Chapter 366

Stella snorted. "Why isn't it broken? It should've been."

Shawn stammered, "Y-you... it wasn't enough that you nearly broke my leg, now you're trying to get Xander killed? If your brother finds out you're in his hands, it's over for all of us." Stella rolled her eyes. "It's not like I walked into his hands willingly. If anyone's to blame, it's him."

Trying to manipulate her? Not a chance.

Shawn was seething, seeing stars from his rage.

Xander stepped forward, grabbed Shawn by the collar, and dragged him to the door, tossing him out with a loud bang.

The door slammed shut, leaving only Stella and Xander in the room.

Xander took long strides toward her, his eyes catching the increasingly visible red marks on her neck. In an instant, his demeanor turned dangerous. His eyes narrowed slightly. "I told you before, didn't I? You're my fiancée," Xander said.

Stella scoffed. "Just because you say so? What kind of nerve does it take to say something like that without even considering the word 'consent"?"

"You..." Xander was infuriated, grabbing her and dragging her towards the bathroom.

"What are you doing? Let go of me, you jerk!" Stella yelled, hitting and clawing at him in anger.

Xander tossed her into the bathtub, aimed the showerhead at her, and reached for the faucet.

"You wouldn't dare, Xander!"

Xander chuckled. "Dare to threaten me, huh? You've got guts."

With that, he turned on the water, soaking Stella as he roughly scrubbed at the marks on her neck with his thumb.

Stella was livid. In a desperate move, she grabbed the showerhead from him and swung it at Xander's head with all her might.

Xander felt a sharp 'clang' as it struck his skull, the pain reverberating through his head.
