Then the guy on the floor lifted his hand.

“That asshole. He almost killed me!”

His finger pointed directly at Sullivan.

My stomach dropped.

Sullivan didn’t say anything.

The officer looked at him.

“Sir, step over here.”

He obeyed.

“Officer-” I started.

“Ma’am please hold.”

Sullivan turned and looked at me.

Our eyes met.

He just shook his head once.

“You both are being arrested.”

The officer took Sullivan’s hands behind his back.

The click of the handcuffs sounded louder than it should have.

My heart dropped again.

“Sebastian.” I say, looking up at my boyfriend watching his brother get arrested.

“Shh, I’ll talk to my dad.”

I nodded my head as I watched them take him away.

He was protecting me.

Another officer approached me.

“Are you the woman involved?”

I nodded.

“Did that man touch you?”

“Yes.”

“Before the fight?”

“Yes.”

“Did you tell him to stop?”

“Yes.”
