chapter seventy two

GRACIE

I stared in a daze-like state as the door slammed close merely inches away from my face, a part of my brain went numb, I couldn't think of anything .

But I could feel everything just fine.

The pain was raw, burning ..... intense, tearing my insides and coursing through my veins like molten lava.

He had look so dark , I had felt the dark intense rage emanating from him, it had shaken my core with terror.

For a moment I saw HIM. I had feared that HE was back.

I cowered.

Then he had suddenly let go like he had been scorched by my action .

The act of him letting go of me had snapped something in me, but it had been too late.

The fear hadn't left me, but it was a different kind, this time I was afraid for him.

The damage had been done already to him.

I was hurt. Then I had hurt him.

My body trembled uncontrollably, I knew deep in my bones that I just lost two people.

Shawn.

And him.

"Mommy cry?" A soft voice spoke from behind me.
