Chapter 64

Elodie's POV

Kiernan rises from his chair the moment I walk in. His brows pull together as his eyes drop to the phone I’m holding out. The light from his desk lamp makes his expression sharper, the tension in his face impossible to miss.

“What happened?” he asks, his voice low.

I swallow hard, forcing the words out evenly. “They called again.”

His whole body goes still. “When?”

“Five minutes ago.”
