“Kris!” Luisa screamed when she opened her eyes to see Kris bleeding from his shoulder. She shot to her feet and rushed toward him. “Kris… are you okay?”

“Yes… I’m fine,” he muttered, brushing off her concern. “But you need to get behind the car. Now.”

Luisa smacked his chest, making him wince. “Don’t even joke about that.”

“Who sent you?” Kris’s harsh voice pulled their attention back onto the man on the floor.
