Chapter 22

On the fiftieth day since Maeve’s disappearance, Donte still had not received any information about

her whereabouts.

The gossip about them spread like wildfire on the internet, but all of it was discussing past conflicts, and no one dug up Maeve’s whereabouts.

Donte’s determination to find her was also worn away by the relentless passage of time.
