Excerpt
Charla gasped. Every single piece of wood paneling
was ripped from the walls, exposing the interior framework of the house. The
basement was trashed, the boards strewn and broken all over the ground. She knew
there was no way Jack had the strength to do this. Her heart hammered as panic
flooded her body.

flooded her body.
Someone was here.
“Shit,” she whispered as she turned and fled up
the stairs, gripping the bat until her fingers ached. Just as she reached the top step,
a black figure appeared. A large arm wrapped around her waist and pulled her
through the doorway. Her bag skidded across the kitchen floor as she shrieked and
kicked. She swung the bat wildly in the air but was unable to connect to the body
behind her. She felt her body weaken under the man’s strong arms as he pulled her
in tighter until she was snug against him. She jabbed the bat behind her, still trying
to connect in vain.

“Drop the bat,” he rasped in her ear.
She squirmed and kicked her legs, trying to get free
from his grasp. He picked her off the ground.

“Drop the bat,” he repeated calmly as she swung the
bat loosely with only one hand. His accent lingered in her ear. It was thick, an accent

“No,” she choked out. She wasn’t going to go down
without a fight. Not here, not in the only place she’d felt safe for the last three
years.

“Drop the fucking bat,” he barked this time,
squeezing even harder. She felt the pressure on her chest constrict her breathing.
She panted, wincing at the burn in her ribs. “Don’t make me hurt you.”
