I glanced back at the window. The amusement park, once eerie and dead quiet, was now lit up like a dream. Cheers from outside drifted in, muffled but unmistakable."It's back," Wayne muttered, eyes glued to the glowing scene beyond the glass."Ms. Kay, Mr. Johnston, look..." One of the tech guys pointed at the monitor, voice tight.I followed his gaze. The lights on the screen weren't stable anymore. They'd warped into messy, zigzagging streaks."There's still an issue," Wayne said, frowning hard.For a beat, I just stared, heart pounding. Then, without thinking, I bolted for the door. I didn't stop running until I was outside. The noise hit me like a wall—screams, gasps, and excited chatter. A crowd was gathered, all pointing at the lights."There are words up there!" someone shouted.I tilted my head back, and my breath caught. The shifting lights sparked a memory—Hayden's proposal. My chest squeezed as I remembered the streamers, the words floating around me: [Kiki, marry me.

"You watched him get cremated, didn't you? It's probably just a coincidence." Without waiting for a response, he ended the call. His gaze drifted back up to the Ferris wheel, where Keira was still at the top.***I stayed up there until the last of the park-goers had left, until the bright lights dimmed and melted into the quiet of the night. Only then did I finally step off the Ferris wheel.Wayne was still waiting, coming over to help me down.His eyes scanned my face, like he was trying to read something I wasn't offering.But I'd left everything up there, spilled out with the view. By the time I was back on the ground, I was just... me again."It's late. Let's go," he said softly.I trailed behind him out of the park, breaking the silence with, "Tell me about Demi.""She's in Lindale. That's all I know. If you want more, you'll have to reach out yourself," he said, careful as always.He pulled out his phone and tapped out a quick message. "Her number and address. Sent.""

The thought hit me out of nowhere: 'I want a child like that.'I drove away from Desmond's parents' place and back to work. On the way, I tried calling Demi—straight to voicemail.Wayne's info had to be solid, so if she wasn't picking up, it was because she was avoiding me. Frustrated, I shot her a text:[Demi, if you still consider me a friend, pick up my call.]Nothing. No reply. Not even a read receipt. Just silence.Guess I'd have to track her down myself.***Technically, I was still on the clock, but my boss wasn't exactly strict. Without hesitation, I booked a flight to Lindale. Just as I confirmed the ticket, Ron walked in, water glass in hand."You've been way too chill lately," he said, plopping into the chair across from me.I didn't need a crystal ball to know what he meant. He'd probably seen the latest headlines about me. "What? Here to pile on more work?" I deadpanned."Obviously," he shot back. "If I don't, you'll just cause more chaos. And if things go south

Of course. A guy like him—a leech who targets women—would have a knack for spotting wealthy, attractive targets.If Jorian recognized me, he'd already done his homework. He might've even targeted me before."What do you think I'm here for?" I asked, letting the sarcasm drip.Jorian didn't flinch. "It's about Demi, right?"So, he knew. No point playing dumb. "Yeah," I said. "What did you do to her? And don't give me the cop version—I want the truth.""I'm not obligated to tell you anything," he replied smoothly, like he thought he still had some leverage.I raised a brow. "Then what'll it take for you to talk?"Honestly, he was in no position to negotiate. Even if I offered him cash, he wouldn't be able to spend it from behind bars. But he held up two fingers.I let out a sharp laugh. "Seriously? Aren't you worried about adding extortion to your rap sheet? And even if I gave you the cash, you can't spend it behind bars.""It's not for me," he said, serious now. "It's for my par

The man fumbled with his phone and quickly rattled off an account number. Without hesitation, I transferred the $300,000."Now, the IOU," I demanded, holding out my hand.They passed it over begrudgingly, one muttering under his breath, "Damn, didn't think you were this rich."I met his gaze. "I'm not just rich—I have connections. If you ever come back to harass her again, you might hold the money, but I promise, you won't live long enough to spend it."Sometimes, you just have to bring the heat.Their cocky smirks vanished as they slinked off, but one couldn't resist tossing a jab at Demi over his shoulder. "With a rich bestie like her, why take out a loan?""Get lost!" I snapped.They scurried off, but Demi didn't relax. Her whole body trembled."It's over now. They're gone," I said softly, stepping forward to pull her into a hug."Ahhhh—"Her wail ripped through the silence, raw and full of anguish.I didn't say anything. I just let her release everything she'd been bottl
