The security guard couldn’t help but smirk when he heard Zinnia speaking in that dead serious tone.

The three Shaw brothers frowned as they heard Zinnia’s words.

Maelis tore free from Yosef’s grip and charged at Zinnia in a rage. The humiliations she’d suffered recently nearly matched all she’d endured in decades. She thought, ‘Zinnia is nothing but a curse.

Maelis was halfway through her charge at Zinnia when Howard yanked her back.

The security guards formed an impenetrable wall around Zinnia, making it impossible to even touch her. With those towering men blocking the way, all anyone could do was catch fleeting glimpses of her through the narrow gaps between them.
