“Charlie, give Grandma a kiss, will you?” Mrs. Lucas asked, holding the child in her arms.
Charlie shook his head firmly. “No!”
Mrs. Lucas froze for a moment, a flicker of hurt flashing across her face. But she understood that it would take time for them to fully accept her.
She didn’t push it. “Alright, let’s just keep taking the photos.”
The photographer was about to continue when loud commotion suddenly erupted outside. Irritated, the photographer walked to the door and yelled, “Keep it down!”
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a man burst in, wild-eyed, grabbing the photographer’s equipment and slamming it to the ground.
Everyone was stunned. Jamie instinctively shielded Charlie in her arms, her heart racing.
The intruder’s gaze landed on the family taking their happy photos. His bloodshot eyes burned with rage as he screamed, “Why do you get to be so happy? Why?!”
Panic filled the air as the man charged toward them. Jamie, acting on instinct, pushed Charlie behind her, completely forgetting her own safety.
Ben reacted instantly, shoving Jamie and Charlie aside to stand between them and the attacker. His body tensed as he braced for the man’s assault.
But the intruder hesitated when he saw Ben’s imposing figure, backing away slightly before pivoting and lunging toward Jamie instead.
Jamie gasped in terror as the blade glinted in the light, hurtling straight for her. Ben, caught off guard by the sudden change in target, couldn’t react in time to stop him.
Just as the knife was about to strike, Mrs. Lucas threw herself in front of Jamie.
The knife sank into her back with a sickening sound, and the sharp scent of blood filled the air.
“Mom!” Jamie screamed, her voice trembling as she watched the scene unfold.
