Chapter 40

Watching and listening in the car, Wyatt and Dave saw Spike shoot Sam, heard Isabella scream, and saw Sam fall to the floor.

Wyatt thought Isabella might be hit as well so pulled out his gun, ready to go in when Michael appeared on the screen.

"Stand down, everyone, I said stand down," Wyatt said into the radio.

Wyatt and Dave watched, listened and waited as Michael admitted murdering her father and explained her destiny with Spike, how he and Spike had met, how he got paid, and what he had done for it. Ready to move in they saw Spike's gun and heard the shot simultaneously.

Wyatt jumped out of the car and ran toward the house. Just the thought of that pig putting his hands on his Isabella made him sick. He had to get to her and get her the hell out of there. Then he would take care of Spike himself.

He heard Dave yelling for him to wait for backup and to not go in alone but it fell on deaf ears.
