Chapter 78

Gwendolyn stood frozen until a forceful shove jolted her from behind.

“Gwendolyn, I’ve finally got my chance.” The sinister voice slithered from beside her as Scott brandished a knife, its blade glinting ominously against her throat.

Held captive at the deserted bus stop, Gwendolyn could feel Scott’s breath on her neck, as loathsome as a snake’s hiss. “I’ve been watching you, sweetheart. Don’t even think about pulling any of your tricks with a needle, or I’ll slice open your throat!”

“What do you want?” Gwendolyn asked, her forehead beaded with cold sweat as she feigned composure.

“Bitch! So, you’ve already married that cripple! My family’s been ruined, bankrupt, and ! want him to taste what it’s like to have the woman I’ve played with!” Scott’s grip tightened on Gwendolyn, and he dragged her toward the dense shrubbery.

“Once I’ve fucked you, let’s see if he still wants you!”

“I’ll call the cops!” Gwendolyn’s voice was ice.

“Playing the chaste heroine, are you?”

Scott was a mess, exuding a foul stench. He even pulled out a length of hemp rope, binding Gwendolyn’s hands with it.

Bang! A loud noise echoed.

Gwendolyn felt the weight behind her fall away, and turning, she saw a man in camo gear tossing a rock back into the roadside flowerbed.
