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.

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.
