"Trade, Luca, trade but it's not the kind of trade that we thought it was but this is worst,""How Liam? Go straight to the point will you?""They are trading humans, not just any humans, women and children,"He revealed going into details and telling him everything Annette had told him not leaving out a single detail and even adding some fitting to make it more of an emergency."That's the more reason for you to get out of there, I will send a plane over to meet you at the shore when the ferry arrived, there is supposed to be a ferry ride tomorrow right? Please come back home and we can talk about what we can do for them,"Luca said when Liam was done talking, it pissed him off, he was so close to losing his cool, Luca wasn't seeing anything he was saying, he was disregarding his words which were both disrespectful and annoying."Luca, I didn't call you because I want to come home, I called you to confirm some claims, and the next thing you think of is for me to come home? Did you ev

Ruby sat in Annette's ward, she couldn't risk leaving her on her own, she had instructed the others to call her if anything else needed her attention and was currently watching the woman sleep, she was so tired and needed to sleep too but she knew she would not get that sleep anytime soon, not when the chances of her leaving again were high, Liam was still not back and she wondered what's keeping him for so long, would his brother-in-law want him back, she hoped not, she didn't want him to leave and he already promised her that he won't leave them here but what if he doesn't have a choice, his job was totally different from hers so maybe there were rules that might make his staying here impossible, she wished he would just come back already and put her mind at ease.Annette was currently sleeping peacefully and Ruby wished she could fall asleep too but she had too much on her mind and she couldn't risk falling asleep either, at least not until Liam returns, Annette hadn't said a word

"My brother? He said he will make an inquiry and get back to me,"He disclosed."So does that mean it's okay for you to stay here with us?""Yes, it is and he is going to help, I think by the next ferry ride he might send someone else to join me, I don't know what he will choose to do yet until I talk to him again,"He explained. Ruby was already relieved by the fact that his brother was letting him stay."You look, tired lady, when last did you sleep?"Liam asked her touching her forehead, his hands were cold, and she closed her eyes for a moment, enjoying the feel of his hand, when she opened them again he was frowning at her."What?"She mouthed."You have a fever, you are not taking care of yourself, and that's not okay, you have to look out for yourself too Ruby, ain't no way a sick person gonna be able to attend to work properly, you should keep that in mind and take care of your health,"He scolded."Wow, calm down, no need for the lecture, it's not like I am not taking care of

One moment she was in Liam's arms having a great time and the next she was running to Annette's ward, hoping that she will be fine, she hurriedly opened the door, met Sara and trying to talk to her, she quickly put on a glove, and stepped in, she wasn't looking good at all, she checked her pulse, it was almost unresponsive, her heart rate on the monitor was not doing great either."What happened here?""She is refusing to take anything, and is not telling us what's going on, her heart rate is not even, it keeps going up and coming down, I think she is going to go into a shock, can you help?"She didn't wait to be told twice, she step closer to her."Annette, what happened?""Not you doc, I don't have much time, I want to speak to the man, please, please,"She said, at first Ruby didn't understand what she said but when she turned, her eyes met with Liam and she understood but didn't think it was right for her to let her talk to him now, they have to make sure she was okay first, that

Liam ran behind her, he should have thought of the kid's ward too, but he had forgotten in all the haste, he just hope they were all gone, at least ten children were in there and they made a big mistake leaving them there and the children ward was too far from the Ward where Annette had been, he still couldn't believe that she was no more, he felt like he failed her, he failed her, failed to give her freedom and now she was dead, but he promised himself that he won't let her just die in vain, he would make sure to catch the people involved in this and bring them to face justice for all their crimes and also, he would make sure her young son gets to be with her family too.Ruby opened the door to the children's ward and he held his breath and walked in behind her, she was breathing heavily as she checked on the children and collapsed on the ground a few moments later, he ran to her and knelt beside her, she was a crying mess, he didn't know the actual number of children in the room so

"Oh God, who is the monster doing something like that? Why children? Why are the mothers letting them? Why did they kill Annette? I have so many questions,"Sara said and the other nodded, they all looked sick."I can't answer all your questions but Liam has some answers, we still don't know the half of it yet, Liam can you answer please?"He said looking at him, he nodded."For now, all we know is that they get these women here somehow, after making them go through hell in a camo, making coming here seem like heaven and then sending them here, then they wait for men who come around to sleep with them with the intentions of getting them pregnant and after which the men leave and the women stay behind to give birth and again after a while they come back and take the children away, which is why some of the moms are no longer with their children, according to her, they take the male children and leave the females with their mom which will also explain why there are abandoned girl childre

Liam looked around to make sure no one was close by the house, before opening the door to Annette's apartment, the place was small unlike his apartment, it had a bed, a table, and a wardrobe, and there were plates and cups at one end, he felt like he was invading her privacy and let out a small sorry before searching for what he came to look for, first he checked the wardrobe but there was nothing there, checked under the bed, and all, still he couldn't find anything that looks like a diary, after searching the whole room for over an hour without finding anything he cursed under his breath."What the fuck?"He thought out loud, maybe someone was here earlier and had taken it, but then it dawned on him that Annette might not have kept it where it can be easily be seen, he looked around wondering where he would have hidden something like that if it were to be him, he looked up at the ceiling, there was no cracking."It's not here,"He thought as he walked out of the apartment, looking a

Ruby sat in her office waiting for Liam to return, there was no point trying to fall asleep because she knew she wasn't going to get any sleep, that's how it will be for now and it wasn't because she wanted it to be that way, so much has happened especially today that broke her resolve, if it weren't for her team and Liam she would have given up, packed up and ran, in fact, she would not have found out in the first place, she wasn't as strong as she had expected she was, little Kristen cried out bringing her out if her thoughts, she walked to where the baby slept and picked her up, the little princess eyes shone, she must have been awake for a while."Hi, baby, your daddy will be back soon,"She said and the little one stared at her, Ruby already shared a special bond with this child, she didn't know how it happened but she fell in love with this precious baby and couldn't help thinking about what might have happened to her mom, why did she drop her off without coming back for her, sh

Ruby laid in Liam's arms, she still couldn't fall asleep, nothing could help her fall asleep, not after the nightmare she witnessed today, it was horrors upon horrors, and the diary Liam found, it will be filled with more horrors and she knew it wasn't going to stop soon, this island was a ticking bomb and it might explode anytime soon"Doc, you need to get some sleep you really need to sleep, you can't keep going like this,""I know, but I can't seem to fall asleep, I just feel like I shouldn't talk asleep,""You have to,""I didn't ask you what your brother said, can we talk about it?""No, we can't, we will do that tomorrow, I told you you need to get some sleep or you might end up getting sick and we can't have that,""I am not sleepy,""Ruby,""The diary, what's inside?"She asked wanting to get it over and done with, she already knew there will be horrible things inside, she just wanted to hear it."I haven't read it in all Ruby but I took photos and sent them to Luca, we will t

"So what are our plans?"Ruby asked after they ate breakfast, she needed to be at the hospital by ten, the only reason she was able to stay here was because the hospital was still safe despite what happened yesterday, they weren't targeting them, at least not yet, she just hope that they will find a way out before that happens, a way to get everyone out of here but the problem is will the women be willing to talk? The ones helping out in the hospital don't say anything except to each other or they want to report a situation, they just still to themselves, even after what happened yesterday, they all acted like it was not a new thing, which was all shade of wrong, she wishes there was a way to get through to them, after Annette, it was safe to assume that most of the women understand English too and they were just pretending not to."For now, we are going to be on the lookout, we can't just take the kids out, nor can we pull anybody out, and we don't have enough evidence yet and there
