River didn't entertain him any further and quickly left with Victor as soon as the elevator reached the basement.
Ian Sanders took small steps forward, a lazy smile on his face.
"Run as far away from me as you can, Dr. River Johnson. But eventually, you are going to come back to me."

It had been two weeks. Kiara had come home β well, if you could call the new safe house with hella lot of security home.
But Alessia was still missing. She had told Kiara and Davis that she would be back within the hour but she has been missing for half a month.
Mateo and Leonardo had ordered complete lockdown for River, the twins, Michelia and Lorenzo. But Michelia screamed her way into getting the stuff that she would need to help them with her cyber abilities.
River was becoming increasingly antsy. She wanted to help out but she didn't know how. She was an orthopedic surgeon and a fighter. She knew very well that Mateo was not going to let her anywhere near an actual gun fight and she could not do much helping with casualties without the equipment available at the hospital. She felt completely useless and that was not a feeling she especially liked.
Not to mention, the woman she saw as her own sister was nowhere to be found. And the stupid detective gnawing at the back of her mind.
Nothing was looking up.
"Stop overthinking... to the point that you don't even realize someone else has entered your room." River looked up to see Mateo was home. Mateo was HOME.
"Any news about Sia?" River really couldn't care any less about how the fight was going. Obviously, she wanted it to end and none of them to get hurt but Alessia really mattered to her. Maybe as much as Sebastian mattered.
Mateo sighed and hugged her.
"We will find her."
River's shoulders slumped but she welcomed the much-needed embrace.
"Where are the twins?" He asked.
"Upstairs." She said. "Davis, Victor and George are teaching them to swim."
Mateo pouted. "I wanted to be the person to teach them all of that. It's a father's duty."
River rolled her eyes. And her man-child was back.
"You are doing great as a father." She rubbed his arms. "Except for the times when you act like a dick." She added. Truth is truth.
"But I thought you loved my dick." He winked, snaking his arms around her waist. His usual smirk was in place, none of the stress from a minute ago visible on his face.
River rolled her eyes again. And the cocky flirt was also back. She wondered how he was able to compartmentalize all his emotions like this. She was also good at the same art but he was a freaking master at it without even knowing it.
"Let's go to the kids." She said. "Who knows when you will be coming home next."
