot open as I take a glance around the room. I recognize my bedroom and realize that I'm tied to a chair."What's going on?" I ask whoever is in the room with me.Ignoring the pain in my neck, I raise my head to look around my room, which is when my gaze lands on the last person I ever suspected. Asher."Untie me!" I shout, growing increasingly frustrated."I'm sorry. But I can't. At least not yet." He comments, making me

    ...Asher POV...I don't know how long we sat there until I felt her go weak in my arms. I didn't understand what had happened. What caused this sudden breakdown? I know she hasn't been sleeping or eating properly, but I never thought it was that severe. I know we were both growing frustrated by the lack of dead ends we were receiving. We were both far more invested in this than we should be. And it was clear all of this had taken a far bigger toll on her than any of us could've predicted.I should've realized something like this would happen. She hasn't had a chance to digest any of it. None of us really know what she's had to deal with. While she told us that she was tortured, no one can truly know what she went through other than herself and Silvio. While Kevin also had a hand in all of this, as far as I was aware, Kevin never attacked her himself. Rather he got Silvio and Hunter to do his work for him. It's been nothing but painful experience after painful experience. Even the str

    ...Sienna POV...When I woke up, it felt like someone had slammed my head against the concrete floor repetitively. My head was pounding, and my vision was rather blurred. I was confused and disoriented. I couldn't remember what happened, which was causing my head to hurt the more I forced myself to recall the events. I closed my eyes, unable to keep them open for long periods, as the light only contributed to my headache.I could hear the faint sounds of someone talking but couldn't figure out who it was or who they were talking to. It was almost as though they were talking to themselves, as the conversation seemed to be one-sided. I could only make out one person talking. Did that mean that whoever was here was clinically insane, as they were having a full-blown conversation with themselves? Or was there more than one person here? Or were they on the phone?I strained my hearing to be able to detect whose voice I could hear, but nothing seemed to help. Rather, just the attempt made t

    "How are you feeling?" He asks, surprising me. I narrow my eyes at him, unsure as to why he was asking me that."You're the one that's injured. I should be the one asking you." I state, removing my hand from his head and then taking the seat across from him."You and I both know that it's nothing serious. I've had far worse." Asher replies with a small smirk. I eye him curiously. It was clear that something had happened that he was refusing to tell me. And I could tell that I was the cause of all of this. But I didn't understand what happened. Ash was a good friend of mine. I would never hurt him, no matter how much he angered me. So what happened that made me do this to him?"What happened?" I ask, turning my gaze from the floor to look up at him. Ash looks into my eyes as if searching for something. He remains silent, unsure as to what to say."I'm sorry. I don't know why I hurt you. But I'm sorry." I state, standing up as I turn to walk to my room. However, Ash quickly reaches out

    ...Asher POV...I was happy to see that Sienna had returned to normal. She seemed a bit torn and upset with herself. But was otherwise fine. I was sure she would return to her normal self after more rest and something to eat. She's been running full force for far too long. We've been in this war with Silvio for over a year. Sienna has been put through more than anyone else. Not only was she tortured mentally and physically, but she was in a constant state of survival. Forcing her mind to do whatever it needed to help whoever she could. She was forced to withstand high degrees of physical torture so that no harm would come to Tomás or Hunter. Then when that wasn't enough, Silvio took things up a notch by capturing me. Using me against Sienna in his quest to bring down Hunter. When none of that worked, he used her family. If anything, I'm surprised Sienna hadn't suffered a mental break long before now. She's been pushed harder than anyone else I know. Even warriors in battle go throug

    Once the plane landed, the men on the plane escorted us outside to some waiting all-terrain vehicles that were well-equipped to handle the rough and snowy climate. My heart practically stopped as we stepped out of the plane. The cold temperature was no joke. It was in the mild twenties when we left LA. From the harsh breeze hitting my skin, I would have to guess that it was closer to negative twenty here. With the wind chill, it easily felt as though it was close to negative forty out. This meant there was no chance of survival if we tried to escape. I didn't waste any time getting myself and Sienna into the enclosed vehicles. It was far too cold outside, and we weren't dressed for the harsh climate. Sienna was still out like a light, making her more susceptible to the harsh conditions. I could feel her body grow cold in my grasp, encouraging me to hold her firmly in my embrace in hopes of transferring some of my heat to her.A while later, we were escorted into a hidden building.

    ...Asher POV...I couldn't believe I had let us get caught. I was mad at myself more than anything. I should've planned for something like this. Eli and I went through the same training, yet he was a step ahead of me. I hated him for that. But mostly, I hated myself for getting us in this position. I hated that Sienna was hurt, and it was all my fault.Thankfully, her injuries weren't substantial. As she guessed, the bullet wound was a quick in and out, which meant that she would heal fine. If the bullet were still inside or an inch left or right, the injury would've been more substantial. But I can tell from her injury that Eli never planned on killing her. Rather he just wanted to subdue her. It was no secret that Sienna was highly trained. Eli probably even trained her as well at some point. So he would know that she was a capable fighter, and her instincts would be to fight back. Shooting her would be the quickest way to get a reaction from her, as it would be the last thing she

  • The Huntress   88. Drowning

    ...Sienna POV...My eyes slowly began to flutter open. It felt like I had been run over by a train. I tried to keep my head in an upright position, but it was as though it was weighted down with lead. My stomach began to twist as I tried to keep my head upright, to the point that I had to stop for fear of throwing up all over myself."Good. You're awake." I hear someone call out. However, I can't seem to make out the voice. It sort of sounds familiar, yet not at the same time. My head was pounding so hard that it felt as though someone was beating a drum directly beside my ears. My instincts were to cover my ears, but my arms wouldn't move when I tried. I tried not to panic, but it was growing increasingly difficult. I couldn't remember what was going on or where I was.What happened? I wanted to know, but no words would come out. I tried once more to straighten my head, only to be met with a brutal force, snapping my head to the side. I knew my vision was blurred without even atte

  • The Huntress   87. Peace Treaty

    ...Jace POV...The next hour was pure madness. The moment Damian informed me that he believed something was wrong, I couldn't help but think the same. I had explicitly instructed Asher not to get involved in this. He was supposed to be with Sienna. Taking some much-needed time off from work. Not dwelling further into this case. I don't know what p*ssed me off the most. The fact that Asher had gone behind my back, or the fact that he had dragged Sienna into this as well. Damian was going to blow a gasket the next time I saw him. Damian has always been more protective over Sienna than his sons. It wasn't because he was sexist or believed Sienna to be weak. But rather, he's nearly lost her too many times in the past. It was nothing short of a miracle she wasn't killed when Chase managed to trap Haley and Damian in Zane's apartment. Haley sustained numerous bullet wounds and nearly died. In fact, she technically did. The doctors pulled the plug on her as they realized that no medical int

  • The Huntress   86. Bitter Dispute

    ...Damian POV...After hanging up the phone with Hunter, I couldn't deny the worrying feeling he gave me. Something was off. First, Zach told me that he saw Sienna at Stone Johnson, of all places. I knew she was more involved with the medical side of the business. But she was supposed to be in England. As much as I wanted to assign her a guard, I knew she wouldn't go for it. Asher was the only one she actually took to. But even still, she found a way to escape him. Sienna is far more independent than I would like. Then as if that wasn't bad enough, I get a phone call from Hunter, of all people claiming that he received a notification from Stone Johnson. It didn't take a scientist to determine that the two instances couldn't be just a mere coincidence. Something had definitely happened. I just wasn't sure what. It also seemed as though Hunter was withholding information from me. Call it my paternal instincts, but I could tell something was up. Hunter wouldn't call me if nothing were

  • The Huntress   85. Compromised Position

    ...Asher POV...I wasn't sure what to make of what was happening. But I could tell from Everett's words that he was being sincere. Why else would he have woken me up? He had drugged me, rendering me unconscious. He had ample opportunity to kill me. He didn't have to wake me up, but he did, which meant that he was trying to help us. While I may not fully comprehend what was happening, I could tell Everett was nothing more than a pawn trapped in Silvio's plan. Until I knew what had happened to Sienna, I couldn't risk being found out. Everett had helped me by waking me up. At least this way, I could potentially form a plan. But most importantly, I needed to find out where Sienna was. I desperately hoped that she had managed to escape. But something inside me knew that wasn't the case. I just hoped they hadn't hurt her.I was practically kicking myself for allowing us to get caught in all of this. I was sure we had covered all of our bases. But we had forgotten about one important detail

  • The Huntress   84. Black Out

    ...Everett POV..."F*CK!" I shouted once Asher passed out before me.I couldn't believe what was happening. This was becoming so complicated. I never wanted anyone else to be involved with this. But the moment Sienna and Asher came here, I knew things were going to become drastically worse. I just hope there's something that can be done. I've been around Eli and Cole long enough to know that they won't allow anyone to mess up their plans.On the contrary, what they failed to realize was that they couldn't involve the Stone's without there being some form of retribution. I'm sure Damian has already been made aware of Sienna's presence at the facility if he didn't already know. He'll be the first one on our backs if Sienna goes missing. Damian is ruthless when it comes to business. He wouldn't hesitate to pull his funding and completely ruin everything I've spent decades working on. What I had told Asher was the truth. I started this business as a way to help my mom. People always say

  • The Huntress   83. Bad Feelings

    ...Hunter's POV...I had been on edge all day. The problem, though, was I had no idea why, but for some reason, I couldn't shake this feeling that something was wrong."¿Patron?" Javier calls out, grabbing my attention.I turn around to look at him, crossing my arms over my chest in hopes of steadying my heartbeat. It wasn't that his presence made me nervous, only that I felt as though I was walking on pins and needles, afraid that I would take the wrong step and trigger something. I couldn't explain why I was so on edge. I've been feeling like this for over a week now. But why? Nothing out of the ordinary was taking place here. Rather, it had been rather silent. I had already reclaimed my title, so no one even dared so much as talk out of turn. I made it painfully clear what I do to traitors. I eliminated every single person that had gone against me in one way or another. I even went as far as eliminating the families of all those involved, wiping out anyone that dared to cross my p

  • The Huntress   82. Desert Storm

    "What? Nothing to say?" Everett asks, walking towards me to guide me out of his office. I feel his hand on my elbow, gently guiding me towards the door, which makes me realize I need to get it together. We've come too far to give up now. I can't just walk out empty-handed while Sienna is in with Eli."Wait." I call out, firming my feet along to the floor, preventing Everett from pushing me further."What is it? What could you possibly have to say that would change my mind? Are you going to add a sob story on Damian's behalf? Or perhaps your grandfather forced you to do this?" Everett asks with a curious brow as he awaits my possible excuse.I huff out in annoyance, knowing I no longer have any other options. Either I come clean now or risk never finding Silvio.I quickly reach into the waistband of my pants and grab my gun. I raise it quickly, preventing him from moving. However, to my surprise, Everett simply crosses his arms over his chest as if he was bored."I think it's time we h
