Even though she was filled with rage and her mind was racing the entire trip, each minute it took to get to the police station felt like an eternity. Finally, as she looked out the window of the passenger side of the vehicle, she saw their local police department coming into view. A moment later, Harper pulled the vehicle into a parking space, and they were both getting out of the car. Chloe was so angry she began marching directly toward the front door, and it wasn’t until she felt her best friend’s hand touch her shoulder that she realized what she must look like to the other officers walking in and out of the building.

Chloe didn’t care what anyone thought as long as Martin gave them the answers they were looking for. She wanted to know exactly what he had done with their daughter and where she could be found. There was no chance she was going to leave until she had those answers. Harper rushed around her and made it to the front door first, opening it for both of them but walking through before she could.

Immediately, she started to feel that anger starting to boil over when she saw her husband sitting just a few feet away from the front desk. Chloe realized the man was not in handcuffs and didn’t understand why he hadn’t been placed under arrest. She rushed toward Martin, who reared back in fear before she felt a pull from behind. She spun around to see it was Harper who was holding her back.

“Why the hell is he not in handcuffs? He kidnapped our daughter, and no one is going to do anything about it?” Chloe seethed.

“You said you would let me handle this. Now, let me do that.”

“I just don’t understand what is going on. Is the system so corrupt they are just going to let him get away with whatever he wants?”

Harper sighed. “I’m sure there is a good reason he hasn’t been placed under arrest. Let me get a little information before we assume anything.”

Chloe knew her friend was right, but the only thing she wanted to do was wrap her hands around her husband’s neck and strangle the life out of him. She took a deep breath and sighed before marching back to the other side of the room and taking a seat in one of the chairs, glaring toward Martin. She could feel the rage inside of her starting to grow slowly, and it wasn’t until she spotted Mike coming from one of the offices in the back that she started to calm down. There was something about being in the man’s presence that just calmed her, and she had no idea why.

Mike stopped and spoke to Harper for a moment, but Chloe couldn’t hear what he was saying. Chloe was just about to stand up and make her way over to where the two were talking when he raised a finger, telling her to hold on for just a moment.
