Chapter 42

Precious's P.O.V

Angela grabbed me from the ground as the king's men surrounded us. My focus never shifted from my mother as Angela pulled me from the ground, I kept on trying to reach for her but Angela looked at me.

"We have to leave your mom," she said.

"No, I can't leave her behind," I grabbed my mother with two hands trying to get her up.

We were now surrounded by the king's men and my head was far away from them seizing and killing us because my focus was still on saving my mother.

"Precious, you have to go," she said with her struggling voice "I am too weak, I will slow you down."

"No, mom no," I started sobbing.

When I looked up, the king grabbed a gun from one of his guards and aimed at us, then with a blink of an eye, the gun went off. Angela in her quickness, she could snatch me away before the bullet could even hit me but I wish I could say the same about mom.
