Chapter 31
- Sawyer silently followed behind Christian as Ana continued to fight him while in his arms.
- "Let me go, Christian! I need to finish him. He can't live any longer!" When they reached the bottom stairs, He led Ana slide down his body before grabbing her arm. He pulled her to his side, and kept his grip firm, as Sawyer closed the door behind them. Jogging to the car, he opened the door, watching as Christian assisted Ana inside, and slid in behind her. Once he closed the door, Christian turned to Ana. Making sure she faced him, he said nothing, only let her hit him repeatedly in the chest. He could see she was tiring herself out, and when she did, she collapsed into his arms, and gripped his shirt in her fist.
- "It's not fair, Christian. He shouldn't be alive. He did things to me, he is scum!" The entire time, Ana was wailing and screaming in the back of the luxury car. Both Christian, and Sawyer could hear the desperation, and pain mixed in with her tears, and it took everything in both men to not cry. Sawyer was thinking of ways to off Jose without either person knowing. Looking in the rear-view mirror, however, he knew it was useless. He swallowed when he saw the evil, and cold look in Christian's eyes. The last time he saw that look was when his parents were killed and he figured out who did it. The second time was when he found one of his men trying to steal from him. Let's just say that people in the underworld still talk about the sadistic measures Christian took to ensure no one stole from him again. This look was a mix of the old, along with rage.
