I gasp, breathing in muffled sobs as prickling sensation turns to searing pain.

I give a ragged cry as he smacks me one last time.

"No!" Hale said. "You don't know anything about this guy."
"I know he's left handed and has an old injury to his right knee---probably a torn ACL at some point but the details don't matter. And the way he keeps his finger purposefully away from the safety of that gun means he's never fired it. And he doesn't want to."
