The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never

“Don’t leave, Bryson.

I really care for you.

”

Suddenly, Bryson whirled around, seizing her by the neck with a lethal glare.

“I don’t harm women, but don’t push me.

”

“Ahem! Ahem.

” Ryleigh found her throat constricted, unable to stifle her coughs.

Bryson released his grip and pushed her aside.

As he turned to leave, he suddenly felt a wave of weakness wash over him, accompanied by a slight dizziness.

He recognized this sensation.

He turned around, and despite being drugged, his intimidating presence frightened Ryleigh so much that her legs gave way, causing her to fall to her knees.

“You dare to drug me? You’re asking for trouble.

”

The drug’s potency was overwhelming.

Bryson’s brows furrowed deeply as he made his way toward the door.

Meanwhile, Ryleigh, now composed, glanced at the burning incense nearby, feeling her body gradually warming up.

“Bryson, you can’t leave.

You’re mine.

It wasn’t easy for me to get rid of Melina.

I won’t allow you to be with Hannah.

”

The drug’s effects were so intense that Bryson struggled to maintain his composure as he approached the door.

In the midst of it all, Ryleigh had discarded her dress and hugged Bryson from behind.

“Bryson, be with me.

I don’t need titles or status.

I just want to be with you.

”

“I think you’re courting death.

”

As the drug’s effects intensified, Bryson’s grasp on sanity began to slip.

He whirled around, and his hand shot out to clasp Ryleigh’s neck.

“Ah! Help! HELP!”

Ryleigh’s screams pierced the air as she flailed desperately.

She hadn’t anticipated this turn of events.

The supposed lust was replaced instead by Bryson’s intense desire to kill.

The drug’s potence made Bryson uncontrollably strong.

Ryleigh felt her consciousness slip as Bryson’s grip tightened.

Her hands fell to her sides, and her body went limp.

She was on the verge of passing out.

In a split second, Bryson managed to control Ryleigh with one hand.

Repulsed, he wrapped her in a sheet, shoved her into the bathroom, and locked the door behind her.

Bang!

He pushed the door open and staggered out of the room.

His vision began to blur.

He summoned enough strength to call Yosef.

Then, everything went black.

After receiving the phone call, Yosef hurried to find Bryson and made a point to inform Franco first.

Upon hearing that Bryson might be in trouble, Hannah stood up.

“I’ll help you look for him.

”

“Hannah, let us handle it.

” Grace held Hannah’s arm and reasoned, “Your eyes haven’t fully recovered yet.

You should be careful not to get hurt.

”
