Landon stepped out of the car, his complexion pallid, his eyes emanating a chilling intensity. In the glow of the car’s headlights, a menacing glint flickered in his gaze.

“Where’s Lauren? Does anyone have any updates?” Landon’s eyes widened in desperation as he spoke, his voice cracking from the strain on his dry, cracked lips. His throat felt hoarse, each word a struggle to utter.

Jasper noticed everything, feeling an unspeakable pain gripping his heart.

Witnessing Landon’s successive blows, he understood that despite his outward appearance, Landon was likely on the verge of an emotional collapse.
