I stared at the pictures in my hand. Stared at them longer than I should have.
The pictures were shaking only because my hands were trembling. Anger had been a constant emotion inside of me since Rebecca had been taken away. I lived on the anger inside of me. It kept me going. It kept me grounded enough to find my Angel.
But now, I was raging. There’s a big difference between anger and fury. Anger was enough to make someone go insane. But fury, it made people psychotic.
And that was exactly how I felt.

Twelve.I heard the door behind us open. It closed with a bang. I heard the sound of high heels clicking against the hard floor.“Did someone call me?” the intruder said to my back.

I grew worried as each minute ticked by.I hoped that tonight was the night they would bring Rebecca home.So I sat on the sofa in my nightdress with my robe around me. I waited. I prayed that by some miracle Rebecca was going to appear in front of me, safe and sound.But again, tonight that wasn’t the case.The men walked through the doors, and I jumped to my feet, looking wildly around them for any sight of Rebecca. When I saw their heads hung down, their shoulder sagged with yet another night filled with defeat, my throat closed up.&nbs

How did I miss it?Tears of anger and frustration blurred my vision. But I was also hurting at the thought of Rebecca being in pain because of the man I loved.The bastard. How could he?Artemy would never let him live. Hell, I wouldn’t let him live.Stepping forward, I marched toward M

ArtemyThe sound of a gunshot was a shock through my body. Everything was silent, cold, as I stared at the piano thinking about Rebecca.And then the silence was gone. Replaced with the sound of a gunshot. I heard a scream. Then another gunshot.Everything else happened in a blur. My feet acted of their own accord, and I was running out of the piano room without a second thought.Another painful scream. Lynda’s voice. It was Lynda’s voice.I followed the scream toward the end of the hall, my heart racing wildly in my chest. I heard footsteps behind me, and without looking, I knew it was Brayden and Avim.

ArtemyWhen I saw Milandro’s eyes rolling back into his head, I pressed one more time before releasing him. His head fell forward, and he coughed dangerously, desperately gasping for his next breath.His whole body shook with the effort to take in as much air as he could.When I noticed him getting in control of his labored breathing, I grabbed his hair and pulled his head back. I held his neck against the back of the chair and glared.“Why?” I simply asked.One word. One question. Milandro was one of my men. He understood how I worked. He understood what I wanted without even asking.

Swiftly, I elevated myself into a sitting position, my eyes grappling with the persistent morning radiance as I blinked away the remnants of sleep.Emerging from the covers, I navigated my way toward the crib stationed nearby, only to discover it vacant, devoid of the presence I anticipated. My recollection painted a picture of Artemy embarking on his early morning ritual to tend to Cevia. Had they not returned to the comfort of our shared sanctuary?While enveloping myself in a robe, I embarked on a trajectory towards the bathroom, swiftly tending to the ritual of dental hygiene and facial invigoration.
