#Chapter10 In Which He Protects

Isla gasped out in fear and horror as people started panicking and running shoving past one another to get to safety.

Isla felt helpless and blind in the pitch blackness, her mind in a frenzy. People had their phone lights on but she had left hers inside her clutch which was on the table they were seated at.

Isla felt the tears, wet and cold streaming down her cheeks as she searched for the familiar faces of her dad and Alexander in the pitch dark.

More gun shots were fired making her heart hammer so hard against her chest that she could hear her own heartbeat.

Alexander who has jumped into action as soon as the lights went out had headed for the direction Isla was in but it was so chaotic that he kept on losing her in the dark, however, with the aid of his flashlight he located Isla, smack dab in the middle of the hall looking scared as hell.
