Lucian's POV
I knew something was wrong the moment I woke up.
Aria hadn't answered my calls all morning. Her phone went straight to voicemail. And when I drove to Moonvale, Leah told me she'd gone to meet someone at an old warehouse and hadn't come back.
"How long ago?"
"Three hours." Leah looked worried. "She was supposed to text me when she got there. She never did."
"Did she say who she was meeting?"
"No. Just that someone had information about Damon."
Of course it was about Damon. It was always about Damon.
I called Mateo. "Aria's missing. Again."
"Are you f**king kidding me?"
"I wish I was. Meet me at Moonvale. We need to find her before Damon does something stupid."
Mateo arrived within twenty minutes. We coordinated with Derek and Leah, split up search teams, and started looking.
