"Go ahead, scream all you want. Scream until your voice breaks... It won't make a damn difference."
Hank looked like he was savoring the moment, lust blazing in his eyes.
"Emily, you walked right into this yourself. Tonight, unless I make sure you know what it feels like to be taken hard and rough, I might as well not call myself a man," he said, breathing heavily.
He yanked her hair and dragged her back toward the villa. Anyone with a brain could tell exactly what he planned to do.
Theo chuckled from the side. "Mr. Armstrong, once you're done, would you mind if I took a turn?"
Hank raised a brow. "Theo, you're bleeding out. Are you sure you've got anything left in the tank?"
Theo's face twisted in hate. "That bitch is the reason I'm like this. Even if it kills me, I want to have her once."
Emily's heart dropped, filled with dread. She wished she could smash her head into the wall and end it all.
So this was Theo's true face. He was such a filthy and disgusting man. She had been blind, totally blind about him.
"Hank, I'd rather die than let you touch me!" Emily shouted, struggling with everything she had.
However, two vicious slaps later, she went limp, her face pale and lifeless. She did not dare resist anymore.
Hank gripped her chin, his smile dark and menacing. "You worthless, dirty bitch. You had the nerve to come at me? The moment you and that bastard Theo chased me all the way to Verhampton Valley, your fate was sealed!"
Emily cried out, her voice hoarse. "Even if you violate me, my dad and Logan will never let you go!"
Hank sneered. "You think I don't know how far we are from Blumedale? Once I finish with you, I'll head straight back to Chetvine for my debriefing. Then I'll take on the next mission, vanishing from your life. The Keller family is nothing but an elite family in Gabo Creek. What can they possibly do to me?"
