His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Eliza clung to Brock, her eyes glued to the van as it sped away. She knew she needed to remember the faces of those criminals. The windows were heavily tinted, but just as the vehicle turned the corner, sunlight pierced through, revealing a face. Was that... Nova?

Nova was supposed to be dead. Dillon had assured her of that, and Dillon never lied. Was her mind playing tricks on her?

"Is Brock okay?" Aaron asked, coming over and gently ruffling Brock's hair. "Those people have some nerve." "Aaron, we need to head back home."

"Sure."

On the drive home, Eliza held Brock close, her heart still pounding from the ordeal. She couldn't shake the uneasy feeling.

Aaron glanced over at her. "Could it be one of Casper's enemies?"

"Don't mention it. Ever since Brock fell into the sea last time, I've felt awful. I just hope you can forgive me."

Eliza gave a faint smile. "It's all in the past."
