I need to draw this out, make him pay, however I do know that I’ll by no means have the ability to. I’ve to accept my face being the ultimate factor he sees earlier than he dies.

“You’re going to rot in hell, and if I discover out that you simply laid even a finger on her, I’m going to tug you again out of there myself and kill you once more.” In my fury, I carry him once more and smash his head down. Blood trickles out from below him and rapidly disperses within the rain.

I have to get to Anabelle. I have to see if she’s okay. I didn’t even likelihood a take a look at her within the limo as a result of all I might take into consideration was making this piece of shit pay.

Eradicating my hand from his collar, I press the gun to his temple once more and press the set off. A sick sense of satisfaction programs by me on the bloody path that runs from the street down into the ditch.

I push the gun into my waistband and pop up. “Anabelle!”

Frantic, I rush to the opposite facet of the limo and discover Kol there with one arm wrapped round a weeping Anabelle. The opposite is pointed on the driver, who’s standing beside the motive force’s facet door along with his palms raised.

“Anabelle, are you okay?” I rush to her, pulling her away from Kol and letting my palms skim gently over her face.

She has a minimize over her eyebrow and a bruise already forming there. There’s additionally a bruise blooming on her collarbone. I’m positive there are extra I can’t see proper now.

“Asher,” she weeps, crashing into my chest and wrapping her arms round me.

I maintain her however not too tightly as a result of I don’t need to harm her. “Are you okay?”

“I’m now,” she says.

“You two take off. I assume your jet is right here?” Kol says, and I nod. “I’ll deal with this mess. You get Anabelle house.”

I look within the route of Preston’s physique. “You positive?”

“I received this.”

I nod and pull Anabelle across the limo and Kol’s automotive and thru the airport’s entrance. “Don’t look behind you.”

I don’t need her much more traumatized from seeing Preston’s physique.

The rain beats down as I pull my cellphone from my pocket and hit the pilot’s contact, telling him to prepared the jet ASAP. The steps on my jet are down by the point we attain it, and Millie, the flight attendant I’ve employed for years, seems at us wide-eyed. I’m not frightened about her telling anybody what she sees. I pay all my staff properly sufficient to forestall that from ever taking place.

“Inform Ralph we have to depart as quickly as potential.”

She nods and takes off within the route of the cockpit whereas I deliver a trembling Anabelle to the again of the airplane the place my bed room is. I lead her to the tip of the mattress and drive her to sit down down earlier than I sit beside her.

“Are you okay?”

She nods, squeezing her eyes shut. “I used to be so scared, Asher. Thanks for coming for me.”

She hugs me, and I take her in my arms, operating my hand up and down her again, so grateful that she’s okay. When she pulls away with tears in her eyes, my gaze snags on the harm on her head.

“I’ll have the physician meet us at Midnight Manor to take a look at you. Did he…” I gulp arduous, unable to say the phrases.

If Preston sexually assaulted Anabelle, I swear I’ll determine some approach to make him pay, even in dying.

She shakes her head. “No, no, you discovered me earlier than he might… however he stated he was going to. He was going to do it and ship you a tape of it.” Her face crumples, and she or he cries once more.

That cuts like a blade over my pores and skin, bleeding me out as a result of it’s all my fault. If it weren’t for me, she wouldn’t be traumatized like this.

I draw her into me till she settles, then I ask if she needs to take a bathe. “I’ve some spare garments I maintain within the airplane which you can grow to be.”

She nods. “Will you come within the rest room with me, although? I don’t need to be alone.”

I cup the unhurt facet of her face. “After all.”

As soon as we’re within the air, I assist Anabelle out of her gown. Once I spot one other bruise growing on her arm to match the one on her head and her collarbone, I really feel as if I is likely to be sick. If I’d been a couple of minutes later…
