Alex's gaze looked blank as he tried to fight the panic that was slowly making its presence known.
How was it possible? Why must it be so? He loathed himself just thinking about what she must have seen.
Recalling how that old witch snuggled into his body, he could feel his skin crawl in disgust.
It didn't help that the said witch was his beloved's mother. Her words echoed in his brain.
Those very hateful and heartbreaking insults she showered onto her daughter.
He couldn't move for what felt like an eternity. That was until one of his men came knocking at the door.
He looked up at the man who stood respectfully waiting for an order. " Stop searching! It's gone already. We were too late."
The man saluted but before he could leave, the security system went off. Alex stood up walking out of the room, the frame and note in his hand.
His heavy footsteps moved towards the monitoring room where the technicians just discovered a glitch.
