Chapter 15 - Broken Reality

Chapter 15:

Amidst the chaos that had erupted at the anniversary celebration, Alexander's instincts kicked into overdrive. The explosions had sent shockwaves through the venue, shattering the atmosphere of joy and celebration. His first priority was to ensure the safety of the attendees and his colleagues, guiding them to safety amidst the panic and chaos.

As he navigated through the turmoil, Alexander's eyes scanned the surroundings for any sign of Emily. Fear gripped his heart as he realized that she was nowhere in sight. A sense of unease settled over him, his mind racing through the possibilities.

And then, his eyes fell on something that made his heart sink even further—Emily's purse lay abandoned on the floor, its contents scattered. Panic surged through him as he knelt down to pick it up, his fingers trembling as he realized that she had been here moments ago.

He tried to contact her, his calls going unanswered. Dread tightened its grip on his chest, and he knew that something was horribly wrong. With the chaos around him, he felt a chilling realization settle in—Emily was missing.

As he continued to guide the guests to safety, his mind raced through the options. He needed to find Emily, to ensure her safety. The fragments of the evening's events began to piece together—a calculated attack that had been designed to create chaos and distract.

And then, his phone rang—a call from an unknown number. He answered it, his voice tense as he spoke into the receiver. "Who is this?"

A cold chuckle echoed on the other end. "You're looking for someone, aren't you, Alexander?"

The voice was chillingly familiar—it was Damon. Alexander's grip on the phone tightened, his pulse quickening. "What have you done?"

Damon's tone was taunting, his words laced with a disturbing mix of satisfaction and cruelty. "I thought you might want to see something."

A picture message arrived on Alexander's phone, and his heart stopped as he saw the image on the screen. It was Emily, her face etched with fear, bound and gagged in an unfamiliar location. The realization hit him like a blow—Emily had been kidnapped.

"What do you want?" Alexander's voice was laced with anger and desperation.

Damon's laughter echoed through the phone. "Oh, Alexander, you're finally starting to realize the gravity of the situation. Let's just say I have some demands, and I'm sure you'll be eager to meet them."

Alexander's mind raced, his thoughts a whirlwind of fear and determination. He couldn't let Damon's twisted game control him, but Emily's safety was paramount. He needed to find her, to confront Damon, and to put an end to this nightmare.

"Damon, if you've harmed her..." Alexander's voice was a low growl, his resolve firm.

Damon's voice remained eerily calm. "Oh, don't worry. She's alive, for now. But you have a choice to make, Alexander. You can save her—or you can watch as everything you've built crumbles."

With those ominous words, the call ended, leaving Alexander with a sense of urgency and a pounding in his chest. The chaos around him seemed to fade into the background as he stared at the image of Emily, bound and vulnerable. He knew that the path ahead was treacherous, and the stakes were higher than ever.
