Broken World
“Angus says.
Slowly, I lift my head. Angus walks across the room and pulls a gun out of his bag. He checks to make sure it’s loaded. I blink and try to wrap my brain around what he’s doing, but it’s like I’m trapped in some kind of fog.
“Are you nuts?” I somehow manage to get out.
“Need to know what we’re dealin’ with,”
he says, shoving the gun in the waistband of his pants and pulling out a few knives.
“That maid attacked me! What more do you need to know?” My heart races and the sudden urge to... scream is so overwhelming that I have to ball my hands into fists. There’s no way this is happening. I take a deep breath and try to get my pulse to slow, to stop the pounding in my ears, but it doesn’t work. The urge to or throw something or rip out my hair gets stronger. Maybe I’m hysterical.
“Angus is right,” Axl says, copying his brother’s movements. “You can stay here.”
I jump to my feet and shake my head. “I don’t want to be alone.”
Emily starts to whimper and I jerk.MoreLess
