EVIL
Part Three
Jason found him alone. Max had called.
He took Sonny back to his penthouse. Michael was upset enough about his again missing mother and Morgan did nothing but cry, sensing it somehow, knowing everyone around him was in hell.
He left Sonny on the couch, away from the wet bar in his own place. He'd get Sam, take her across the hall. Carly would hate it but it was better than Michael seeing Sonny not see anything. He couldn't find her there, and he so left to tell Max to locate her.
She slipped in from the balcony. She'd been thinking about how Carly'd gotten off her own. It would have taken a lot of equipment and a lot of luck for no one to have found or seen her. Up would have been fastest but then how did she get off the roof?
She saw Sonny sitting on the couch. He seemed tense, twitching, even though he barely moved. It was like he was listening to her, waiting for her to approach and attack.
"Sonny?"
He whipped off the couch to face her, not knowing her, suspecting her. He moved like a beast caged and stalked.
She put her hands out in front of her to reassure both of them. His eyes were wild. "Sonny, it's me." More primal and vicious then the night he'd held her hostage against Carly's betrayal. "Sam… remember?" She took a slow step toward him and he grabbed her now within hands' reach and pulled her roughly to him. Her back to his chest he held her wrists behind him and spoke in her ear with a feral grating that scraped her everywhere.
"Where are they? Who are you? What have you done?"
Panicking, Sam breathed heavily. This was not good. Then it got worse.
There was the shooting, ripping pain from her breast bone all the way down her belly. Like someone had taken a fillet knife and sliced her open for a fish. She went to instinctively reach there with her hands but they were still behind her back. She stopped the same tearing scream as her pain and called out, "Sonny, the baby." And then her hands were free.
Jason had heard the unholy sound come out of the penthouse when he was conferencing with the body guards on Sam's location. No one had seen her leave but he hadn't found her in the penthouse and was worried.
Then that sound.
Slashing through him.
Through the door he saw Sonny's hands on her, her falling to the ground, and pried Sonny off her. Grabbing her and running to the elevator, he'd left Max in charge.
Max watched Sonny watch him like an enemy. "I mean no disrespect sir, but you should take a seat."
