Because of everything that had happened, Sierra no longer had the heart to keep working. She simply left with Johnathan and the others.
On the way, she kept checking her phone, hoping Dora would call again.
But her phone never rang.
Meanwhile, Stone’s men searched every spot Mateo had marked, but they still couldn’t find her. What they did find was the cloned license plate car.

Everyone knew–the longer this dragged on, the more dangerous it became for the child.

“In there.”
“We checked her over. Severe dehydration–no food, no water. Combined with significant blood loss, that’s why she’s still unconscious. No other injuries found, but there are injection marks on her arm.
What did they want with her blood?
