Chapter 42

• BRIGID'S POV
• Who the fuck did Marion think she was? Thinking she could threaten me and survive it. I would fucking ruin her. I would make sure she paid in full—every last drop.

The kind that lived under the skin and whispered warnings into your bones. My heartbeat thudded louder than my footsteps as I moved through the foyer, every sense on high alert.
