Sneak peek into Time's Up (The fourth book of the Blazing Charm Series)

Xander walked around the corner and raised his gun as Anistasia stood between him and the crib. Xander's voice was rough and deep. He had finally turned completely evil in Aniastasia's eyes. "Move Ani!" He yelled and pulled the hammer back.

Anistasia shook her head and glared at her brother. "NO! You nor anyone else is going to lay a hand on my daughter unless I am cold and dead." She hissed back at him as her head raced trying to think of how to get out of this mess. "What happen to you Xander? You are really going to take away a child's mother in cold blood in front of their eyes?" She stepped back her back touching the crib now.

Xander smirked and shook his head. "Ani you know you're not the mother type. You don't have mother instincts. All you know how to do is run away and hide like the little girl you are."

Anistasia glared at Xander in the eyes and her hands balled into fist. "You know nothing about me Xander. And you will never be a father just like our father. You walk in his footsteps and you will lose everything and everyone even your own child will hate you." She spat at him knowing this could be the last conversation she ever had alive. But she was not going to let her brother get the last laugh and intimidate her. She was going to be strong for her daughter and she was going to be strong for her family.

"Anistasia!" Rachel screamed as she ran into the room. The gun fired twice just as John ran inside. He froze at the sight he saw. Anistasia was covered in blood along with the crib and floor. The body lay on the ground and Xander being now out numbered vanished through the doorwary without accomplishing his objective to get the baby for Sebastian.
