"Winona!" I scream into the phone again, but there's only silence. The screen is dark, it's silent. She isn't answering.

"Goddammit, Winona!" I shout, "answer me! Be okay. Answer me..."

"Are you fucking kidding me?" I scream, slamming the phone onto the counter so hard it bounces off and hits the floor.

Fuck! It's totaled now.

My chest tightens, panic squeezing my throat. How can I call him, how can I contact Jayden? I grab my jacket and bolt out the door, running as fast as my legs will carry me to the estate. Viktor. He has a another number, one that always gets answered. My lungs are bursting as I run full tilt for the estate, but I don't care. I smash through the estate doors, the staff stop and stare.
