Months later

Two months went by in the blink of an eye. It was a blessing that Asher left that night because after he left there was an attack and the whole apartment was set on fire.

By the time reapers reached, everything was burnt to ground including Crystal's belongings.

In these two months the Reapers were managed by Ivan and Alec.

Everyone in Reapers silently agreed that Crystal went on a vacation and she is alive and well.

Because they never found a body in the debris that matched Crystal. So they just settled on the thought that their boss was on a vacation and were waiting for her patiently.

In those months Ivan changed. He and Alec were managing the Reapers professionally but their brotherhood went through a rough stage.

Ivan's childish side was buried with Crystal and only the worst side of him remained.

He became the most ruthless and worst leader taking The Reapers to different heights making it strong enough to welcome Crystal back.
