Tom’s POV

What followed that brief conversation with Jack was months and months of unimaginable torture, which was meant to break me even further than I was already broken.

I didn’t see Jack throughout this period, but I did see other men, who were always masked, and brought me out of the cage nearly every day to beat me back and blue, only to repeat it the next day.

They put out cigarettes on my back, waterboarded me, and tortured me in ways I didn’t even imagine existed. Looking back now, it

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   Rage bait

    Jeff’s POVI didn't think I had it in me to hear any more devastating revelations, but Will obviously didn't care about what I could or couldn't handle, which was fine, because it was important to keep him talking.I needed to buy some time, so I feigned the right amount of disinterest, just enough to make him even more eager to spill the things he knew, because I needed his full confession for later.I adopted a martyred expression, as if I had given up all hope. "I don't see what the point of telling me all this is, Will. You've won. You're going to kill me, so what's the point?"Before he could respond, the door opened, and one of his men came in to meet him, whispering urgently. Will looked worried, and immediately, my heart began to beat faster."Well, then, you guys should hurry up with everything. Gather every valuable item into the vans. We're going to execute all the prisoners and dump their bodies somewhere no one would find them. But clear all the damning evidence first. Co

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   Undeserved

    Jeff’s POVMy parents? What did this asshole have to say about my parents, who had died years ago? "What about them?" I asked, watching him warily. "What if I told you that they didn't die by ordinary means, or at least, your mother didn't. Your father, I believe, died of heartbreak," he drawled, watching me closely to see my reaction.I refused to give him one, and he shook his head in a way that told me he believed he would very soon get the reaction he was looking for.He continued talking. "Actually, I'll start with your father.""What about him?" "What if I told you that I know the person, or rather, the people who kidnapped and tortured him for years, depriving you of fatherly care and love for those years, and turning him into a shell of the man he once was? What if I told you that I know the reason why they did it?"I couldn't control a shocked gasp from escaping my throat, and Will grinned, clearly having the time of his life."Ah, yes. That was more like the reaction I wa

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   An unsuccessful interrogation

    Jeff’s POV"Where the hell is she?" I asked Will through gritted teeth.He didn't answer. I desperately needed to know where she was exactly, but this cowardly asshole was so stubborn that he wouldn't answer, despite all the beating that he had received from me.He lay sprawled in an undignified position on the ground where I had flung him, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth and one eye already swelling shut.I would have thought that by now, he would be willing to tell me everything I wanted to know, but no. Instead, he did the last thing I expected him to do.He smiled at me. The smile was faint and crooked, and it was oh so infuriating.I grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and hauled him up, before slamming him down with a thud that caused him to groan, but didn't wipe the smile from his face.In fact, the smile had broadened into a grin. Damn, despite his cowardice, this guy had such a high pain threshold.“Where is Ashley?” I asked again.This time around, a low chuck

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   Upper hand

    Jeff’s POVFinally realizing that I couldn't just keep depending on sheer luck, I also sought cover like everyone else had done.All of Will's men had been hit except for him, but I wasn't about to take any chances. It was possible that they were only injured and would want to retaliate, in which case, they would happily shoot me dead.Several minutes passed, yet all I could hear from my hiding spot was utter silence. There wasn't any noticeable movement or sound, apart from the rustling of leaves in the slight night breeze, the ringing in my ears, and the pounding of my heart.Will was still alive out there, or at least, I thought so. For all I knew, he could have been hit as well, but I didn't think so.He had been so intent on saving himself and leaving his men to do the dirty work. Suddenly, the sound of wheezing not too far from where I was taking cover caught my attention.Someone was dying close by. I swallowed hard, my gaze darting through the trees, then I moved slowly and ca

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   Silence

    Jeff’s POV"You fucking bastard! What did she do to you to deserve such a thing?" I ground out through clenched teeth and charged forward with inhuman strength that caught both myself and those holding me by surprise. Their grips loosened temporarily, and I charged straight at Will, knocking him to the ground in the blink of an eye. I managed to throw two very satisfying punches at him before the men managed to pry me off him again."You bloody idiots! I'm not paying you heavily to stand around and watch me get attacked!" Will screamed at them, wiping his bleeding nose.Seeing the blood gave me such immense satisfaction, even as I watched Will advance on me, his face a mask of fury. His fist connected with my jaw, snapping my head back and immediately splitting my lip."Take him inside. I'm not sure I totally believe that no one knows he was going to my place. We would need to finish all this and clear all the evidence tonight. I can't take any more risks than I have already taken. I

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   The ambush

    Jeff’s POVThe longer Will drove and the longer I followed him, the more certain I became that this wasn’t just an ordinary outing.Most normal human beings didn’t leave the comfort of their beds in the middle of the night to go on a long drive outside town.If Will had something to hide, then this area would be the best place for him to hide it.The roads were deserted for the most part, except for Will, me, and the occasional vehicle that drove by.If that bastard indeed had Ashley … oh, God, if he did, I would tear him to shreds with my bare hands before the police even had a chance to deal with him!The further we drove, the rougher and narrower the roads became, until the city lights disappeared behind us.I drove with my headlights off, always careful to maintain an undetectable distance from Will. It wouldn't do for him to notice me following him and change his course. By the time he finally slowed down, my heart was pounding. What was I about to find? I eased my car to a stop

    Tom’s POVOh my goodness! This was exactly what I had feared would happen when she started challenging Jack. He couldn't hurt her, but he could teach her a lesson by hurting me.“What the fuck do you think you're doing, you beast? Let him go this minute. Let him go. I say.” She screamed at the guy
