She stood there, small and fragile. Those big brown eyes stared up at me not in shock or fear but very peaceful and calm.
Far too calm for everything that was happening.
There was something else in her gaze—something that told me she already knew what was going through my mind.
Her lips trembled as if she wanted to say something but wasn’t quite sure what to say.
However, she didn’t look scared.
Not of me.
Not of this situation.
In fact, she looked. . .intrigued.
I lowered my fists and scanned the room fast. That was when terror replaced my frustration. “Where’s Moni, TT?”
She fidgeted with the edge of her shirt. “Moni went through the secret passage with Uncle Song and Uncle Leo.”
Noooooo. What the fuck does that mean?

My stomach dropped.
I stumbled backward. “The secret what? This was my. . .old room. There’s no. . .”
TT shrugged. “There’s a secret passage.”
Desperation clawed at my inside.
Damn it!
I entered the room. “Which way? Where is it at?”
She stepped aside, lifted her small hand, and pointed to the far end of the room, where the closet door stood ajar. “There’s a secret passageway in there. They went through it.”
“What the fuck?”
Fen remained out in the hallway with our men, while Duck, Hu, and I moved into the big closet fast tearing the clothes off the hangers, shoving everything out of the way.
The back wall of the closet looked solid just like any other closet but TT had said there was a passageway.
I trusted her, even if it looked impossible.
Hu knocked and I caught the hollow sound.
Yeah. The bastard had a secret place in my old closet.How long had it been there?
The thought gnawed at me making my skin crawl.
For a minute, I wondered if my father ever used it to spy on me as a kid. I could see him standing in there to listen to my phone calls with Chanel, Romeo, or even Dima, probably making sure I was still on the path he wanted me on.
What the fuck is wrong with him?
