Chapter 874 You Can't Take Her Away!

The sight stung Brendan in the eyes like thorns. Murderous air began to pool around him like the onset of a nuclear explosion. He slammed his hand against the bars, thundering, "What the h*ll am I seeing!?"

The warden's face turned as white as a sheet. He knew all too well what this was-bullying between inmates. What he did not expect was Brendan catching it right when it happened.

His hoarse commotion woke the inmates. When they saw who it was, their minds turned blank. They had no idea that a man whose very status would equate him to a modern-day prince would deign himself to visit a dirty cell in a detainment facility!

Her heart seemed to stop beating for a second. 'Is that... Brendan!?

'But why is he here!? He was supposed to have left!' "Shut the f*ck up!" growled Brendan, his features twisting into a horrifying grimace.

Sheer wrath had consumed his reason-he had to grit his teeth just to stop himself from being a monster. He stepped inside the cell, intending to bring Deirdre out of it. Before he could grab her wrist, though, he saw the bruises.
