JASMINE’S POV
I heard a gun fire and for a moment I thought it was Kolton had beaten me to it. I was taken aback as I watched Kolton’s eyes widen and then blood pool from his chest and onto soak his white shirt.
He then collapsed and dropped to the floor. My mouth was agape with my hands still holding the gun. What just happened? I asked myself.
A figure soon emerged by the doorway. To my surprise found Keith looking down at Kolton.
"Keith..." I called his name in shock not expecting him at all. He looked my way. Keith had saved me.
"Jasmine..." he said my name as well.
He knelt by beside Kolton who lay motionless on the floor he eyes were still open though. He slowly dying. "Its over now, Kolton" Keith whispered to him.
He then got up and turned to me. "Are you okay?’ he asked me.
I nodded my head. "Tony, I need to go get Tony," I told him.
"I already found him and had him escorted outside.
"Let’s go home Jasmine," he said as he began making his way towards me. Immediately I froze up upon hearing those words. The hairs stood on the back of my neck. "No," I instantly refused. Did he mean he wanted to take me back to his estate?
"What?" he asked taken aback and stopped in his tracks.
"I’m not going home with you Keith," I sternly said. He wasn’t going to take me. Last time he could do it because I was unconscious. Today I wouldn’t stand for it. I couldn’t go through all that again.
I thought of the horrific and excruciating time I’d had at his home the last few weeks.
"This is is ridiculous you really want to do this now? How about we get your wounds checked and deal with this later."
"Yes we’ll deal with this now, because I’m not sure if you’ll let me go," I told him. I looked at Kolton who dying on the floor and back at Keith from one problem to the next.
"Jasmine..." Keith started to explain. I proceeded to have a back and forth of him trying to convince me to go back with him and me refusing. Actually refusing was charitable he was commanding me.
"...I dont understand. Why are you refusing? I can take care of you and our son why isn’t that enough for you?" he asked.
In the past I would have been happy with such an arrrangement but things are soo diferent now.
"This isn’t about money Keith. This is about you letting me go." I snapped. Why did it have to be me? He could be with so many other women out there but he was refusing. He just didn’t want to accept what I wanted.
I firmly believed it was because of his pride. He was still embarrased and overwhelmed by this whole Kolton/Diana situation and wanted save face.
I didn’t have the power to stop him. I felt anger and rage surge through my veins. What could I do to stop him? My mind scrambled to find a solution.
