Scarlett's POV

"What?" | shouldn't have, but I laughed out loud.

Even for Ava, it's a hit too tic.

"You, want, her, dead," Gabriel says with a stone-cold voice. He is actually serious. His gang shoots. the disdain

looks as if among them, a group of bullies, I'm the most wicked.

"Did Ava mention that the last t| saw her was in her dear daddy's study? With her daddy, mummy, and her

Romeo all around her?"

"So?" Gabriel is not laughing, nor getting my implication.

"So?" | cock my eyebrow, knowing if | roll my eyes right now | would definitely piss him off so | dare not, So how

do you even imagine that | could even lay a finger on her with her army protecting her?" "You didn't lay a finger

on her?" Gabriel stands up and walks toin a dangerous stride, his tone getting meaner and colder, "Sure, not

My heart pumping fast in my chest. What's Aurora doing?! She would drop everything if she saw Code Red. But

even if she didn't see my message, she should have been here by now. "Stand up," Gabriel orders.

"What do you want?" | demand, scared as hell. Could | run, if he tried to get physical? Do | have a chance? But if

| don't...he might not kill me, but he would definitely hurt the baby! Lazily, Gabriel pulls out his phone and points

its camera at me.

"Stand up," Gabriel's tone gets grumpier, "don't be scared, little bunny. | just want an apology video from you."

| stand up slowly. | have been apologizing to Ava for "bullying her" all my life. | don't care if | have to do it again

"No, | don't object."

"Are you aware that even just a small cut on her finger could endanger Ava's life?" Gabriel enjoys his game. So

An you object?"

"No, | don't object," | sigh, just wanting to get this over with.

"Good girl," Gabriel grins, focusing his camera on me, "now strip."

What?! | open my eyes wide, not sure if | heard him right.

"Strip, or I'll do it for you," Gabriel says slowly, in that dangerous tone, "you didn't think you could get away with

such a horrible behavior just by saying a few lines of bullshit that you don't even believe yourself, do you?"

"| did not attack her!" | shout into his camera. | don't want to give him the satisfaction, but tears of humiliation

are brimming my eyes. He has always been an asshole, but never pushed it this far.
