Chapter Eight

Ava

I collided into Jasper. My eyes met his concerned one and without thinking, I hugged him tightly. My body was seeking protection from him.

"Jasper, save me." I begged him in a shaking voice. He pulled me away from him and pushed me sideways. Right as I stumbled on a side, he blocked a hand in the air.

A hand that was holding a knife.

The intruder that was running after me, had a knife in his hand which was blocked by Jasper's. Jasper's other hand curled into a fist and he pulled it back before slamming it on the intruder's face.

A loud crack echoed around, followed by a loud cry and a blood sputtering from the intruder's nose.

The intruder went with the blow and slammed down hard on the ground. Very calmly, Jasper pulled out his phone and handed it to me.

"Go outside and call the police." He told me with a clenched jaw and strode towards the injured guy. Jasper looked livid like he would kill him.

And I hope he will.
