The way I was driving right now—I had never driven like that before. I just kept blaring the horn, speeding at the highest limit without even stopping at the traffic signal. I knew that I would still have to drop by the police station later but right now, we were talking about my daughter. The tires screeched as I pulled into the school parking lot, my heart hammering in my chest. My hands trembled against the steering wheel as I jerked to a stop, barely remembering to put the car in park before I flung the door open. "Maya, wait!" Betsy called out behind me, her voice thin with worry as she and Mia scrambled from their seats. But I ignored her, my legs propelling me forward with a mother's desperate energy. Every second that passed without knowing where my daughter was felt like glass shards in my lungs. "She has to be somewhere within the school," Mia panted, jogging to catch up with me. "There has to be some misunderstanding." I whirled around, my eyes burning. "Then why d

~~~~ASHLEY'S POV~~~ I sat on the dusty floor in an old industrial building, which was one of my father's properties. A perfect place to carry out my plan and make sure that my father also goes down with me. After selling me out, he should at least expect this amount of punishment. I rested my back against the cold, cracked wall, and my finger traced the face of Bella, who was sleeping peacefully on my lap. I'd been drugging her as she just wouldn't stop asking me so many questions about why we're here instead of going home. She kept asking about another mommy when her real mother was here. Ughhh… She's just so hard to please. Are all kids like this? Or was she the weird one? But she would wake up soon, as we were going to go back to the house she desperately wanted to return to after I settled scores with Maya. But where the fuck is that fool? Why is he taking so long? I only instructed him to make sure that Maya was coming alone and not bringing any cops or even

~~~~LANCE'S POV~~~ I hadn’t slept. Not since Bella went missing. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw her—my little girl, lost and afraid. She was calling out for me, needing me, and telling me to come and save her, but I couldn't because I had no idea where she was. The thought alone was enough to drive me insane. I sat in the back of the police car, staring out of the window, but I wasn’t really seeing anything. The city lights blurred past, but all I could think about was her, and every back view of a little child I saw on the street looked so much like her. I had stopped the car several times, thinking it was her on the street, but each time I saw their faces, it turned out that it wasn't her, and I was left with nothing but disappointment. My hands clenched into fists as the pain was unbearable, and the worst part was that I didn't even know anything. Nothing at all, and it was killing me. I was trying to be patient, trying to think straight, but I was losing my mind

~~~~MAYA’S POV~~~"MIA!" Betsy shrieked, her voice shaking with terror as her hand flew to her mouth.I gasped as Mia stumbled backward, her dress turning red as blood bloomed across it.She had thrown herself in front of the bullet. She had shielded Bella with her own body.I ran to her, my heart slamming against my ribs. "No! No, Mia, stay with me! Don’t you dare close your eyes!"I dropped to my knees beside her, my hands trembling as I pressed down on the wound, trying to stop the bleeding, but it just wouldn’t stop. Neither would it slow down. Warm and sticky blood gushed through my fingers, soaking my hands and staining my skin.She's losing too much blood.My chest felt like it was being ripped open, like someone had reached inside me and was squeezing my heart until it shattered into a million pieces.As I watched her lying in this position, tears filled my eyes, blurring my vision.I called and screamed for help, and Betsy quickly brought out her phone and began making calls.

The hall was quiet, filled with the soft murmurs of people talking in hushed voices. The only loud sounds were the occasional sniffle or the rustling of fabric as someone shifted uncomfortably in their seat.A few candles flickered near the large framed photo of Mia, casting shadows on her smiling face. It almost made it look as if she was watching us.But she wasn’t—she was right in front of all of us… in the coffin.I took a deep breath as I looked around from where I was standing. I just wished that this would end soon and that all these passing storms would go with it.There were few people here, as the burial was private. Maya’s parents were seated in the front row on the left side, with Bella sitting between them.Kingsley also came with Lysol.Henry was also here, but the monkey could be seen leaning against the wall at the back of the hall, arguing with his client. He couldn't even spare time to pay respect to the dead.Betsy sat with Maya in the front row, in the middle of th
