Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)

Chapter 119

Chapter 119 Radiation

"Eva! I'm here, don't be afraid!" Leonard's voice, rough with anxiety, echoed through the metal shack. Even through the walls, I could feel his desperation. Looking out the small window, I saw him and the police rushing toward us.

Remembering what Lily said about the radiation, I yelled as loud as possible, "Don't come in! The rocks are radioactive! Stay back!"

""You bitch, you're such a loudmouth!

Lily snarled and struck the back of my head with the hilt of her knife. I stumbled and fell to the ground.

Before I could steady myself, she yanked me up again, the tip of her knife waving menacingly in front of my face.

"Eva, don't you want him to die with you? Wouldn't that be great? Just like Romeo and Juliet, both dead for love. None of these love stories end well."

Her twisted smile widened as she slapped me.

"Bitch, say one more word, and I'll carve you up, piece by piece!" she threatened, dragging me to the corner of the room.

She then shouted out to Leonard, "If you want to save your wife, tell the cops to back off! I can tell your really don't care about her life. You actually had the nerve to call the police, Leonard? Move them back, or I swear I'll kill her! I'll do it!" Lily kept shouting, and the louder her voice got, the more it showed her guilt.
