Esther felt trapped by Bradley, cornered like a scared animal. Before she could react, Bradley barged into her
world, causing destruction and chaos.
“Did you hear that noise?” someone asked.

behind my back, you should have known I wouldn’t let you off.”
Bradley opened the door and left without another word.

and it ended up biting me.”

“You’re right,” Bradley agreed, taking Mandy’s hand.
With a gracious smile, he said, “I’ll go get the vaccine right now.”
Mandy discreetly pulled her hand away with a sweet smile. “I’ll drive you there.”
“Sure.”
