Annick woke up hearing soft knocks on the bedroom door.

She sat up, seeing it was still dark out.

She glanced down at Randy who was still asleep with Elijah, who had refused to go to sleep if without him, cuddled up beside him.

The knocks were a little louder so she got up to go open the door.

When she did, she saw Daysia who didn't look too happy.

"I'm kind of freaking out right now." She whispered.

"What's wrong?"

"First, lock the balcony door and shut your blinds and the windows. After that, meet me downstairs." She said before walking away.

Annick did what she was instructed to do and quietly walked down the stairs to see Daysia pacing back and  forth.

"What happened?"

Daysia just handed Annick her phone.

When she scrolled through, all she saw were messages from an unknown number.

Unknown: I miss you

Unknown: you look so beautiful sleeping

Unknown: such a shame that all of you guys are so carefree...

Unknown: you can't even close your blinds

Unknown: I see Annick and her boyfriend...that's not their baby, is it?

Unknown: but he's adorable

Unknown: be a shame if anything happened to him

Those were all the messages he had sent at the time.

But before she could say anything to Daysia, he sent another one.

Unknown: you closed all the blinds except for the one in the girl's room

Unknown: she's been spending her time in there for a while

Unknown: it's as if I could take her right now and you wouldn't even notice

Before Annick knew what she was doing, she dropped Daysia's phone and sprinted down the hall to Pricilla's room, bursting in.

She switched on the lights making Pricilla sit up in her bed.

Annick glanced over at her window which was wide open.

She immediately shut it, locking it and closing the blinds.

"Pricilla, do not ever open this window, you understand me?"

"Why?"

"I do not have time for questions right now."

Daysia came into the room.

"What should we do?"

"We need to wake up the boys."

"But-"

Annick put her hands on Daysia's shoulders and looked at her sternly.

"We need to wake up the boys."

Daysia sighed nodding.

"What do you mean, don't go out there? I need to kick his ass!" Jeffery exclaimed.

"Jeffery, you don't know what he could have." Daysia said.

The three heard footsteps come down the stairs and Randy appeared with Elijah in his arms.

"What is going on down here? Jeffery, you woke up Elijah."

From down the hall came Quinton.

"All this yelling though." He shook his head.

"Randy put him back in your room or something, we all need to go out there."

"No! Don't leave him alone in there. I don't know what Troy is capable of."

Quinton stepped in.

"What do you mean, what he's capable of? Ain't nobody gonna hurt my son."

Quinton took the baby from Randy and went back to bed.

"If he's doing all this, I wonder what else he's doing? Jesus, what if he goes after our families?" Jeffery said.

"Look, he's crazy but he can never get that information." Daysia said.

"Yeah....he can." Annick spoke up.

"Are you okay?" Randy asked her.

"No, it was...it was when I went to go visit my brothers. Emmanuel's doorman said that Troy came in there with a picture of me, asking him questions."

"And you're just telling us now?" Jeffery said, getting more upset.

"I didn't think it mattered."

"Everything matters!"

"Jeffery, stop yelling at her, okay?" Randy said.

"Well if he's stalking her too and she does nothing about it, last times incident will replay." Jeffery shot back.

"Why are you acting like that was her fault? If you hadn't of left alone, he wouldn't of caught her in a vulnerable position."

"Yeah, it's always me. I'm always the bad guy."

"Can we just stop! Look, I'm sorry I didn't tell anyone. That was stupid. But that's not what we need to think about. Now Troy has been invading our privacy and digging into our lives."

"So...?"

"We need to do the same to him."

"How are we gonna do that?" Jeffery asked.

"Wait, he has a wife." Daysia said.

They all turned to her.

"For real? Who the fuck would marry him?" Annick asked.

"He puts on a good act. I know that from dating him."

"Well how can we get information on her?"

"We have to find someone who wouldn't mind digging in for us."

"Who would do that?"

"I think I know someone."

A/N: tbh I don't even know who this someone is😐 I'd ask you guys for ideas but I know I'd get no response☕️
