An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

“Mr. Murray! Mr. Murray, wake up!”

The loud shout suddenly interrupted Sheila’s thoughts. She turned quickly to see Jayden, who was unconscious.

“Jayden!” Sheila rushed to check on him. Dustin had punched Jayden hard in the stomach. It left him barely breathing and on the brink of death.
