Chapter 186

Jesse’s head jerked up at her words. He looked Renee in the eye as she said she loved him. There was no hint of her lying. She was finally looking at him the way she looked at Christian. Her face and eyes were full of love. His grip slacked up as he reveled in that look. Kevin took advantage of it and twisted Jesse’s wrists so the knife was now pointing back at his own chest instead of at Kevin. Kevin shoved his wrists forward and the knife plunged into Jesse’s heart. It happened so quickly that Jesse wasn’t sure why Renee was screaming and crying. The pain set in and he felt blood trickling out of his mouth as he fell to the side. Renee scrambled to his side and put his head in her lap as she pushed him onto his back.

“No, no, no! Don’t die, Jesse. I love you!”
