Reed’s POV “She isn't going to fall for that. She's already suspecting me that I might snitch on her soon" I tried explaining the current status of my partnership with Chloe. She wasn't going to fall for such cheap antics. Chloe was more smarter than they gave her more credit for. The police officer seemed unbothered he didn't buy my idea. “With my years of experience, criminals always come out to meet their partners,” he said opposing my statement about Chloe. He had no idea who he was talking about. Chloe's IQ is not from this world. She would smell the rat in the haystack. “Trust me, she isn't that dumb. She's a mastermind. That explains the reason you weren't able to find the kids until now” I explained to the police officer. Chloe's plan was almost flawless, the only part that had a flaw was, the part of Azek and Mia splitting. She took the kids without leaving a trace or clue where she might have taken them. “That very day, she gave me a location where I could drop the kid

Mia's POV “Calm down honey, you should be happy we now have a major lead in finding the kids” I tried showing Azek the Bright side of the whole situation. I understood his anger, the friend we all loved had gone rogue. Reed was a family friend we all loved, his recent actions ruined and destroyed the friendship we all shared right from high school. It was enough to piss one off. “His just a fool, I'm tired of his games. He would be locked in that prison for life. And I would make sure he doesn't get any help” Azek yelled as he paced randomly and restlessly in the room. Natalia and I just watched him vent his anger on the furniture around the room. “ Please calm down, let's focus on the matter at hand. Getting flared up won't bring the kids back. We need to calm our minds and prepare for the battle ahead” Natalia explained trying to calm Azek down. She hasn't made a statement this lengthy in a while. I was happy that she was regaining her strength fast and by the minute. “So tell

Azek's POV “How long would she be here” I asked a nurse who was attending to Natalia. I had plans of putting her under heavy supervision by the police force. I didn't want her missing again. “She might be here another day or two but if her recovery is fast, she could discharge tomorrow” the nurse replied to me with a bright smile on her face. I still wasn't happy with the idea, it made me feel I was going to lose Mia again. And I wasn't ready to go down that route once again. The end of that road was nothing far from despair and pain. Mia was cool with it, so it wasn't that bad. I said to myself. My mind became more unsettled as I tried convincing myself that the plan was for the greater good. “You guys just go and get the plan in motion I would be fine,” Natalia said softly as she tried telling us to go on leaving her at the hospital. “If we are going to leave you here, I would leave you under heavy surveillance. I can't let you go missing again. We can't trust anyone at this

Chloe’s POV“What plan do you have towards achieving the task given to you?” Amber said to me. It was a calm day, I was just enjoying my sanity until my mum remembered that she had given me a task to split Azek’s family. She asked for my progress so far on my plan, but I wasn't ready to reveal my plan. It was a cool evening, I sat in the living room watching some TV shows, laughing, and drinking a cocktail. Generally enjoy my evening. When I heard my mum’s voice thunder down from upstairs. My good and calm evening was ruined in an instant. “This is the fifth time I am asking for this. You have limited time in this house if you don't get that simple task done. I don't get what is difficult about separating that good-for-nothing girl’s family” Amber said spewed her words with mockery all over her sentences. I couldn't blame her cause it was her nature. She was bent on traumatizing me as far as I lived with her. This was my last stray and after this, I won't be her puppet anymore. She

Mia’s POV “We are now divorced, I need a separate apartment to seal the deal and further agitate the entire scenario,” I said. Azek stopped in his tracks, turned to me, and stared at me in confusion. His expression told me he didn't like that idea. And he thought I was taking this divorce thing too seriously. It was the following day, We were back at the hospital. The air is filled with the stench of drugs; balms and syrups. The indistinct chatters of patients trooping in from the main entrance into the reception flood into the wards echoing down the hallway. Natalia was getting better and she was very close to being discharged. We spent some quality time together. The hope and unity we once shared were starting to come back into our minds. “What do you mean, so you want to leave the mansion or what ?” Azek asked in a slow-paced speech. His eyes scanned my countenance for any clue of my answer. I sensed the fear in his eyes. He was just trying to get comfortable with the whale st

Chloe’s POV “It's time to move to phase two of my plan, Mia should be by herself now,” said Amber who sat in the dining room. She kept calm after seeing the news of Mia and Azek’s divorce. She didn't insult me for a whole twenty-four hours and I was surprised but I suspected it. She only wanted me to do what she had instructed me to do, and all those insults were just ways of pushing me. It was a cool morning, twenty-four hours after the news went viral. The air was fresh and the house was quiet and calm. The only sound breaking the science in the house was the sound of the TV broadcasting shows. Amber and I relaxed in the living room having a recap of my plans. She seemed impressed but I knew it was all for show. “You proved yourself, I thought you were not making any plans towards the instruction I gave you. But you proved yourself and am proud” Amber said calmly and with an evil grin on her face. I knew all these words were made out of the hypocritical heart y mu had. She was no

Mia’s POV“It's almost time, I don't want to miss another opportunity to be reunited with my boys” I yelled at Azek who was delaying. He had told me not to go there alone. At this point, I didn't care if I went there alone or not. I just wanted to get my boys. This was the last opportunity I had. The more I pondered over the situation the more I got lost in thoughts of despair. We were still at the hospital, with so many things to do, Natalia’s discharge was still processing, the police were still a mile away from the hospital, and Azek needed to finish making the necessary preparations for the exchange. He was already worked up, his eyes deprived and his face squeezed from so much frowning and thinking. “Mia, I won't let go there unprotected, we don't know what Chloe has in store. What if she had another plan to whisk you away too? I can't lose you or anybody again. Please just stay put and allow me to put things in place” Azek's words stuck me hard. He was already traumatized. His

The ExchangeMia’s POV The voice yelling at me sent chills down my spine. I scanned the area but the evening fog prevented me from seeing far from where I stood. I kept my cool and answered the question. With a shaky voice, a feeble leg, and a traumatized mind I stood there like a dried leaf awaiting the violent winds to blow me away into oblivion. The voice came from the depth of a dimly lit alley, I stood right in front of the alleyway. The silence was deafening, the sound of water dripping into a puddle created an eerie atmosphere. Fear gripped me, eating my courage away like a parasite. “My name is Mia and I came to get my kids” I spoke loudly but my voice was a bit shaky revealing the fear that gripped me. There was silence for a few seconds and I thought I wasn't audible enough. So I took another deep breath to repeat myself but I was cut short by the male voice again. “Are you alone ?”This question made my legs shake and my feeble mind drowned in fear. My lips became heavy
