Despite the fear running through my veins I stood tall. I would not allow anyone to take him away from me. I will protect him by any means necessary. Even if it costed me my life it didn't matter so long as he had his.. "He is my Son." I say deadly calm. I spoke smoothly and I finally felt sure of myself. He tried to hide his surprise at my obvious new set of balls. "I will never let you take him from me. I won't let you destroy him." I meant every word I said. He narrowed his eyes and looked away. "Its out of my hands. He has spoken and his word is law." He sighed and for a moment I truly thought he had a soul. For a moment he actually looked guilty. Then his gazed turned to ice. "He is coming with me. End of discussion." He says lowly, dangerously. He made a step in my sons direction and I snapped. I didn't even know what I was doing. My fist flew up and slammed into the side of his cheek. His face snapped to the side and he took a tiny step backwards. "Over my dead body." I huffed out taking a protective stance in front of the doorway where my child laid asleep unaware of the danger he was in. He slowly brought his gaze to mine and my heart nearly fell out of my chest. A smirk adored the features I thought I loved but his eyes were soulless. I clenched my teeth and glared at him fiercely. I didn't even have time to process the fact that he moved. I hit the floor so hard it drove the breath from me. I tried to get up but he kicked me in my ribs. For the first time I wondered about my sons true father and who he must be for me to be in this situation. I wish I hadn't. I wish I had done anything else. Maybe If I had I would've noticed him reach for the gun that he now had pointed at me. "I'm sorry, Juliet." The gun went off but I was still breathing. <Please Follow my IG @ThePassionateQueen as I will be posting PSAs about the book and future books on that account as well was sneakpeaks of chapters.> [Rewritten]
