Lily Halstead Book 3 (Last Book)

Chapter 27

I hang up the phone and felt my heart beat faster with every second. I had the think of every work she had just said. He was alive, Elijah was alive. But he was with family? I tried to think a few minutes and tried to figure out what it meant. I can back to my senses and remember that I was sitting in the car. I put the car in drive and drove to the station and talk to someone. I couldn't get their any faster it felt as I was going slower and slower with every moment. I wanted to get there now but I was at least 20 minutes away and I had traffic I had to get through. "I have to call Connor." I thought of he would get worried.

I picked up the phone to dial his number. Then I remembered I had him in my contacts. I clicked his name and put the phone on speaker. "Hello." He said. I took a deep breath before speaking. "He's alive Connor." Was the first thing that came out of my mouth the first thing that came to mind to say. "What?" He questioned. "Elijah ,Connor he's alive." It went silent for a moment I think he was processing what I was saying. "Connor!" I said. "How do you know?" He questioned. "I'll tell later I'm at the station." I click the phone off and parked to car quickly and ran into the station. Sargent Trudy was standing in behind the desk like she always was. "Lily." She said as I came in practically running in. "Hi, I'm looking for Jay or Adam." I said going up stairs where they are.

"Jay!" Kim , Alvin and Hank was standing at one desk talking. "Lily?" Hank said looking concerned. "He's alive Hank." I said almost out of breath I hadn't realized I was breathing shallow while walking/running. "What? Who?" Alvin stood straight and walked over behind Hank. "Lily?" Jay walked behind me and Adam was behind him. " its Elijah. He's alive." Jay had me sit in one of the chairs. "Come on take a seat. Know slowly from the beginning." I took a deep breath wanting to quickly get the breath out and tell them. I told them everything. Everything what Ray's mom said. I looked at Jay and Adam. They looked at one another. "Lily this may be the way she is getting you back. She may be playing you and giving you false hope. We have been looking for him for weeks and since it's getting close to his birthday this would be the best way to get to you." I stood up and got into Jays face. "No, he's alive Jay. I know it I'm his mother I promise you he is alive." Jay stepped forward placing a hand on my shoulder "Lily come on let's go home." I moved my shoulder to get his hand off of me. "How dare you! Your just giving up. What kind of family are you?" Adam came up and so did Kim. "Lily, there hadn't been anything nothing to go on." With tears I tasked " why is it so easy for you all to simply give up? I know he is alive and I guess I will have to find him my self."

"No, we will keep looking Lily but I will not give you hope. But I will not give up on him." Hank said .  I walked out of the station with anger and ready to see Connor. I had to get to Connor. I will find my son if it's the death of me.
