DAMIEN
I return to the packhouse with a heavy heart. Yvonne and Emma join me in my office to discuss everything that has happened so far. But I don't have any words to spare, nor am I in the mood to discuss anything. My world has fallen apart, and I have no one to blame but myself.
Lyssa would have been with me if I had just believed, if I had just said that I would trust her.
Footsteps approach the office door, and Lucas walks in with a rigid expression. "We haven't found Ella yet," he reports.
I stare at the dark gray sky through the window and reply slowly, "I see."
"But I have launched a search team to find her. I am confident we'll get to her," he sounds angry, "I won't let go of someone who dares to hide such vital information from us," he spats.
"But you weren't very cooperative when Emma told us that Ella is lying," Yvonne intervenes, and I turn back towards them.
Lucas' brows knit as he stares at Yvonne, "What are you trying to imply here, Yvonne?"
