John turned to them, heaving heavily, his fists clenched at his sides. "He has gone too far this time," he said in a
tight, hard voice. "I don't care what it takes. | don't care what we have to do. We're must see our father."
Her mother let out a sob, wiping at her eyes with shaking fingers. "Why would he do this? Why would he keep
The sight of her pain, of her vulnerability, was the final straw.
James exhaled slowly, his expression hardening. "We need a plan."
Jeremy nodded. "First, we take Mom home. Then, we figure out our next move."
He'd made their mother cry. He'd made her restless, afraid.
That was unforgivable.
Whatever power play he was running, whatever ghe thought he was winning-he had just started a war.

Alexander's sleek black car pulled up to the VIP section of the hospital. The hum of its engine cutting through the
heavy silence that had settled between him and Emma. He stepped out, cradling Emily in his arms like she was

Another car pulled up alongside them, the doors swinging open almost immediately. Vivian stepped out first, her
usual poise shaken by the grave situation. She reached back in and pulled out Brianna, who had been eerily

Emma wiped at the tears already trickling down her cheeks, her breath coming in sharp gasps, she wanted to be
strong, needed to be strong. But watching her daughter grow weaker with every passing day had shattered
every piece of strength she thought she had. She had fought against the fevers, against the pain no child should
ever have to go through. Yet despite her brave little smiles and despite trying to reassure them in that sweet
voice of hers, Emma knew. Emily was exhausted.

A team of emergency staff pushed toward them carrying a stretcher, their expressions grim yet professional.
"We need to take her into care now," one of the doctors said as he reached toward Alexander to take Emily from
his arms.

close could somehow protect her from what was to come.
