“One step and I’ll make this even more memorable,” Ward says.
Willow covers her mouth and screams.
I get it.
She can’t believe her brother is like this.
My eyes meet Mila’s.
That’s my girl. That’s the woman I love.
That’s my… my everything…
I’m not going to fuck around and play games.
“Ward, I have to call the police,” Willow says. “You need serious help. You’re out of your fucking mind right now.”
“I need her to love me,” Ward says. “I need her to-”
I jump forward.
It’s a split-second decision with a split-second move.
I know if I fuck this up then Mila is going to get hurt. Possibly hurt really bad too.
My right fist flies straight out.
It happens fast. Really fast.
My fist hits Ward right in his nose.
The shock of the hit drives him back.
The pain of a punch like that… eyes watering up… pain… blood…
His head also snaps back.
Ward lets go of both Mila and the broken bottle.
But I’m not done yet. No.
I go for him again.
He spins around and opens a drawer.
He’s looking for a knife but ends up swinging at me with a spoon.
I punch him in the face a second time and he falls to the floor.
I grab his shirt and I hit him a third time.
I’m poised for a fourth punch when someone grabs my arm.
“That’s enough,” Willow says. “I called the police. They’re on the way. It’s done, Jax. It’s… done…”
I look at Willow.
I move away from Ward.
