Safe

"Well done." The man smirked and tightened his grip around Anna. "Only if you were half as obedient as your boyfriend, you wouldn't have been hurt."

"Don't touch her." When Brian tried to move, the man warned him.

"Move and your little woman will not walk out alive." The captor pointed the knife towards Brian. "This knife is sharper than you can imagine."

Brian gritted his teeth and stayed put. He was helpless. His backup hadn't arrived yet and he had no arms with him at the moment. There was nothing more he could do to keep Anna safe than to listen to the captor.

After making sure Brian wasn't trying to retaliate, the man gestured to his partner to step out of the room.

"Come fast." The man with the scar gave him a meaningful look before walking out of the apartment.

Brian gritted his teeth as he watched the man casually walk out of the apartment. He felt helpless and frustrated at the same time.
