I let go of him. My fingers just… give out and his body drops the last few inches with a dull, heavy thump, his head hitting the floor harder than I expect. I flinch instinctively, my heart jumping straight into my throat, I just freeze there, staring at him, Half-expecting footsteps to come running but nothing happens.
I swallow hard, forcing myself to move and having no pity, not even a little. Whatever he came here to do….whatever they all came here to do…..it wasn't good. And if I hadn't fought back…i don't even let my mind finish that thought as I turn sharply toward Zane's office door, my hand immediately grabbing the handle again. Please Just open, just this once. I twist it harder this time and shove my shoulder slightly into the door, like maybe force will do what logic won't. Nothing happens it doesn't even budge and I'm not even surprised there Zane doesn't do "easy."
A shaky breath leaves me.
"Okay… okay, think…"
