“You got it babe, whatever you want,” Darren tells me.

I sigh with relief when I see the cameras aren’t outside the doors. Heck, there is no one inside of the lobby either. Maybe they all got arrested?

Someone walks around the corner and I stop breathing, my whole entire body freezing.

Standing in front of us is Josh and Rebecca.

He grins at us. “Here she is Summer just like you asked.” He shakes her a little causing her head to snap around.

“Now, come to me like a good little girl and you can spare her life.”

FUCK.

CHAPTER 13

SUMMER

Someone is walking up behind Josh and I try not to look at them and alert him to what is happening.

Darren slowly starts walking in front of me, trying to protect me. Walker has my arm in his hand, pulling me closer to him.

Josh is still grinning that crazy smile, showing all his teeth manically. I can see the filthiness from way over here.

Josh turns around suddenly letting Rebecca go and shoots the person who is trying to sneak up on him.

Rebecca jumps into action taking off running. Darren lifts me off the floor and runs with me out of the room, dragging me further into the police station office.

Walker is running behind us, his gun out and ready. “I can’t believe this is happening,” I repeat over and over in my head.

Darren pulls open another conference room door, pulling us inside of it and locking the door.

He pulls me to a desk and helps me under it. “Sweet girl, whatever you hear, no matter what, do not leave. Okay?”

“Wait! Where are you going?” I try to pull him back to me.

He touches my cheek, gently. “Baby, you know what we have to do,” he says softly.

Tears fill my eyes, absolutely terrified for him. I can hear gunshots going off somewhere in this building.

Walker bends down next to me too. “We’ll be back, we won’t be leaving you, baby. We just have a fucker to kill.”

Both kiss me. I cling onto them not wanting them to leave me. Why can’t we all hide in here?

I let out a sob the second the door snaps shut, leaving me all alone.

Walker

Leaving her there under that desk was the hardest thing I have ever done in my life. The terrified look on her face, her haunted eyes begging for us to stay.

Fucking killed me.

Darren takes out his gun and I watch the change happen to him. “Let’s get this stupid motherfucker.”

I take the safety off my gun. “Let’s go.”
