To Tyler, begging for mercy meant nothing, and only made him feel more disgusted. “Once the devil starts hating someone, that person suffers more.”
Tyler seemed to be punishing Liana, but really, he was punishing Will. He wanted the third wheel who rocked up on his island to wish he was dead.
At first, Liana fought back. But once she was emotionally dead inside, she stopped moving, like a corpse, tied to a pole, a plaything for Tyler.
After he was done with her, Tyler lazily zipped up his trousers. Yeah, he didn't bother undressing to punish Liana, nor did he undress her. He just undid her pants, covered her body with his own hulking frame, his back to Will the whole time.
He was a well-dressed monster, doing vile things, but not wanting other men to see Liana's body. It was a level of twisted beyond saving.
After tidying up Liana's messed up clothes, the monster let her off the pole. Liana, weak and drained, collapsed to the ground without his support. Her eyes red from crying. She didn't dare look at Will.
Will, still caged up, watched Liana, pale as a ghost, and started to cry again.
Tyler watched Liana for a moment, then turned and started walking to the door. As he was about to leave the cage, Liana's hoarse voice came from behind him, "Tyler, take me with you."
Hearing that, Tyler paused, apparently not understanding what she meant. He slowly turned around, looking at Liana who was sitting on the ground.
Liana, wiping the tears from her eyes, looked up at Tyler, "Didn't you say you wanted me to stay with you for a month?"
She held out her free hand.
"I'll go make you a garlic pork chop."
Tyler's furrowed brows softened a bit, "Do you remember what you promised me?"
"Yes." Liana nodded, a mild smile on her face. "I said I loved you first, of course I remember what I promised you."
Even though Tyler had been fooled by Liana's sweet words before, he chose to believe her. He walked over to Liana without hesitation. As he was about to take out the key, he looked at Liana and asked, "What about Will?"
