His eyes locked with mine and for a split second, I forgot about the mess I was in. I looked down at the rope that tied my arms to the stairs case.

Said Sam. I glared at the 6'5 man standing in the corner crossing his arms. "Then let me go." I snarled. "You happened to see something you weren't supposed to Thalia." Said the quiet guy in the corner. I looked at him. "So I happened to see a drug deal? So what?" I asked. "Those men didn't attack you because of a drug deal. They attacked you because you saw what happened 4 years ago." He said. I was confused. "What are you talking about?" I asked. He walked up to me and kneeled down in front of me. "Don't tell me you that a little innocent girl like you could possibly forget a nightmare like that?" He asked. I looked into his eyes and it frightened me. "At the barn." He said.

I don't even get to be there for him or her. But there's a detail you so selfishly kept to yourself." I said. He rolled his eyes. "So what Lola. You didn't even want the child in the first place." He said. "Oh and that makes it better." I said. He grew angry. "Why do you even care?" He said. "I have no reason to live and I thought maybe for even the slightest of a second that a child just might give me one. But no you want to rip that from me." I said. He pushed me to the wall. "This is the plan. It was gonna be like this. The child would have no memory of you and you wouldn't even have to worry about me or my family again." He said. "I can handle you Shane.
