This chapter contains mention of sexual trauma/rape, sharp object, and physical abuse that may be upsetting for some readers. Please proceed at your own risk or you can skip to the next chapter.
Steven's POV
While I was dragging Heather's unconscious body to the basement, I heard something from the pocket of her jacket. I drop her arm and pull out her phone before turning it on and it looks like she received a text message from... ugh, Edward.
Oh, Aurora's pathetic little boyfriend. And it looks like she didn't have a password on her phone which makes things easy for me.

You: I'm sneaking out, on my way to Aurora's house to apologize.
12:14 amEdward: Can you ask her if she wants to meet up with the detective later? She's not answering her phone.
You: She's not in her house... I asked one of her neighbors earlier and they said she was at the hospital with her family.
Edward: What happened? Is Aurora okay?
You: I don't know. But they said her Mom got injured or something. How about you check up on her there? I'm heading back to my house.
Edward: You don't want to come along? I'm on the way to the hospital with the detective.
You: No, I don't want to pressure her. Anyways, I have a curfew.

Edward's POV
We arrived at the hospital and we manage to find a parking spot.
Detective Brian stops the engine and we head out of his car before walking into the emergency room.
"She'll be fine, Mr. Anderson." When I heard that name, I turn around and I saw a man thanking the doctor. He might be Aurora's stepdad.
I tap Detective Brian's shoulder and I point my finger at Aurora's stepdad.
"I think that's Aurora's stepdad, his name is Mr. Anderson," I whispered.
He nodded and slowly walk towards him.
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Anderson?" He asked and the man look surprised.
"Yes. Can I help you?" He said.
"I'm Detective Brian. And I'm working on a case of your stepdaughter, Aurora." He said. "And this is-"
"You're Edward. Right?" Mr. Anderson asked.
"Yes sir," I said.
