151. The shock

Sierra’s POVAmelia drove the car through the full-fledged space that served as the hospital parking lot, I remained paralyzed in the passenger seat, with my brain somewhere far back and far away from the premises. The distant hum of engines, the occasional beep of reversing vehicles and chatter from people walking toward the entrance of the hospital barely penetrated my consciousness. All I could see in my mind’s eye was Dominic and Elara, Jordan’s brother and his wife, pulling into our street as we were pulling out. The image played in a loop in my mind, each repetition adding a little more of the dread that was now in my chest.Why was he there? Dominic was not one for random visits. Each step he took was deliberate and purposeful. He never acted without thought, nor did he ever go anywhere without aim. It was too much of a coincidence that he happened to show up on my street that second. Something wasn’t right.I tried to rationalize it, to explain logically what he was doing th

152. Where is My Husband?

Sierra’s POVSurrounding the bed where my husband was supposed to lie were a handful of people, a crowd of strangers with faces I had never seen in my entire life. I was too dumbfounded to see that the patient on the bed was not my Jordan. Darting my gaze to the door, I saw the name Jordan boldly written on the name tag, and I knew that wasn’t there before. I shot a dangerous stare at the strange aces that were waiting for me to explain my unwanted presence in the supposed private moment.They were crowded around a patient who looked like he had been bedridden for a couple of months and was learning how to walk again. They took intermittent looks at me while talking in hushed and urgent tones, their faces a mixture of worry and fatigue. But they weren’t what shocked me to my core. It was the man on the bed. It wasn’t Jordan. I gasped, my pulse roaring in my ears. The face staring back at me was that of a stranger, someone else entirely, and I wondered how possible that was between t

153. Finding Jordan

Sierra’s POVAmelia looked at me with sympathy in her eyes. She didn’t need to utter the words, I could see in her eyes that her heart was deeply reaching out to me. The younger nurse, the one with the tight bun, didn’t even look at me as she typed into her computer. For several agonizing seconds, all I was met with was the sound of keys clacking underneath her fingers. I gritted my teeth, running out of patience, scared. Amelia could no longer hold in her frustration and slammed her palm against the desk. "Are you deaf? A question just came from my friend! So where is her husband, Jordan? The older nurse sighed and eyed us pointedly. “Ma’am, can you quiet down, please? This is a hospital."I barely heard her. My heart thumped in my ears louder than any war drum. The smell of disinfectant, sterile and strong, stung my nostrils as I fought back anger. The younger nurse finally chimed in, her voice flat, impersonal. “What is the patient’s full name?”"Jordan. “Jordan Carter,” I said,

154. Someone Barged In!

Sierra’s POV“Hi, we’re here to see a patient named Jordan Pierce,” she said smoothly.The receptionist typed something into her computer and frowned. “I’m sorry, but there’s no patient by that name in our system.”My stomach dropped. “No way,” I blurted. “He was brought here this morning.”The woman shook her head. “I don’t have any record of that.”A chill ran down my spine. Amelia leaned in, speaking quietly. "Are you sure? Maybe under a different name, he was admitted?”The receptionist paused and then shook her head again. "I’m sorry. We don’t have a patient by that name here.”I stepped back, my breath short. Jordan wasn’t here. Dominic had lied, and now my husband was missing.A chill of dread passed through me, leaving me frozen in place. My pulse pounding in my ears, I shared a look with Amelia, who was already tightening beside me. Her mouth thinned; her hands balled into fists at her sides."He’s not here?" I repeated with a voice barely a whisper, but each syllable drippe

155. Answers in the Estate

Sierra’s POVThe air in the house was stagnant, too stagnant. Even the walls themselves seemed to hold their breath. A slow, creeping unease began climbing my spine as my eyes roamed the living room. Everything was almost the same way we left it, the only difference was the weight in the air which hadn’t been there. Before leaving the house earlier, I hadn’t drunk from a glass cup, I only used a mug to drink the coffee that Amelia made me.So, how come a glass of water was sitting pretty on the coffee table? A chill shot through me. I had not left a glass of water sitting there. Neither had Amelia. I turned and nearly choked on my breath at the sight of Amelia standing behind me. I wasn’t aware that she was there, thank goodness that I didn’t scream. My rigid stance caught her eye for exactly the opposite reason."What is it? Why do you look scared?” she said, low and alert.I raised a trembling hand and pointed at the glass. “That wasn’t there when we left.”Amelia’s eyes turned da

156. The Black Car

Sierra’s POVWhen I stepped outside, my heart thundered against my ribs. The cold night air did nothing to calm my nerves as I surveyed the empty entrance. A heavy sense of unease wrapped itself around me like a coat. My heart raced as I took slow, measured steps forward. The guards were gone. None of them were at their regular posts. Not at the entrance, not along the fence, not next to the compound gate.I pivoted on my heel, my stomach twisting into tight knots. This wasn’t normal. The guards were ever present, standing as if they were immovable sentinels, gazing over the house and watching it. It wasn’t just unusual but disturbing that they weren’t there now. There was something very wrong. My body shivered, and I swallowed the new lump that had just formed in my throat."Amelia!" I shouted, my voice laced with panic. Moments later, she was in the doorway, her bewildered face quickly turning into a concerned one as I stared back at her with suspicious eyes."What’s wrong?" she a

157. Why Me?

Sierra’s POVA heavy silence filled the room, the gravity of Luca’s words resting heavily on our shoulders. I thought furiously, flailing at possible explanations, one conclusion stood clear, Dominic was out there, closing in.I faced the window, my heart racing as I gently drew the curtains. It was dark, but I eyed every shadow, every parked car, every sign we were still being followed. Nothing came to the fore.But that didn’t mean we were out of danger. So, Amelia, still holding Luca in a protective embrace, spoke softly but with firmness. "We can’t stay here. If they were watching the house in advance, it’s likely they’ll return and I will not endanger Luca or Little B.”I nodded, but dread twisted in my stomach. “We have to calibrate our next step. You cannot just run without knowing the way."I retracted, gazing into Luca’s eyes. “Darling, did you see the car drive off? How long was it outside?"Luca paused, then shook his head. “I don’t know … I fell asleep for a while, and wh

158. The Deal

Sierra’s POVI balled my hands into fists, my nails biting into my palms as I took in Ethan’s words. My pulse throbbed in my ears, drowning out the sound of people talking at the other tables. I had known Dominic was a threat, but having it come from Ethan and knowing how much worse things had gotten made my stomach churn with dread. But running? That wasn’t an option.I leaned in, locking eyes with Ethan. "I’m not leaving through the back door like a coward. I will stay and fight for what I treasure," I emphasised, my voice almost betraying me in the process.Ethan’s expression hardened. "Sierra, this isn’t a game. Dominic isn’t playing politics anymore he’s removing threats, and at this moment, you’re the first on his list.”“What do you even mean by that, Ethan? I met Dominic at the resort a few months ago. He was there with his wife, and it didn’t seem like he could hurt a fly, let alone come for his brother’s wife after kidnapping his brother from the hospital. Make it make sens

159. The Real Fear Had Started

Sierra’s POVEthan had given us a few last instructions, telling me to get some rest before tomorrow’s mission. But my mind was anything but restful as Amelia and I drove back home.“Uh, you sure about this, Sierra? Amelia asked, her hands holding the wheel. Her voice was careful, but I heard the thrill of it too. “We’re talking about walking right into The lion’s den. If Dominic gets a whiff of suspicion, we’re toast.”I looked out the moving glass into the blurring lights of the city. “I don’t have a choice,” I said softly. “We don’t know where Jordan is because of Dominic. “I may never get another opportunity to stop him if I don’t do it now.”Amelia sighed but didn’t protest. She knew me well enough to know that once I’d made up my mind, you could forget about talking me out of it. Instead, she shifted gears. “Alright, we need a good disguise first. “We can’t just stroll into Avalon looking like us.”That part at least I agreed with. Dominic had seen me enough times that he recog

160. Faded Disguise

Sierra’s POVThe room Dominic took us into was brooding with exclusivity. Leather couches covered in plush material lined the walls, and a single crystal chandelier gleamed eerily down on the marble flooring. In the centre was a glass table with a half-empty bottle of bourbon and two crystal glasses. It was all power, indulgence and secrecy in this place.Dominic came in behind us, shutting the door with a soft click. He had held that smirk since the moment he had seen each of us, and it chilled me to my core. He was not suspicious, at least not the way we had dreaded. No, this was something else. He was enjoying this. He poured himself another drink, ice clinking against the glass, and waved at the couch. “Make yourselves comfortable, ladies.”Amelia and I exchanged glances. This was it. If we hesitated now, we would give up whatever advantage we had. In one sweeping action, we all removed our costumes. Amelia first ripped off her fake nose, then stripped away her green contact le
