Chapter 106 Forced to Drink

“You’re here to drink in his place, right?” The young man started. “Time to do your job! Chug this!”

“Chug! Chug! Chug!” The crowd began to clamor excitedly.

Deirdre had always been alcohol-intolerant. Just the stench of beer triggered a gag reflex, and she pushed the pint away, to the young man’s displeasure. His smile stiffened. “Hey, what’s this supposed to mean? Are you trying to tell me that since you’re Mr. Brighthall’s b*tch, you wag your tail only for him? Boooooo! You’re no fun!” Brendan watched the exchange from his seat. He crossed his legs and fiddled with his ring, his frigid onyx-black eyes boring straight through Deirdre’s face. His lips were curved when he chided placidly. “Now, now. What did I tell you about your attitude when you were at my party? Have you forgotten already?”

He did not sound particularly angry, but that nonchalance was a front to the biting chill only Deirdre understood. He was warning her. “Defy me, and I’ll take it out on Sterling.”

“Um, I…” Deirdre forced herself not to tremble. The more fear she displayed, the more excited these people would become. “I’ll have it.”

She took the pint in her hand. Someone from the crowd shouted, “Chug it! Don’t drink it in sips like a wuss! Chug it in one go!”

Deirdre’s heart raced. The stinging stench of alcohol made her nauseous, but she thought of Sterling. If alcohol poisoning could save Sterling from being dragged back into hell, then so be it.
