Mercer lunges for me and wraps his hand round my throat. He takes full management of me and forces the gun subsequent to my head with my very own finger on the set off.

“Dani—!” Fox freezes. “Mercer, don’t—!”

Mercer pulls me backward with him away from the others and drags me exterior to the porch.

Fox bends over and grabs the rifle from Smith’s useless palms. “You’ve bought nowhere to go, Mercer,” he says, following us exterior. “Let her go.”

Mercer doesn’t cease. He digs the gun into my temple whereas main me farther down the driveway. “Go forward, Fox.” He chuckles. “You assume you’ve gotten a transparent shot?”

Fox factors the rifle at us and stares down the sights. “At this vary, I don’t want one.”

Mercer laughs. “I doubt I’ll go down earlier than I get off only one shot at her. You’ll be able to spend the subsequent few hours separating chunks of our brains.”

“Fox—” I cry.

“It’s okay, Dani.”

He reloads.

“Come on, Fox!” Mercer growls over my ear. “Take the shot. I dare you! You’ll be able to finish this now. Simply shoot her via the guts and also you’ll hit me, too!”

Fox blinks with hesitation.

I quiver with worry as his eyes fall on mine. “Fox…”

He exhales slowly. “Dani… shut your eyes.”

Mercer’s arms go tense round me. “You shoot me, and the Boss will come after you, Fox! She’ll come after everybody you take care of!”

“No,” Fox says. He rests his finger over the set off. “I’m fairly certain I’m doing her a favor.”

I shut my eyes because the shot rings out.

Ache rips me aside from the within. I open my mouth to scream, however no sound comes out. My ears ring. I see nothing however purple…

Till all of it fades to black.
