A/N: This story takes place 4 days after Betty wakes up meaning she's been with Jughead for the total of 7 days.


Charles POV:

4 Days later

"They said you needed to speak to me?" Asks Captain Lodge as she walks into my office closing the door behind her.

I look up at her as she takes a seat "Why did you choose Betty for this case?" I ask her going straight to the point. My sister is dead, so I'm not about to beat around the Bush. I don't care if she's my boss.

Lodge looks at me with a raise eyebrow and an unreadable expression but she doesn't seem startled just confused "Charles, you know why" she says

"Just because of Jason's death?" I quickly respond in anger. I clench my jaw and tighten my fists that are laid on my table waiting for her answer.

"What, No? If anything I wanted to keep her off of it up until-" She says but then all of a sudden she stayed silent as if she were thinking of what to say or maybe thinking about what not to say? 

"Until what?" I ask her but she doesn't respond making me anxious as to what she fucking knows about Betty and how she got involved into this case. I take a breather and close my eyes and try asking again. "Captain Lodge I'm about to bury my baby sister on Saturday so I'm really not trying to loose my patience so please tell me what you were going to say?" I ask her looking at her straight into the eyes hoping she'll respond but instead she quickly stands up and hurries out of my office leaving me speechless but I don't think twice about it and quickly stand up walking after her. She knows something and I'm going to find out what that is even if I have to torture her for it.


Veronica POV:

Many questions have been flowing into my mind ever since the day Jughead took Betty. What did he mean by everything he told me? What was he going to do to her? I was afraid for my friend, afraid for the woman I grew so fond of. I get snapped out of my thoughts when Hiram one of Jugheads business associates sits down beside me handing me a pictures, not just any picture but a pictures of the same little girl with pigtails that's photographed with Jughead. I look at the picture for a few more seconds then look up Hiram who has his eyes on me.

"What's this?" I ask him trying to act oblivious.

"Don't fuck with me right now Jones, you know exactly what that is and more importantly who she is" He responds in anger and desperation.

I take a sip out of my drink and smile lightly handing back the picture he gave me " Sorry but I have no idea what you are talking about" I then respond to him as I go to get up from my chair but I quickly get stopped when one of Hirams men sits me back down and places a knife on my neck making me widen my eyes in fear.

"I'm going to tell you a story Jones." He says as he unbuttons his suit jacket.

"Sorry to burst your bubble but I'm not in a mood for a bedtime story" I say to him making the man holding the knife press it more into my skin making me wince.

Hiram chuckles and looks back at me "Didn't ask you. About 27 years ago my wife, well my now ex-wife and I welcomed a beautiful baby girl. She was the light that I needed in my fucked up life but you see when my baby girl turned 7 *poof* she just vanished, gone." He says with a broken voice.

"Maybe you should have watched her better" I huff out sarcastically earning a slap from Hiram. "You have no idea what the fuck you're talking about. My little girl was everything to me and when I lost her, the day I lost her was the day I lost my way. I'd given up hope since no one could tell me where she is or who she was with up until a certain blonde came walking into this club." He says looking at me straight in the eyes making me even more confused but intrigued as to what he's trying to say.

"You're talking about Betty?" I ask him

"Obviously. You see when my little girl was born and I looked into her beautiful green eyes I always knew that no matter what happened I would know." He continues while looking at me straight into the eye leaving me confused as to how Betty fits into all of this.

"Ok but what does your daughter have to do with Betty?" I ask him through the astonishing pain the man gripping onto me with a knife is causing me.

Hiram chuckles and turns around giving me his back letting out a breath that he probably didn't even know he was holding "Because Veronica, Betty and my daughter are the same person. Betty is my daughter and I want her back.

What the fuck.
