Chapter 11 - Surprises
Emma was waiting in the doorway when Cass got home. "Did you find her?" Emma's voice was filled with fear and anger. She looked around Cass searching for Olivia. "No." Cass walked past Emma and poured herself a glass of whiskey. She gulped the liquid down hoping it would warm her frozen body. "Where is she, Cass?" "I don't know." "You don't know?" Emma asked. "You don't know?" Her voice rose and she stalked toward Cass. Vance grabbed her arm and held her back. "You go back out there, and you find her!" Micheal stepped forward when Emma pulled free of Vance and took a couple of steps toward Cass. Cass held up her hand to him and he relaxed. "You chased her out of the safety of our home, and into the fucking lions' den! You go out and find her, or I will!" "You leave this house and I will have you locked up so fast your head will spin!" Cass said dangerously quietly. "I will find her. I came home to grab a shower and food, then I am going right back out there." "Food? You can thin

Chapter 12 - Broken
Cass jumped out of the car before Pedro could pull to a full stop. She heard him calling her and ignored him. He could catch up or wait in the car, she needed to get to Olivia.

And if you would take a second to think, you will realize that." He bent and checked the handle, then ran his flashlight up and down the door frame. "It looks clean." "Fine, step aside," Cass ordered. "Pedro don't make me kick your ass. I need to get in there!" "Okay." Pedro nodded and reached for the door himself, blocking her with his body.

Chapter 13 - Losses
Cass wore a hole outside her bedroom door as she waited, she'd been kicked out when she'd told the doctor for the hundredth time to be careful. Now Emma was with Olivia, taking care of her. She was aware that Emma blamed her, and also very aware that she was to blame. She hoped Pedro was doing his job and doing it well, she needed to find the bastards, she needed to take the revenge demanded now. Nothing else mattered to her. If she lost everything making them pay, then so be it. She'd put Olivia in the position to be taken, but her father was the one who'd ordered the hit on his own flesh and blood. She'd leave him for last. "The Chief is here," Vance said from the stairs. "He's pissed to have been dragged out this late." "I don't care about that." Cass snapped. She took one last look at her bedroom door and turned away. The last person Olivia would want to see was her. "Tell Em to stay with her. I'll sleep in one of the spare rooms." "I think she might need you." "I'm the last m
