“Don’t you fucking touch her!” he yelled at the man There was no panic in Luke’s voice-only ot too close that Luke would try to keep him away from me I quickly jumped in the truck and locked the door The man stared at me with cold eyes full of fury as he stepped away and walked back in front of Luke

Shit I had to do so, but he was too far away I fumbled around in the truck to find love coin there that would save us Maybe I had watched one too many actions movies Whatever the reason, I reached over and opened it to find an 9 on top of the truck manual

I was suns I had carried one for years after my parents died, because my father had forced me to take classes on how to protect myself There were about twelve bikers outside the truck and I had ten bullets in the clip Chances were, these bikers were carrying also, but as I looked through the back glass at theLuke, I knew I had no choice No one on the highway had bothered to stop The few cars we did see kept right on going, paying no attention to as happening around theun

I could easily put the truck in drive and leave Luke to fend for himself, but I was not that kind of woiven the opportunity he would give his life forto play out when I stepped fro that this turned in my favor

Holding a gun rown uns to h skin for a reason and noas a dae my presence until I flipped the safety and loaded one in the chaun The sound was unmistakable and sounded like it came from miles away

“No sugar I don’t,” he said sun fro turns pointing it at different ones By this time, everyone had their hands in the air

“I’ll see you soon Frankie, but I think it is best if y’all leave right now,” Luke said his voice low, but stillto carry over everyone there

“You think you the only un Luke? Your Bonnie and Clyde show don’t fucking scare me!”

Ok noas scared I expected hiun and kill us anyso hard, I figured they could hear it, and that panicked feeling had settled into ed to keep my composure

“You knoell, Frankie If you or one of your boys even think about pulling a gun, I’ll have a bullet in your fucking head and you know it If I go down, you go doith me”

Frankie seeo,” he suddenly announced to the other guys and I couldn’t help ju at the sound of his voice

He gaveyou real soon sweetheart”

“Now!” Luke barked Within seconds the guys were back on their bikes and heading in the same direction they came from

Luke quickly put his gun away and carefully grabbed the one froot in It was like I was in so happen?

He left the door open, but went to the back of the truck to finish changing the tire I kept my eyes and ears open for the sound ofof a handful of cars
