Samuel shoved Niall into the back of his car then turned back towards me. All I did was take a step forward. Things happened too fast. I felt a sharp pain in my right shoulder and before I could comprehend that I had just been shot by Samuel, I dropped to the ground.

Samuel got into his car and sped away. I reached out my hand and cried out Niall's name, but he was gone. Samuel got him. Niall was gone.

I shut my eyes and yelled out in pain. I heard footfalls from behind me only to hear a high pitched scream from Miss Cartier. She was panicking, but that wasn't gonna stop me from bleeding.

She screamed for Mrs. Thompson to call my personal doctor. I hoped he'd get here fast; I was in so much pain. Miss Cartier pulled me into her lap and softly caressed my face while telling me not only will we find Niall--alive--but that my doctor was on his way.

I could feel myself slipping into unconsciousness and I was fighting it. Miss Cartier begged and begged me to open my eyes so she knew that I was still alive. I did. I opened my eyes and stared up at her face. Her cheeks where wet and her eyes were red. There was absolutely no way that she could have been Samuel's inside man. She wouldn't be so broken up about Niall being taken and me being shot if she was.

Then who the hell was his inside man? It wasn't Mr. Carson. It wasn't Miss Moore. It wasn't any of my staff. Maybe he was bluffing to scare me; to get me paranoid. If that's the case, it worked.

I heard rocks crunching under the tires of a car. I looked over and saw my doctor, Dr. Montgomery, quickly walking to us with his doctor bag in his hand. Miss Cartier told him what happened and they both brought me inside.

He got the bullet out of my shoulder and holy shit did that hurt. He then cleaned the wound and bandaged me up.

"Mr. Styles, I'm giving you some medication for the pain," Dr. Montgomery said as he pulled out a bottle of pills.

I knocked the bottle out of his hands and stood up from the chair.

"Mr. Styles you need to--" but I cut him off.

"I am not gonna rest until I find Niall. I'm not gonna take medicine to dull my pain because this pain isn't anywhere close to the pain of seeing the one that you love get taken away from you!"

Miss Cartier and Dr. Montgomery gasped. Yes. Yes I did just admit that I loved Niall.

"I deserve this pain I'm feeling. I deserve it! And don't try to sneak the pills into my food. I'm not stupid!"

I started pulling at my hair and Miss Cartier gently pushed me back down in my chair.

"Alright, Mr. Styles; no meds then. If you do change your mind--"

"I won't," I spat.

"But if you do--"

"Which I won't."

Dr. Montgomery rolled his eyes.

"I really hope you do find him, Mr. Styles. Good day."

He left immediately and Indie took his place.

"Harry! What the hell happened to you?" she asked as she grabbed onto my face. "I saw blood on your walkway..." She gasped. "You've been shot? Did you and Niall get into a huge argument and he shot you?"

Now she was laughing.

"How the fuck can you be laughing right now? I've been shot. Not by Niall but by Samuel and as you can tell, Niall isn't here! Samuel took him! He took my Niall away! I promised I'd protect him and now Niall is in the hands of the guy that's threatening to kill him!"
