Avery's POV
Ethan reached back into his pocket and pointed a gun at Marcella. I felt my breathing stop for a second.
"Ethan! She is pregnant, for goodness sake! What are you doing?!" I yelled, trying to process the scene in front of me.
"What exactly is your plan?" Ethan roared, ignoring me and still pointing the gun at a visibly frightened Marcella.
Without thinking,I rushed in front of Marcella and spread my arms in front of her. "Are you insane? She only came to ask for help!"
"Avery,move." Ethan warned,his eyes serious.
I shook my head in disagreement. "No way! Why are you trying to hur—"
"My baby!" Marcella gasped, and I turned just in time to catch her from falling. "My stomach hurts,my baby.."she whispered with her face scrunched up in pain as a lone tear fell from her eye.
