Chapter 87: Theo

We rushed back to the packhouse. Nearly the entire police force was out searching for Amy. I didn’t expect it would be hard to find her. She likely didn’t think we suspected her yet. But I had something else to address first.

I made my way straight to my apartment. I paused at the door to push Kieran back again. He was pacing frantically in my head. I entered the apartment and found the living room and kitchen empty. I heard voices coming from down the hall and found Ayla with her mother and sister in our bed, deep in conversation. I cleared my throat to get their

attention.

“Can I borrow Kylee for a moment, please?” I asked tightly.

“Um, sure,” Kylee said tentatively. “I’ll be right back.”

Kylee left the room and I looked back at Ayla. I wanted to ask her how she was doing more than anything at that moment. But I didn’t think she was ready. The strange look she was giving me didn’t help to change that feeling. I couldn’t read its meaning, but I could see the oceans of pain in her eyes. I knew seeing me was hurting her. So, I left without another word.

Kylee was waiting in the living room for me.

“What did you…”

I grabbed her arm roughly and started hauling her towards the door, ignoring her protests, I dragged her down the hall to an empty room and threw her inside, closing the door behind me.
