Her body moved before her mind caught up, planting itself between her father and the one man her pulse raced for. She ignored the gun now aimed at her chest, listening to her heart drumming violently as death loomed inches away.
"Don't shoot! Let him stand trial. Let the law punish him. You don't have to do this." she suggested.
That sounded like a blow at Zane's dark gut which fueled his disdain. His face hardened, rage twisting his features.
"You think this is about fairness?" he said coldly. "This is about revenge. Step aside."
Selina shook her head again, standing firm. "No! I'm not moving. Not this time."
"Take her out of the way," he ordered.
One of them stormed forward, dragging Selina from her father's view. A cruel path was given to the predator to strike.
"Don't do it!" she screamed, kicking against the ground, her voice hoarse.
Bang!!
