Mark wanted to rip him to shreds. Melinda heard the kids moving around in the next room and began pulling on her clothes. Mark growled but pulled his boxers and jeans back on as Serenity led Allyson and Dylan into the room. "We're scared," Allyson whimpered. Mark lifted the small girl up onto the bed and gave her a hug. "Where's daddy?" Serenity asked as she helped push Dylan onto the bed before climbing up herself.
Mark's heart clenched and Melinda gave him a sympathetic smile.
"Daddy's with mommy, making sure she's okay," Melinda answered. Allyson let out a small scream as Joe started going at the wall with a sledge hammer. All of a sudden, the noise stopped and the door opened. Mark looked at Melinda and reached for her hand. They both breathed sighs of relief as Jake stepped into the room. "It's safe," Jake said as the kids ran to him.
He bent down and held them tightly, his eyes never leaving Melinad and Mark. His eyes narrowed. "What happened between you two?" Jake wanted to know.
Melinda pulled her hand away and stood up. "How's Shira and Sunny?" Melinda asked. Jake smiled. "Dehydrated, but they're fine," Jake answered. He led everyone to the main house as Joe and his family were being handcuffed. "It's over," Jake promised his friends.
