“OLIVIA!”

The shout rips out of me.

I fire immediately—

Too late.

The man catches her hard around the waist and jerks her backward.

“No!”

Olivia fights instantly.

Elbow driving backward.

Boots kicking.

Twisting violently in his grip.

Doesn’t matter.

He’s bigger.

And now another man is closing in behind him.

Then another.

My vision tunnels instantly.

Everything narrows down to her struggling in their hands.

Something inside me snaps clean in half.

No strategy.

No discipline.

Gone.

I move before anybody can stop me.

Bullets crack around me.

Don’t care.

Someone shouts my name.

Don’t hear it.

All I see is her.

“LET HER GO!”

The roar tears out of my chest raw enough to hurt.

The man drags Olivia backward toward the vehicles anyway.

Her eyes lock onto mine.
