Dave's Pov:
He glared at me like a cornered wolf. His voice came out harsh, spitting words like venom, "Dave f***ing Morris. You will be finished. Finished."
He kept repeating that statement again and again while he laughed like a maniac.
I clenched my jaw. Usually, I would have refrained from acting on my anger, but not this time, because in that moment, I would have exchanged anything and everything to do what I was gonna do.
Without giving any second thought, I headed in his direction and threw a punch at him, thinking of all this time of searching.
Of what he would have done to Elena. All the ugly thoughts combined into one fist.
The punch then landed on his jaw with a wet, ugly smack. The sound felt huge in the quiet wood. A hard clap that stole the air from both of us.
Dirt and leaves flew up. Josh's head snapped to the side. For a second, I saw surprise on his face. Then something fiercer came, like a switch flipped in him.
