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?”

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

The bullet had hit him instead.
