Swallowing back the lump growing in his throat, Glen shielded his nephew from this nightmare as best his scrawny body could.
He had lost his faith a long time ago, but now he was actually praying for Declan's safe return home. There was nothing left to his existence, he was an old man with too many years of sadness and regret behind him, but the boy was still young and had an entire life to experience.
If only one of them could make it out alive, he hoped it was his nephew.
Now he was staring at an even older man, more ancient than time and death. Fear wormed its way into the core of his heart, but even though he was shaking, his voice was the loudest and clearest it had ever been.
"If you want my son, you're going to have to go through me."
