He Is Avoiding Me

Leilani

Nine whole days.

I had been discharged from the hospital.

But in these nine punishing days….

I had not set my eyes on Adonis, after that heart-rending moment when I had cried in his arms, sticky with blood and grime. Shivering from the cold. The pain. The fear. It all felt like yesterday. I had not seen nor heard from him since that day, and nobody was really talking about him.

They were all talking about how the police were vigorously searching for Tina. Now it was not just a one family battle. Tina had successfully angered the Giles family and all their powerful and influential friends, so resources have been put in, angry flames have been fanned into a blaze and Tina would burn in it. There has been a full-on search announced by the police for Tina, but so far, she had been silent and in hiding, probably nursing the grave wounds Chase inflicted on her.
