Devyn did as ordered as
tears streamed down her checks. She felt like a coward running, but knew it was
retreat or die.
Bullets rained around
her as she ran in a zig-zag pattern, trying to avoid being hit. She had almost
reached the truck when a bullet grazed her ankle, sending her tumbling to the
ground. She scrambled to her feet. Fueled with adrenaline, she ignored the pain
as she hobbled the last twenty feet to the truck.
Sliding into the
driver’s seat, she locked the doors and fished the keys out of her pocket. She
dared a glance back. Sofia was still firing at Ramon and J.R., but was clearly
too far gone to get off an accurate shot. But she had effectively given Devyn
the time she needed to get to the truck.
As Sofia’s arm lowered, J.R. walked toward her. He knelt on the ground and placed his lips to hers for a long and tender moment. He then slowly rose to his feet and pointed the gun at Sofia.

ReplyDeleteGreat question, unfortunately, to answer would probably give away too much. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you'll give the series a try. The series is heavy on suspense and light on the romance, so everyone can enjoy.
