I gulp. His voice was deep, menacingly calm. "Harry-"
"Do you know what I do when I have a problem, Ria?" Harry looks at me, eyes empty. "Answer me."
"You..." my eyes meet the floor. But not for long before cold fingers are grasping my chin and tilting me up a fraction, forcing me to look at him as I finished my sentence. "You eliminate them."
Harry smirks darkly, giving my jaw a gentle squeeze, "Bingo."
"I'm not making it out of here anytime soon, am I?"
He remains still, and the second he pulls the gun out of his jacket, I was forced into accepting my fate. "Oh, baby," he feigns a sad expression, angling his head to the side, "You seriously don't think you're making it out of here alive, do you?"
And that was the moment I realised that they were right. Harry Styles truly was the devil in disguise.
