All Chapters of Going Feral: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

By the time I got downstairs, Ethan’s jacket had been torn to shreds. Ethan looked at the Doberman in terror, his face pale. “Dad! S-Save me!” Ethan gasped for air, his tone full of fear. Standing there, the neighbor, Andrew Livington, said in disdain, “You have a rude kid. “My baby girl is just playing with you. Why are you screaming for help?” Bella the Doberman got more hyped up. She put her paws on Ethan’s shoulders while drooling. Armed with my kitchen knife, I lunged forward. “Silas, have you lost it?“Don’t hurt my baby girl!” Andrew cried in a fluster. Not paying him any heed, I swung my knife at Bella. The ambush drew a deep gash across Bella’s body. She rolled to the side and whimpered in agony. “You came, Dad!” Ethan reached his hands out in tears. “Don’t be scared, Ethan. It’s okay now.” I pulled Ethan into my arms and whispered reassurance. Ethan was born with a congenital heart condition, so the slightest emotional distress could be fatal

It took three hours of medical intervention to bring Ethan back.Even then, Ethan was not out of the woods. All my attention was on caring for Ethan. To my dismay, the police approached me three days later. “Are you Silas Warburton? “Please come with us,” one of the police officers said while showing me a warrant I frowned, my eyes reflecting confusion. “May I know—” The handcuffs clicked around my wrist before I could finish my sentence. Ethan burst out crying in fright. “Don’t arrest my dad… Don’t…” As Ethan’s breathing turned shallow and rapid, a flicker of panic crossed my face. “Can I go with you once I get my kid settled?” I turned to the police officers and pleaded. Surprisingly, my request was denied. “We’ve a ton of cases waiting for us. We don’t have time to sit around while you calm your kid down.”The police officer gripped my shoulder. My pleading and struggles fell on deaf ears. As I was about to be dragged out of the ward, a furious voice

It was Ethan’s voice! With anxiety written all over my face, I sprinted toward the bedroom on the double. Crystal stood in my way. “Leave, Silas! “Don’t ruin your life any further. Don’t let this get out of hand.” Crystal was firm on that note. However, I detected a subtle hint of nervousness in her expression.I pulled a grimace. She was a monster! I couldn’t believe she would conspire with her love to kidnap her own son. With all my might, I shoved Crystal out of the way. Caught off guard, she tumbled to the floor. I even heard a sharp, sickening crack as her bone snapped. Nevertheless, Crystal shouted anxiously at Andrew as if numb to the pain, “Quick! Stop him!” Too bad it was too late. While Andrew stood in a daze, I stormed into the bedroom. Holding my breath, I carefully pinpoint the source of the sobs. Moments later, my gaze fell on the bed. I was pretty sure that Ethan was in there. With that, I threw the mattress off the bed frame. There

I pointed at Crystal and Andrew. “The kidnappers are the child’s mother and her lover.” The police officer was stunned. “Mr. Warburton, this is not a joking matter. “Mrs. Warburton is a renowned legal counsel in the city. She has worked with the police force on many cases. She wouldn’t commit such an act.” The cops behind him nodded in agreement. Furrowing my brows, I was peevish. “It’s really her. I found my son stuffed under the mattress in her lover’s bedroom.” I pointed at the rope on the floor. “You can check for fingerprints and decide whether I’m pulling your leg.” The lead police officer and his team turned solemn. Ethan, who nestled in Rachel’s arms, interrupted the cops before they could say anything. “Mom and that guy took me from the hospital. “They tied me up and told me they’d beat me if I didn’t listen,” Ethan said miserably. He put his hands out and showed the bruising along his wrists. The police officer, his expression grim, went up to ex

“If you could step aside for now.” I waved my arm. Then, I approached Crystal. Hunched over, I sneered, “Retained counsel? “You only got the job at the Warburton Group because of me.” Crystal was stunned. “You’re really the heir of the Warburton Group? “Why didn’t you tell me?” Crystal shouted, sounding rather hurt. It was the most absurd thing ever. “Why should I tell you?“A woman who has been unfaithful and involved in the abduction of her own son is not fit to be a member of the Warburtons.”Crystal was thrown into a panic. “Hear me out, Silas. It’s not what it looks like.” Struck by a thought, Crystal snapped her head toward Andrew. “It was him! He was all over me!“He insisted on kidnapping our son. “I only stayed with him for fear he might hurt Ethan out of desperation!” Andrew was in disbelief. He shot an angry look at Crystal, but only muffled sounds came out of his lips. Out of the kindness of my heart, I removed the towel from his mouth. An
