She drops down, sitting with her back to the seat.

I kneel in front of her. “I need you to stay right here.” Her eyes are wild. Full of tears. “Tell me you will stay right here.”

She’s nodding, even as she begs me, “Don’t go.”

I grip her face and kiss her. Hard.

“Call your brother and don’t fucking move.” I press my phone into her hands and move to the floor of the car, which is vertical on the opposite wall of our confined space.

The trap door is a little bent, but I tear it off, revealing my weapons.

The gun in my holster won’t do it against multiple combatants. But this will give us a chance.

CHAPTER77

Val

Dominic pullsa long black gun from the hidden floor well, followed by a rifle and several clips.

With a pile of weapons and ammo ready, he kicks open the back door, the edge of the large hatch scraping against the ground.

I want to yell for him to stop.

To come back.

But then he’s crawling through the opening to the outside. Where the bullets are.

He’s crouched just beyond the interior, staying low, keeping his head down.

His eyes flick to mine, then he moves over, out of my view, to the back corner of the downed SUV.

And he unleashes. The sound of bullets leaving his barrel is almost deafening.

I can’t lose him.

My fingers fumble with the phone. I don’t even remember when I started to cry, but my vision is blurry as I look at the screen, which unlocks with my facial recognition.

I have to try twice before I click on the phone icon.

And I have to try three times to hit the letter K to find KV.

Dominic reaches through the open back to grab a new clip.

I press King’s name just as Dom opens fire again.

At the same time, I hear new gunfire from somewhere else outside. And the vehicle I’m sitting in rocks with it.

I press the phone hard against my ear and cover the other ear with my other hand.

“What is happening?” King’s voice vibrates against my eardrum; I didn’t hear him answer.

“K-King.”

“Val!” His voice is more startled than I’ve ever heard it.

“We need help,” I cry. “P-please help.”

“Val, where are you?”
