I known as Caleb subsequent. It was the identical with him. His telephone rang for an extended minute earlier than the decision switched off mechanically.

“Did they get accomplished with their exams too?”

“Yeah.”

“Perhaps they’re trashed,” mentioned Kendra. “Everybody’s sleeping it off after partying final evening. Why did you get residence so early? I noticed the man with the beanie hat doing beer pongs at Jill Hilton’s celebration after midnight.”

“I bought drained early,” I lied.

“You may at all times head over to your stepdad’s home, you understand,” mentioned Kendra.

I set free a quiet sigh. That was the very factor I wished to keep away from.

“I’ll await a number of extra hours,” I mentioned. “In the event that they don’t contact me, that’s what I’ll should do.”

Kendra yawned and bought to her toes. “This espresso isn’t serving to in any respect.”

“Perhaps you simply want extra sleep.”

Kendra chuckled and winked. “I suppose. See you in one other couple of hours.” With that, she padded again to her room.

Anxiousness swirled inside me.Please, allow them to be okay, I prayed silently.

To cease me from pondering an excessive amount of, I turned on one other film. Hopefully, by the top of it, Mother or Brian would ship me a textual content.

The entire film performed out. Late afternoon sunshine got here in via the curtains on the window, illuminating the tiny kitchenette.

Kendra didn’t get up but.

I dialed each Corey and Caleb. Identical to earlier, their telephones stored ringing with none response from them.

I wasn’t left with a alternative.

Grabbing my jacket, I placed on my boots and headed out of the house. At this level, I hoped I might discover Noah at residence. One thing advised me he wasn’t the kind to celebration with folks.

No, he’s the kind to blackmail a woman into following him right into a darkish backroom after which forcing himself on her, I believed, clenching my fingers into tight fists.

Greater than him, I felt offended at myself. Why did his contact ignite my physique on fireplace? I ought to’ve hated having a man like him inside me, however I craved him like a deadly drug.

“Ugh!” I groaned and hailed a cab.

I didn’t surrender on continuously checking my telephone. My determined prayers remained unanswered all the best way to Brian’s residence. There was no response from Mother, Brian, Corey, or Caleb.

The cab left me on the entrance garden of the extravagant mansion. Taking a deep breath, I stalked ahead. The door main into the doorway corridor was left extensive open.

Coming into the room, I seemed round. The whole lot round me was nonetheless and quiet.

I debated whether or not to name Noah or simply verify if he was in his room.

After a couple of minutes of hesitation, I made a decision to verify his room. What was the purpose of calling if I used to be already right here?

I slowly made my means towards his room.

Standing exterior the door, I hesitated once more. All of the sudden, I heard his voice via the door. Coronary heart pounding closely, I leaned in to pay attention.

“…I’m glad the aircraft landed safely.” A second’s silence. “There’s no want. I don’t care what occurs to him and his silly spouse.”

I waited with bated breath, hoping I’d hear one thing helpful. Since he was speaking a couple of aircraft, it needed to be concerning the flight Mother and Brian had been on. At the least, I came upon there was no crash and that they had been protected.
