"I CAN'T GET HOLD OF Waverly," Zariah says, standing in front of Alarick, the fire flickering over her pretty face and making her look even more beautiful.

"What do you mean you can't get hold of her?" Alarick asks, his eyes narrowing.

Zariah shakes her head. "It means exactly that, Alarick. I can't get hold of her. I've been trying for the last twenty-four hours. She had a 'date' with Dax, and since then, I've not been able to contact her."

Oh god.

This is not happening.

No.

"Are you sure she's still there and not just sleepin'?"

"I'm sure," Zariah nods. "She's not been home, I've checked. I'm worried something bad has happened to her."

"Listen, take it easy. Unless Dax has found out, which I highly doubt, she's probably just spent the night there or is meeting a potential buyer. Now isn't a time to overreact."

"How can I not overreact?" Zariah snaps. "She's my sister! I told her to find a way to call me, no matter what, and she hasn’t done that."

"Yeah, she is, but goin' off ain't goin' to fix anything," Alarick growls.

"We'll go for a drive past, scour around," Kendric says, standing. "Do the best we can to see if we can find her."

"Driving around isn't going to find her!" Zariah mutters to him. "She's not going to be just walking down the street."

"Listen, lady," Kendric growls. "I'm tryin' to help you out here."

"I don't want your damned help."

They're practically nose to nose now, glaring at each other. For the love of God, why are they bringing their little drama fest when we need to be worrying about Waverly right now?

She's the most important thing.

The most important.

"Calm down, you two," I say, standing and putting my hand on Kendric's chest to push him back. "This isn't about either of you, this is about Waverly. She's likely with Dax and hasn't been able to check-in. It can't hurt to do a drive around, and Zariah, I think you need to talk to Bennett. Not to ask questions, just to get a general idea if he's seen or heard from her."

"He won't tell me anything, I've already tried," Zariah exhales and runs her hand down her face. "I knew this would go bad. I knew he'd figure it out."

"Before anyone panics, we don't know if he's figured out anything. There are a million reasons why Waverly hasn't shown up, and not all of them are dark," Alarick throws in. "We'll get a team out to look for her now, and we'll do what we can to find her."

"There's somewhere else Dax goes," Merleigh says, her voice soft. "I went there a few times, stayed overnight. It's usually right before he sells you, or introduces you to the person he's selling you to..."

Everyone turns and looks to Merleigh.

"You remember where that is?" Alarick asks.

"Yes, I do. But you won't get in. It's fully secured. However, I did do overnight stays with Dax, and during them, our phones would be somewhere else, intentionally, no doubt. So, please don't panic about Waverly.
