It took me no more than a minute to throw my things together and then I left April to collect her thoughts. She didn’t take the news about her stalker finding her well. I wanted so badly to comfort her, to hug her and never let go, but we don’t have time for that. I join Jessie and Cole in the parking lot to work out the best plan to protect April from the psycho that’s been after her. I have full visual of the room she’s in, packing her stuff. The note in the envelope threw me for a loop; I only told April a part of what it actually said—that he’ll find her no matter where she hides and that he’s never going to give up. It also says she needs to get rid of me because he can’t stand other men’s hands on her. It breaks his heart watching her with somebody that’s not him. It was supposed to be the two of them together forever as soulmates. He claims to forgive all her previous sins if only she surrenders to him. And I’m the one who’s going to burn if she doesn’t leave me behind, because I’m the only thing standing between them and their happiness. I got sick to my stomach when I read the note. Then I handed it over to the police when they arrived at the scene.

“How’s she holding up?” Jessie, my younger brother, asks.

“As well as she can, considering all that’s been happening.” I stick my hands in the pockets of my jeans. “Thanks for coming.”

“Don’t even mention it, you know we always have your back.”

“Everything okay back at her house?” It better be. We can’t stay here any longer.

“Yes,” Cole nods. Police have been surveilling the house for the past two days in case someone wanted to snoop around or enter the house. “It’s clear the stalker knows she’s not at home. How the hell did he manage to find you two?”

“I have no clue but I intend to find out,” I say firmly.

“We should get going. Go check on April, and we’ll wait for you in the car.” Cole opens his side of the car.

“Okay.”

When I reach the room, the door is closed and the light is still on. “April, are you done? It’s time for us to go,” I say as I knock on the door. I check the clock, wait a moment, but I get no answer. “April?” I ask again before entering. The room is empty and tidied up, so I check the bathroom. “April, you in there? I’m coming in.” No sign of her. “April!” I call, my jaw clenched. “Shit.” Her luggage is gone and the room is void of anything that could insinuate she was even here, except for the faint scent of her lovely floral perfume that still lingers in the room. So much for promising to do as I say. “Fuck.” I hiss and run outside. I look left and right; April’s nowhere in sight.
