Rhea's Pov

I scoffed but said nothing. There was blood in my throat and in my mouth, so I couldn't speak. But I made sure that my eyes could convey everything that I wanted to say. And it made him angry. But he controlled his anger, instead, a very evil smirk appeared on his lips. My heart shook in fear. What was he planning now?

He walked away, towards the darker places of the warehouse. For one second, a stupid second, I thought he was done. That maybe… Maybe, he’d had enough and was tired of hitting me. Maybe he would angrily leave and wouldn't come back for a while so I could lick my wounds. But that smirk should’ve warned me.

He didn’t stay for long. Because a few seconds later, he came back holding a short metal pipe. It was rusted and some parts of it were already falling apart. If that thing touched the wounds I already had, they would get infected so badly. What was he planning on doing with it? He spinned the pipe in his hands, smirking as he stared at me.

  • CEO Wants Me: Heiress Has Risen Again!   Chapter 170

    Rhea's Pov My breath hitched. Twenty minutes? Of him hitting me? Without a sound? My heart jumped. Could I do that? Could I really endure that kind of pain without a single cry? I’d never been in a fight in my life, let alone been subjected to that kind of harm. My stomach churned, and a wave of nausea washed over me. I’m not strong enough to endure something like that. I’m just not. I’m a coward. I know it, I’ll break. I’ll cry out. And then Marcus… It would put us in more danger. I can't do it. My gaze flickered to Marcus on the ground. He was barely moving, a pale, bloodied shadow of himself. The thought of him dying because of my weakness, because I couldn't bear a few minutes of pain… A sharp, burning resolve ignited within me. No. I wouldn’t let that happen. Not to him. He had risked his life for me and was always ready to do that despite the fact that we were not very close. I'm sure that he would have had the chance to escape without me. I'm very sure. But he didn't. My

  • CEO Wants Me: Heiress Has Risen Again!   Chapter 169

    Rhea's Pov “Ugh! Ugh! Ack!” I heard groans coming from my side as I slowly opened my eyes. My head was throbbing and somehow, I felt warmness in my throat, like I was about to throw up or something. However, I held it in and looked at the source of the noise. The stalker was hitting Marcus who had fallen on the ground, he had a bleeding wound just above his chest and a little under his shoulders. There was blood dripping down the corner of Marcus’s lips and I could tell that he was fighting to keep himself conscious. How long has it been since I went unconscious? “You fucker! How dare you speak to me like that?! You crazy fucker!” The stalker continued to hit him until Marcus suddenly fell to the ground, his head hitting the concrete ground hard. “Marcus!” I yelled out his name in panic, my eyes wide, “Let me go! Marcus!” I screamed, years already starting to gather at the corner of my eyes. He was bleeding. He was bleeding very seriously. “Oh? The little princess is awake?” “Le

    Rhea's Pov A snicker escaped my lips before I could even stop it and it was when I knew that I had fucked up as his eyebrows immediately furrowed. But why should I care as he was going to kill me soon anyways? Even if he was going to beat me until I dropped unconscious, as long as he didn't take us away from this place, I wouldn't mind. I glanced down at my phone which was still on the ground and back at the man. I could only hope that Alaric was already on his way and that I wouldn't do this for nothing. “Ah…” I took a long deep breath, readying myself for what was to come, “Alright. Let's do this.” I muttered under my breath. I looked up at him and smirked, “It was getting boring.” “What?” He paused. “I said… It was getting boring.” I repeated, louder this time, my smirk widening, “Honestly, I thought that whoever was dropping those rats at my doorstep had more creativity than just dead rats. It was an amateur movement. The fear you were looking for? That was just me bei

    Rhea's Pov The man stormed in, his eyes blazing with amusement as he stared at me. I glared at him, my hands still shaking from the force. And also, I was scared. Now that I saw him clearly, despite the dim lights, I could tell. This was him. The same man who had stalked me that day when I was going to the marriage hall, and the man who had stabbed me that night. He was the one. “Why didn't you stay put like I expected you to stay? Now we'll have to start moving all over again until I'm done with you. Why do women like you not like to listen?” The man used the gloves in his hand to hit me on the face, twice. There was an infuriating smirk on his face. “What do you want with her? If the police find out where you are, you won't be able to escape at all!” Marcus yelled from where he was tied up. He was struggling against the bindings very noticeably but it was too tight. The knot he used couldn't be easily untied. “Well… I have nothing against her in particular. It's just tha

    Rhea's Pov My eyes fluttered open, a groan escaping my lips as a dull ache throbbed beneath my forehead. My head felt heavy, and the world was swaying. I shook my head and blinked, trying to clear my blurry vision. Where was I? I looked around; it was dark. The only light that came in was through the small holes in the cracks and thankfully, they shone bright enough to make me see things a bit. I was in a moving vehicle, probably the truck that hit Marcus and I. Was it the stalker who hit us? Panic began to coil in my stomach. I tried to move, but a sharp pain shot through my side. "Marcus?" I whispered, my voice hoarse. No answer. I fumbled around, feeling for him. My hands touched his warm body. I felt for his pulse, my heart hammering. It was there, he was still breathing, though it was faint. Marcus was unconscious. “Oh God.” I muttered, trying to calm my breath so he wouldn't know that I was already awake. My hands, though still shaky, instinctively went to my pock
