Chapter 46: Chapter 46: She's Safe

Dax POV

Sweat started to drip down my forehead as he kept his gun locked on me. He gave a sinister grin at me.

I stood my ground and wasn’t going to go down like a coward. I narrowed my eyes at him and showed him that I wasn’t afraid.

Was this really the end? My mission was going to be in vain. I had been so close to saving Danica. It would be all for nothing if I died. But I was out of luck, since no one else was around to help me out.

Suddenly, there was a shot fired from the doorway. When I looked over, one of my security team members was there. He must’ve have been quietly following me the whole time. The gangster gripped his leg and went to the ground.

He deserved getting shot. My heart wouldn’t stop beating. That man had almost killed me. It had been one of the most terrifying moments of my life. I was glad that it hadn’t been my final moment.

I turned to the staff and said, “Thanks for saving my life. I won’t ever forget this.”
