Chapter 44

~Zayne Beckett~

With a shaky hand, I opened the door to see Meghan, Carter, and my Mom being held hostage by the FBI.

"Zayne, run!" My Mom yelled out.

"No, Zayne. Stay," the man holding back my Mom grinned. It was the same scar guy from our last two encounters.

"This guy again? Really?" I groaned and rolled my eyes. He growled and aimed his gun at me. I showed them my palms, meaning I meant no harm.

"Stand down, no need for that."

I looked to the right to see someone who looks high in power. Like a general or something. Standing next to him was his daughter, Nadia. At that moment, I knew I was screwed.

Nadia's father is a Deputy Director for the FBI, meaning he's in charge of a couple of different fields. This one would've surely been one since he was there. I didn't even think about how her father worked for the FBI.
