Dominance [H.S]

CHAPTER 62

Samantha's POV

I gently felt how the pressure from the gun disappeared from my temple and how Alex's body fell to the ground beside me.
I opened my eyes as I kept my bottom lip between my teeth to make it stop shaking. I was terrified.

I could spot Harry's dark hair in the parking lot, he was dressed in his leather jacket holding a gun in his left hand.

My eyes met his and for a second I did not recognise them.

I looked down beside me, Alex had landed onto his back, piercing his cold and dead eyes into mine. I felt nauseous, i couldn't believe that Alex was dead, nor laying dead beside me. Amy would never understand, neither believe me if I told her the truth, that he tried to kill me and that harry killed him in self defence.

I placed my hand over my mouth as I tried to hold back my gag reflexes. But I couldn't.

I took a step forward and threw myself onto my knees. My stomach was twisting inside my body forcing everything to come up on the ground in front of me. The picture of Alex's bloody face made me gag even more. And the worst part of this is, Harry's is going to jail.

"Are you alright?!" I heard harry yell from the driveway.

I gently wiped my mouth with the back of my hand as I stood up onto my feet. I rested my hand against the cold wall to remain balance since my knees were shaking like two maracas. I took a soft breath as I noticed harry standing just below the small stair leading up to the main door.

My eyes met his.

"You killed him"

Harry closed his eyes "I had no other choice"

I looked down at Alex and the back at harry "yes you had harry"

He shook his head as he gently crossed his arms over his chest "no Samantha i did not"

I swallowed the hard lump that had been growing in my throat as I took two large steps away from Alex's body "only an inch wrong and you would have killed me"

"I would never kill you"

Tears began to fill my eyes "what if something disturbed you, or something scared you that made you tilt the gun just an inch to the right-"

"Sam, I would never and then I mean NEVER miss the shot"

I closed my eyes, he could easily have missed that shot and killed me instead. I don't care what excuse he pulls out but I know that he could have killed me, and knowing that he took that risk hurts like hell.

"The cops will probably arrive soon"

Harry chuckled "I'm not going to jail Samantha, I shot Alex in self defence, he's on my property, threatening my girlfriend with a gun against her temple"

"Killing a person is a crime no matter what"

He took a step upon the stair "oh darling, it's not the first time"

I frowned "what?"

He sighed gently tilting his head to the side "this is a rough world we live in Samantha"

What is this coming from?

"That still don't change the fact that you killed Alex. The FIANCÉ of my sister" I yelled as I gently rested my back against the wall piercing my eyes onto harry.

"Either I had to kill him or let him kill you"

"He wouldn't have killed me"

Harry took another step upon the stair "oh love, he would have. I don't really think you know the truth about Alex"
