Gabby heard Josh’s voice crack through the yard, sharp and furious. “What the hell are you doing?” Her hands fumbled at the latch again, but it wouldn’t budge. She turned around slowly, Juniper still cradled in her arms, her heart plummeting. She was stuck. Trapped. And he was coming.
Josh stormed across the yard, eyes blazing. Gabby crouched quickly and set Juniper down behind her. Her voice trembled but rose with rage. “How could you do this? You monster! How could you hurt these poor animals?” Her shout rang through the daylight, echoing against the warped siding of the house.
