Kyra's POVI could feel nothing but blind terror as I lay there on the cold floor, my hands clamped on my ears to block the loud bangs of guns being fired one after the other from damaging them.
My heart lurched and pounded in my chest as if it'd leap into my throat. I couldn't tell who was getting shot by who or how it was happening. My eyes were shut and I depended on the muscular bodyguard lying in front of me for protection.
Personally, I couldn't feel any intense pain on any part of my body, meaning I hadn't been shot yet. That wasn't the case for my bodyguard. He was groaning in pain and I had a strong gut feeling that he had been shot. That was literally a red flag for me.
I heard one more gunshot, followed by a heavy thud as if someone had fallen onto the floor. I also heard the sound of metal dropping and I guessed they were guns. Two of them.
My bodyguard fell over and he lay flat on his stomach from the position he had been operating in. I slowly sat up, my back pressed flat to the wall as I looked around the room with eyes full of panic and confusion. I was trembling too much. My heart was beating way too fast for my liking. I had to breathe.
Sitting up wasn't the best thing to do at the moment, but I couldn't stay on the floor either. I had to escape and save myself because I was clearly on my own now.
There was nowhere to run to without risking triggering this monster and getting shot immediately. I was way too far away from the door to run out. There was nothing to hide behind either apart from a sofa that was a few feet away from me, close to the hallway.
Fear paralysed completely at the thought that I was completely helpless. The man before me wasn't human. He was a beast, the devil himself. He wasn't looking at me, but I felt as if his eyes bore into my soul and he was capable of aiming at me and shooting without even thinking twice if I made any sort of movement.
Trevor himself stood a few feet away from me in khaki jeans and a black leather jacket. He looked horrible and absolutely creepy. He had changed a lot from the last time I had seen him in a very negative way. He wasn't bad looking from how I remembered him, but now, he could pass for one of the ugliest men I had ever met.
His beard had grown very big and it looked untamed and messy. He was in desperate need of a haircut and he had weird scars on his face I didn't remember seeing before.
Stature wise, it appeared as though he had grown taller and even more muscular. I felt like a tiny mouse with him towering over me like that. It appeared as if he was able to kill me by simply crushing me underneath his feet with the combat boots he wore.
There was a man lying face down in a pool of blood close to the opened door that blew wind and light showers of rain inside. The clothes he wore told me he wasn't one of my bodyguards. He had to be Trevor's partner, the stalker.
As for Kevin, he sat on the floor with his back pressed to the sofa. He groaned in pain, one of his hands clutching his bleeding arm. He looked up at Trevor with utter fear in his eyes as if he were looking at the most terrifying man he had ever met.
My stomach lurched and I felt sick. I had no idea what was happening to me, but I felt sharp pain in my head close to my teary eyes. Everything seemed wrong at this moment and I felt as though all the strength in my body had been sucked out.
Trevor stared at Kevin murderously, pointing his gun straight at me. I closed my eyes and my trembling hands flew to my chest. Fear seized me violently and panic surged through me.
Jayden.
His name was the only one I could call at this moment even if I knew it was practically impossible for him to show up and save me. My heart screamed his name desperately. It called out to him for help because he was like my guardian angel.
