Mom looked over at me through teary eyes. “Go back to your room. You don’t want to see this.”
“They’re staying.” Harlan swept the gun down her chest, between her breasts, and to her stomach. “They’re going to see what happens to whore women like you who cheat on their husbands.”
And then, Harlan pulled the trigger.
Everything stopped.
Every.
Fucking.
Thing.
Blood pooled out of Mom’s abdomen. Her body went limp.
I collapsed onto the ground and used the rest of my strength to crawl over to her, clutching her body in my hands and putting pressure on her wound. “Mom, no, please, no. Stay with me.”
“Where’s your gun, Jace?” Harlan asked, cracking a smirk. “Did you lose it? Did you decide that you couldn’t kill your old man? You fucking should’ve done it sooner because I’m not fucking stupid. I figured it all fucking out. And after I put another bullet through her head, you’re next.”
“No,” a woman said, stepping out from behind Harlan, the muzzle of her gun against the back of his head. “You’re not going to lay another hand on my son.”
