The Last Chapter Of Her Life.

Owen would not have believed that something had indeed happened to Leonica if he hadn't spotted her phone, broken on the ground of the location she had sent him.

As he picked it up and examined it, it was clear to him that she had in fact not dropped the phone, like he bad hopes for. Rather someone had deliberately stepped on it, putting a pretty shoe sized hole through the screen. "Fuck," He cursed as he placed the phone in his pocket and then scanned the area, trying to see if there were any tracks, any signs of where Leonica might have gone.

He didn't know how long he spent, but in the end, he found none, and that only fueled the panic growing inside of him.

Realizing that he going in circles wasn't going to help him out, he decided to finally involve the police. Luckily, he remembered the name of the officer Leonica had told him about, so when he called the station, he simply asked for her. "Hi, um, I would like to speak to Candace Lane?"

"Agent Lane would be with you shortly, please hold." The customer service said.

Once again, Owen wasn't sure how long he waited, running his hand through his hair and cursing the fact that he had chosen today of all days to leave Leonica alone.

He should have been more alert. He should have turned down Alistair job call, he should have stayed, then he was a hundred percent sure none of this would have happened.

"Officer Candace Lane on the line, how can I help you, Sir?"

The voice of the officer he wanted to speak with had snapped Owen out of his little world.

"This is Owen Lee," He stated, wishing that Candace would know who he was to Leonica.

Thankfully, she did. "Ms. Romero's Fiancé, correct?"

He nodded even though she couldn't see him.

"How may I help you sir?"

"It's Leonica, I think something happened to her. We were texting a few hours back but then she suddenly stopped and sent me her location, I called but the moment I was able to get through to her, the line was suddenly disconnected, not getting to the location, I find her phone destroyed and she's no where to be found." Owen explained as quick as possible.

"...i see. Mr. Lee, please hold on for a second while I get my partner." The tone in her voice as she said this suggested that she knew something Owen didn't.

Regardless of, he agreed. "Alright."

As he began yet another wait, Owen researched the road, trying to see if he could see any clue leading to where Leonica had been taken or hopefully ran off to. He was just about giving up when he turned around and a glint from one of the branches caught his eye. He squinted his eyes, trying to get a better look at the object before approaching it.

'This...' He thought, as be carefully plucked the object which he discovered to be a jewelry, off the branch and examining it. His heart sank the moment he realized it was the same necklace he had gifted Leonica on Ashley's birthday.

"Mr. Lee, my partner, Chief Roberts is here with me, would you please repeat what you told me?" Candace voice suddenly spoke in the phone, pulling Owen's attention away from the necklace. "Of course, officer."

"Alright, please tell us everything you told me, again."
