The Almighty Dominance

Chapter 128

Marco spat blood and curses In one go.

"You... you're dead neat! And now you've made the rest of us dead neat, too!"

He was all wild eyes and trembling rage, but Alex just cocked his head, looking about as threatened as a bored housecat.

"That so?" Alex replied, voice flat, like he'd rather turn on his hee than waste another word.

"Stop!" Megan jumped to stop him, arms stretched wide like a rickety fence.

"You bastard! You dare mess with Jasper Drake? Do you have any clue what you've done? We'll all pay for this!"

Alex glanced from Megan to Marco, his expression as cold as a Janary wind.

"I don't care."

"But we do!" Sophia cried, voice shaking as she stepped closer.

"You've ruined us! Jasper's father won't stop at you; he'll come after everyone tied to you!"

"You'd better turn yourself and beg forgiveness," Megan warned, her voice trembling. "Don't take us all down with you."

"That's right!" Marco sneered, still hugging his battered nose, using Megan as a shield. "You must be out of your mind to hurt Mr. Drake's son."

A few murmurs rippled through the crowd, anxious whispers chasing one another like gusts of a gathering storm.

"He should've quit while he was ahead," someone muttered.

"Why fling that knife and drag us into his mess?" another chimed in.

The knot in Alex's gut tightened. He'd stepped in to protect Sophia and now they were treating him like a rabid dog.

Jason Paige-one of Jasper's toadies-threw his sneer into the ring.
