…Isabella POV…
I promised James that I would never tell Clayton; he made me understand that if I do that, he would not only have him and myself killed. But the thing is that I cannot keep this in any longer; it has been killing me to be away from him. Yes, I did betray Clayton, but I cannot betray him any longer.
So I swallow deep and try to breathe underneath what is only but stuttered breaths.
"Clay, James said that he would have you killed it. I have told you the truth."
"Isi, what are you talking about?"
"He, he…god Clay, I am too scared."
"Please, I will get Matty to phone the cops. Just tell me what is going on."
Then out of nowhere, there come two men bursting through my front door. I can only but shout out one last word to Clayton, "Help."
