Chapter 11

"Is it really that easy?" I back away again, pointing the gun at him confidence slowly building within me.

Ryder puts his hands back in his pocket and looks unamused. "Put the gun down. I know you've never held one. I don't want you breaking a nail."

I want to shoot the arrogance off his face even though he is right. I know absolutely nothing about guns. However, I know it has a safety lock on it. I also heard him cock it when I first got here.

I examine the gun and see the little switch. I click the safety off and cock the gun in one swift move. We are both shocked by my action. He makes his way toward me.

Not knowing what else to do, I put the gun to my head, making him stop in his tracks. His tilts his head slightly upwards and parted his lips. I'm guessing he's taking me seriously now.

Holding the gun to my head is the only thing I can think of. Maybe he will finally answer my questions since I have the upper hand.
