I feel as my anger starts rising to the surface. I know what Brian said, but I still haven’t
ruled out Reaper
from my list of suspects.
I mean, come the F*** on, he had Ava kidnapped. You just don’t do that unless you have
an ulterior mative. Plus, what Brian says just doesn’t make sense. Why would he kidnap
her and then force me to
make a decision if he really didn’t want her to get hurt?
“What the F*** are you doing here?” I snarl at him.
His eyes sweep over me to the rest. They’ve all stood up in guard, but that doesn’t seem
to faze him at all.
One thing that makes Reaper really dangerous is the fact that he was maniac. Sure, I am
cold, but Reaper takes that to a whole new level. He is a sociopath and a psychopath, all
wrapped in a pretty ugly and deadly bow.
“I’m here to see, Ava. Why else do you think I would be here? To see your sorry ass?” he
asks with a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdevious smirk.
I grind my teeth, willing myself not to start a fight in a F***ing hospital. It would be the
sure way kicked out, and I couldn’t have that.
“And you honestly think we believe that? Gabe asks him. “You kidnapped her a few
months ago.”
to get
He turns those deadly eyes towards my brother. I’m not easily fazed, but Reapers eyes
radiate a kind of coldness that had you feeling chills down your spine.
His eyes were dead and cold. Almost like the man didn’t have a F***ing soul. Maybe he
didn’t. Who the F*** knows anyway?
“I personally don’t care what the F*** you think because I am not here for any of you.” he
doesn’t lose his composure at all. “Now are you going to tell me how she is or should I find
her doctor myself?”
His condescending tone, not to mention his attitude was grating on my nerves. I don’t
even understand what he is doing here in the first place.
“Why would we tell you that? For all we know, you’re the bastard that put a hit on her” I
tell him through clenched
He stares at me with wide eyes, before throwing his head back and laughing. It rings off
the walls of the waiting room, leaving goosebumps all over my skin.
He suddenly stops and his gaze fixes on me.
“Trust me, if I wanted Ava dead, she’d be dead” he says in that same icy tone.
“Then if you’re not the one responsible, then why are you here? I don’t really see how her
health is any of
your concern” Nora speaks.
His gaze leaves mine before it sweeps over the rest. They finally rest on someone behind
me. I slowly turn to check who he was looking at. It’s Corrine.
He lingers there for a while. He looks enraptured while Corrine looked like she couldn’t
keep her eyes of him. He finally pulls his gaze away with what I am damn sure is great
difficulty.
Interesting.
He focuses on Nora. “Well she’s carrying my niece, of course I will be concerned about
her”
He delivers the line smoothly, but leaves us shocked.
The man must be delusional or something. There is no way I just heard him right. How the

be the baby’s uncle. I don’t think he is related to Ava in anyway. Unless he’s a long lost
brother of hers.
“Th–that’s impossible” Letty stammers.
By Nora and Theo’s reaction, Reaper couldn’t be their son, so if he was telling the truth
then he is related.
to the baby some other way.
I study him and that’s when it clicks.
“You’re Ethan’s brother” I announce as the similarities ring in my head.
“Bingo”
“But how?” Nora whispers. “When we adopted Ethan we were told that he had no family
left”
“I was in juvie then, word got back to me from one of my father’s men that Ethan was in
foster care. I told them to mess with his records so that it seemed like our dad was the
only family he had.” He pauses. Like I told Ava, I wanted him to have a chance at a normal
life. So that’s what I gave him. I didn’t want him to turn out a criminal”
“And yet he still ended up in prison,” I tell him sarcastically.
He laughs, but this time it isn’t chilly. It’s sort of warm. If you can even call it that.
“Ava said the same damn thing”
We are quiet for a while until Theo speaks.
