“I think I have something you want,” Helena wickedly teased.

AJ swallowed hard, trying to push down his fear and concentrate on getting his son back. “Where is he?”

Carly jumped up, trying to wrestle him for the phone. Kristina interceded, calming her down so AJ could talk.

“Your son is safe, for now,” Helena informed him.

“I’m coming to see you,” he growled into the phone. “And I’ll wring your neck if you don’t tell me where to find Michael.”

“You’ll have to find me first,” Helena purred. “Stefan’s men weren’t so successful in returning me to that steel cage.”

She was out. Free. And she had his son. AJ’s mind was reeling with the news. “Why are you doing this?” he demanded.

Helena cackled. “I thought you would have figured that out by now. Kristina belongs to me,” she announced. “I want her back. When you return her to me, I will return your boy to you.”

AJ turned to stare at Kristina – his love, his future.

His torn expression said it all. Kristina closed her eyes and let out a heavy sigh. “Make the deal, AJ. My freedom doesn’t matter. I’ll never be free from her anyway.”

What happens next?
AJ tells Helena to go to hell and tries to come up with another plan.
AJ tells Helena she has a deal - he and Kristina go to meet her.
