Chapter 7 - Daniel Stormed the Warehouse for Me, Only to Discover the Person Who Betrayed Him Had Been Beside Him All AlongThe rescue was fast.
Violent.
Terrifying.
Daniel entered the warehouse with twelve men.
Gunfire erupted.
I heard shouting.
Doors slammed.
Then Daniel appeared.
He cut my restraints himself.
"Are you hurt?"
"No."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
He pulled me into his arms.
For several seconds, neither of us spoke.
Then I realized he was shaking.
Not me.
Him.
"You were afraid."
He released me.
"No."
"You were."
He looked away.
"I thought I was going to lose you."
My heart skipped.
Then Marcus entered.
"We found Victor's men."
Daniel turned.
"Who gave them our location?"
Marcus froze.
Nobody answered.
Then Daniel looked at him.
Marcus smiled.
"Don't look at me."
Daniel pulled his gun.
Marcus raised his hands.
"You're making a mistake."
Daniel's eyes were cold.
"I've trusted you for fifteen years."
"And I've protected you for fifteen years."
"Then why did they know where Emily was?"
Marcus had no answer.
But before Daniel could act, an explosion rocked the building.
Marcus disappeared.

Daniel stared after him.
"He was never my friend."
