Holly, eager to please her master, wasted no time. She lunged at me, fists and feet flying, kicking me over and over again. By the time she stepped back, my body ached all over, my vision slightly blurred from the impact.
"That’s enough. Don’t kill her."
Regina walked over and crouched beside me, smirking.
"Listen, you fucking bitch! Consider this a lesson."
Her fingers lifted my chin roughly as she said, "Stay out of my way, or I’ll deal with you personally next time."
I forced myself to sit up, staring her straight in the eye, my voice unwavering.
"It’s just the King family of Los Angeles. Nothing special."
The moment the words left my lips, Regina’s expression twisted into pure rage.
"How dare you!"
She snatched up a chair, raising it high, ready to bring it down on me.
But before she could strike …
Bang!
The door swung open with force.
All heads turned toward the entrance.
"Mr. Woods, why are you here?!" one of the businessmen blurted out in shock.
