Capítulo 83: Deserves To Die

The bullet whizzed past Evelyn, so close that she could feel the rush of air against her skin. Her mind went blank for a second, the sheer terror of it freezing her in place. But luckily, it didn't hit her. Instead, it grazed her arm, the sharp sting of the wound snapping her back to reality. 

"Eva!" Zevian's voice cut through the chaos, his strong arms pulling her out of the line of fire before the girl could take another shot.

John, who had already settled in the driver's seat, tensed hearing his master's voice. His eyes darted to the rearview mirror, assessing the situation. Luckily, their car was heavily bulletproof, and the stray bullet had ricocheted off the top of the vehicle with a dull thud. But the outside noises of the crowd that had gathered at the scene were enough to startle Kiana, who stirred in the backseat. 

"M-mommy?" Kiana's soft, sleepy voice broke the tension. Her eyes fluttered open, confusion and fear mingling in her innocent gaze.
