Chapter Forty Eight
Bray
Dead fucking end.
Not only that, but the man who told Blair’s friend he saw him was lying. He was paid thousands just to say that, to get our attention or hers, I’m not sure. Cyrus wasn’t the only one who took his frustrations and fury out on the pathetic wimp of a man willing to take bribes from murderers.
Not that we are any better. We’ll kill him when we find him and not even blink.
Even now, being away from her has me anxious and wanting to hurry back. Especially since Prez’s men had to leave to help him with some trouble with Faye.
Asher’s phone rings, and he answers with a smile. “Baby, what?” he yells and rushes to the car without a word. Cyrus spares the moaning, blood-coated asshole a glance before we follow. Once inside, he puts it on speaker.
“He’s here,” she whispers.
Pop.
“Blair!” we all scream.
“Lexi!” she yells, and then there’s a crash as the phone drops before we hear footsteps leading away. The music and screams get louder for a moment, and then suddenly quieter, but we can still hear the gun.
Panic like I’ve never felt before races through me as we race back to the club. Every gunshot we hear makes us all flinch and go faster.
Blair.
Her name repeats like a mantra in my head. He’s there, he’s firing, and she’s not talking anymore. Every possible bad scenario flashes through my mind. We have to get to her, we have to. We never should have left her.
Fuck, I can’t lose her.
I can’t!
He won’t take her, he can’t, he can’t. He won’t kill her.
Will he?
Fuck, fuck, fuck.
“Faster!” I seethe.
“I’m going as fast as I can!” Cyrus shouts.
We all feel the panic, the complete terror of our girl being in danger when we’re not there like we promised.
We are going to be too late.
I can feel it.
My heart shatters as I grab Asher’s phone. “Darling, please, I can’t lose you! Just hide, please, Darling. Talk to us, please... please don’t leave us.”
Please,I beg the universe,don’t take the one being in this entire world that put my family back together and loved us entirely. Flaws and all.
Please.
