“Get your fucking hands off of me, you little punk!”

“Bradly, don’t do this. Let him go. Trust me, let him go,” Mackenzie said.

“Dude, don’t do this.”

That came from Jessie, who was on the other side of me. I let go of Mackenzie’s stepfather with a warning shove and took a step back.

“What’s going on?” It was my father’s voice.

“This little asshole assaulted me!” George said, pointing at me.

A male voice from behind us said, “That isn’t true. This guy physically attacked this woman and knocked her down. My husband’s called the police.”

Glancing over my shoulder, I saw the stranger pointing to Mackenzie.

“He said he followed her to the hotel,” the stranger added.

Jessie added his two cents. “He’s right. Bradly was protecting Mackenzie from this nutcase.”

At that moment, two police officers showed up. My hands were balled in fists as I stared down the asshole who liked to hit women.

Mackenzie approached the police, showed them something on her phone, then pointed to George and her mother. Anna was now standing beside her lowlife husband, when she should have been with her daughter.

“Kenzie!” Emily called out as she rushed over to her sister. “Did he hurt you?”

“No, everything is okay, Em.”

“Son-of-a-bitch!” Doug cursed as he approached, making his way toward George. I reached out as he passed to stop him.

“Don’t do it,” I said, as he turned to look at me. “Let the girls handle it.”

He pushed his hands through his hair, turned back to George, and glared at him. The dickhead smirked at both of us.

His smile vanished as the officers approached him. “Sir, I’m going to need you to turn around and put your hands behind your back.”

The other officer said the same thing to Mackenzie’s mom. Surprised, I glanced at Mackenzie and her sister.

She gave me a sad smile as she and Emily made their way over to us. Emily launched herself into Doug’s arms as Mackenzie took my hand and pulled me back to stand with my father and Uncle Ty. My mother and Avery walked out of the restaurant, both looking worried and confused.

“What’s happening?” Mom asked as she made her way to my dad.

He shook his head. “I’m not sure.”

“What right do you have to arrest us?” George yelled.

“You both violated a restraining rorder,” one of the police officers answered.

Mackenzie let out a deep breath as my mother wrapped her arms around her. When Anna glanced over at Mackenzie, tears filled her eyes. For a quick moment, I felt sorry for her. I wrapped my arms around both women as Doug ushered Emily back into the restaurant, along with Avery, my father, and Uncle Ty.

“Are you okay?” I asked her as she slipped her hand into mine.

“I am. I’m just glad you didn’t hit him or anything. He would have tried to sue you for as much as he could get.”

“Mackenzie, sweetheart? You have a restraining order against your parents?” My mom didn’t know the whole story, so I wasn’t surprised she seemed a bit confused.

“He’s my stepfather. And my mother…well, she hasn’t been herself in years, not since she married that monster, so I can’t really call her my mother any longer.”

“Mom, maybe now isn’t the time. Let’s just head into the restaurant.”
