I stand in front of the mirror, watching as Lisa adjusts the delicate lace on my wedding dress.

Cass isn't here. I know something's wrong, but I've told them all that her flight has been delayed and she should be here by the end of the day. I wish that were true.

I try to smile as Anne walks over, handing me a glass of champagne. "You're getting married," she says softly, her eyes gleaming with happiness. "You should be smiling."

"Thanks, Anne, I'm very happy," I lie, lifting the glass to my lips and taking a small sip, trying to settle the nervous flutter in my chest.

The kids are running around the room, Bobby has come up to visit, so I know Jayden and his groomsmen are down there waiting.

Bobby is chasing Sarah and Abby with a bubble gun, meant to be for them to make bubbles for us to walk through once the service is done.

Cass. I should've told Jayden, and I will, but I need to know more.

I've tried to keep myself from losing it, but it's getting harder. There were no flights from Cancun last night or this morning. I left a message for Gus.

I even contacted the local police, and they said Cass reported her bag stolen on Thursday night.

Her passport, ID, everything. Her phone. But how can that be? I got a message from her since then. I've sent the local police to her hotel, but they haven't found her yet. And Gabriel? No one knows where he is. I need to go and tell Jayden. Right now.

"Winona, breathe," Lisa's voice pulls me from my spiral She's standing in front of me, her hands resting on my shoulders, concern etched across her face. "You're tense. You're pale. What's going on?" "I'm fine," I say automatically. "Just... pre-wedding jitters."

She narrows her eyes. "What's really going on?"

Cass's name flash on the screen. Finally. Relief floods through me, and I nearly drop the phone in my haste to answer
