The search begins Mia's POV A few hours later, the sounds of police sirens pierced through the air. My heart increased its beat speed as I saw police officers flood the mansion. All moving around and searching the hell place. This scene gave me an eerie feeling like I was in a nightmare and I needed to be awoken. As they entered the mansion, Azek and I recapped all that had happened — the boys missing, Chloe's threats. My voice was shaky as I spoke, my hands trembled, and my thoughts scattered, but I figured myself to focus. The lead detective, a tall dark man, nodded thoughtfully. He had a stern but reassuring look, his calm demeanor gave a sense of silver comfort. He took down every last detail we gave. His reassuring presence did little to calm the storm raging inside me. Azek stood beside me, holding me passionately, his jaw clenched from terror as he answered questions. The police officers assured us that they would make sure our boys were found as soon as possible. But th

Including the joy and hope of the boys. Mia and Azek clung to each other like rabbits in the cold. They were holding to the tiny strand of hope they had left after the police officers found a minor lead about the whereabouts of the boys. I watched as everything unfolded in a manner that wreaked havoc in the hearts of everyone involved. I felt bad for Mia. Not only that, but I could see her lose her sanity but the hours. The events were rather slow, it felt like an eternity before the police could find a good lead that would take us closer to finding the boys. It was only a few hours since the e police arrived, and everything moved in slow motion. The heartbreaking events had slowed things down. As things unfold in slow motion, I couldn't shake off this wrong feeling. I stood there askin

The confrontation Natalia's POV Their conversation ended abruptly, as Reed heard my phone ring. As I stood there not moving a muscle, I tried to listen. Reed started making his way to the door. I felt like my feet were glued to the floor. I froze in fear. And I also didn't want him to find out I was eavesdropping on his evil conversation with Chloe. I fought with my legs to carry me away from the door. My legs were just frozen. The shock of the entire situation made my legs so heavy I couldn't move them, let alone run from the door. “What do I do” I asked myself still in the seconds I had to run or confront him. As his footsteps drew closer and closer to the door, my heart squeezed under the pressure of fear with each step I heard. Luckily, before he couldn't finish opening the lock, I ran into an empty apartment, closing the door behind me. I peeked through the keyhole, to see if he had any clue pointing it was me. He just looked left and right down the hallway and shook his hea

The search continues Azek's POV “Oh my God! why is it taking this long to find them!" I yelled at the chief detective. I had started losing it. The information about the car spotted around the Mansion was supposed to bring us closer to finding the boys. Instead, it created more confusion about the entire situation. I just couldn't get over the feeling that the information was incomplete. “Please sir, we are doing our best. Just relax and let us do our jobs" the chief detective said in a calm tone. The police were methodical with their approaches and operations, but it seemed as if the car just vanished into thin air. The CCTV footage didn't have enough coverage of the car and the direction it might be going in. This caused a feeling in everyone's mind like we were looking for traction on the Search. Other ideas were dropped to provide full attention to the information on the car. Hours flew by, and the faster they flew the more depressed Mia felt. I could see from her countenance

The Awakening Natalia's POV “Ouch !” I yelled as I woke. This pain at the back of my head made my eyes twisted with intense dizziness. My vision was blurry and my skin was slippery from sweat. As I woke, my consciousness flickered.As I opened my eyes, I looked around, observing the place. Where was I? I asked myself. The room was dimly lit, cold, and uninviting. The walls were of concrete and the air was musty, making it a little difficult to breathe. As I sat on the floor I felt the tightness of the course rope used to secure my hand behind me. I pulled my hand hard, but they won't budge. As I sat there, I slowly realized the gravity of the situation. I was kidnapped too! My heartbeat increased, and the rhythm changed to an irregular pace causing me to gasp for breath by the minute. “No! This can't be" I said to myself trying to free myself from the restraints. I struggled for some minutes, and then I took a moment to think and recalled how I got there. The pain at the back of

The Escape Natalia's POV “What the heck is this place !” I screened as I ran with all my strength. Dashing down the corridors, my breath left me gasping for air. The corridors seemed endless as they twisted and bent on each turn. These turns Disoriented me, causing my confidence to fade away as raced down the pathways. The more bends I took, the more my anxiety and fear grew. I struggled to keep my bearings and sense of direction. The corridors were dark, allowing you to see a few meters away. Reed's voice echoed through the pathways. He didn't expect that I would be able to outsmart him and free myself from his restraints. “Natalia wait !” His voices tear through the darkness. He frantically searches for me, opening and banging on each door he comes across on his path. I maintained silence and focused on getting out of there. Every twist and turn I made felt like a gamble of life and death. I certainly knew that one wrong move would lead me right back into Reed's clutches. As I

I took a glance at the strange man, he looked haggard but had this expression of remorse and sympathy on his face. Something inside me wanted to trust him and he had given us information we would have never found.I tugged on Azek’s shirt signaling him to relax and the man looked friendly. I stepped out from Azek’s back showing that I wasn’t scared and I was willing to listen to the man. He introduced himself as Daniel. “He might be telling the truth and he just told us something that we never knew,” I said to Azek. Before I could finish convincing Azek the tactical squad stormed in pinning the man to the ground. Azek relaxed and told them to leave him and let him talk.“Can you take us there?” Azek asked the man. He just nodded and promised to help us get to the bottom of the matter.
