Chapter 8:Theo

A pounding rang through my head, and I fell to the floor as my right leg gave way beneath me. My gut felt like it was in a vice, and I swear I felt a rib snap.

“Theo,” Kylee yelled as she came running to my side.

What the f*** was happening?

“Baby, what’s wrong?” Kylee’s panicked voice sounded beside me. She was feeling across my body, trying to find the source of my pain.

She wasn’t helping. I pulled in as deep a breath as I could to help hide my reaction.

“Kylee, I’ll be fine. But I need you to go back to your room,” I ordered.

“Are you crazy? I’m not leaving you,” she shrieked.

“Kylee, I said go,” I snapped as Briggs entered the room. “Briggs, get her out of here. Take her to her room and make sure she stays there. And don’t f***ing tell anyone.” I put a

I saw my phone on the floor halfway under the bed. I cried out as I bent to pick it up just as Briggs came back into the room.

“What the hell is going on, Theo?”

“It’s Ayla. Something’s happened to her. She’s injured badly.”
