Jacob Mackay
"What did you say?"
Three pairs of eyes turned toward that voice. Brin's face was white with shock, and she looked like she was having a panic attack. Jacob could see tears pooling in her eyes. She moved to go closer to Ryker, who was on his feet, but Sutton held her back. Brin stared hard at Ryker, willing him to discredit Grant's statement. Ryker stood helplessly and just looked on. A single tear rolled down Brin's cheek, and she tore away from Sutton and ran away as fast as she could.
Sutton turned immediately in pursuit and with the speed of lightning, Jacob stood up and held her back with a shake of his head. She struggled to get away, but his hold on her was tight, though it wasn't enough to hurt her.
