Chapter 114

Katrina’s POV

I happily wrapped my arms around Silas, leaning my weight against him and letting him support me.

All I wanted to do was to be away from this man.

Before we could take a step, Ethan let out a low chuckle, his face twisted in pain and fury. “You really thought you could walk out of here just like that?”

My eyes widened as he pressed my face into his building, wrapping his arms around me protectively.

Why? I couldn’t speak, I couldn’t think.

The bullet had hit him instead.
