Don't Let Me Go (Book 1)

Chapter 51

MARIA'S POV

'' Fucking bitch'' Marshal threw Malisa to the ground. I hurried to go help my sister up when he grabbed my hair and pulled me back

'' Ahh'' I cried '' Marshal let me go'' Struggling with his big, strong hand in my hair, looking him dead in the eyes, he tightened his grip

'' This sharp mouth of yours is a real pain in the ass''

'' Unfortunately, you are stuck with it for a while'' I snapped back making him frown harder

'' No... I can easily get rid of it'' he raised his hand, about to hit me

'' Please stop'' Malisa cries while I close my eyes, ready to accept the hit

'' No!!'' another familiar female screamed out of nowhere and we fell into silence, the grip on my hair suddenly lessen. I opened my eyes to see the one person I never expected to be here. Logan.

'' Logan?'' I called, almost whispering. Logan held Marshal's hand in the air firmly, stopping him from hitting me

'' You wouldn't hit her'' that authoritative tone spoke

'' And who the fuck are you to tell me what to do'' Marshal barked while trying to pull his hand away from Logan's grip but Logan had no intention of letting him go

'' Let go of her

'' Someone has plans of dying tonight'' the confusion in Marshal's tone was clear

'' I don't think that will be favourable on your part '' Bianca's voice followed. Across Logan's shoulder, I spotted Bianca recording the scene. Just great, the twins are here, did they bring their parents along? Let it be clear that it is a family gathering '' I already called the police''

'' What the fuck'' Marshal yelled

'' Let go of her'' Logan spoke again. Marshal stared at Logan for a long while, conflicted. '' Sir... let her go or I will be the one who kills someone tonight'' Those words shocked me. What is Logan doing? trying to help me? What is he doing here anyway? Marshal finally released my hair and the moment I was freed, I hurried to my sister who was now kneeling next to my mum.

'' Are you alright''

'' Maria who are these people?'' Malisa cried and I knew I had a lot of explaining to do and scolding to receive after this. Marshal's boys who were once ruining the house had stopped and were ready to move at Marshal's order. Logan finally let him go as well and they stared at each other, Heavy tension in the air while I worried they would hurt him any time soon.

'' I have every right to be here... they owe me money'' Marshal defended himself

'' My father owes you money'' I corrected

'' well your father is dead... who will pay the money'' Marshal asked

'' Her father owes you money... You have no right to assault them'' Bianca added

'' oh... I see. Then who will pay the fucking money, ha?''

'' How about you go dig up his fucking dead body and ask him directly?'' Logan stepped forward, closing more gap between the two ready for a fight

'' what the fuck'' Marshal grabs Logan by the collar in rage while Logan remained calm as always. In control, he stares dead at Marshal

'' Get your fucking hands off my brother or you wouldn't like what comes next'' Bianca steps closer in defence

'' Kids of this generation have no fear any more, do they?'' he looks at his boys with a smile and they all smile as well. He looks back at Logan ''What the fuck would you do if I don't''
