Asli watched everything unfold.
Her heart sank.
"Emir…" she whispered.
He couldn't meet her eyes.
"I'm sorry."
But sorry wasn't enough.
Not in this world.
Ferhat stepped forward.
Slow.
Controlled.
Deadly.
"You brought them to her," he said quietly.
Emir swallowed hard. "I didn't know they'd go that far—"
"They kidnapped her."
Silence.
Heavy.
Final.
