Tracy had grown up pampered and protected, living a life of comfort. By all rights, her skin should have been flawless. Yet now, deep and terrifying scars ran across her chest.

What the heck?

Simon froze in shock. Why did Tracy have such horrifying scars?

Before he could make sense of it, Tracy suddenly lifted her leg and kicked him hard between the legs.

“Ugh!”

Agonizing pain contorted Simon’s face. He doubled over, stumbling back with cold sweat dripping down his forehead.

His face turned grim, his hand trembled as he pointed at her, and his voice broke with rage. “Y–you witch! You-”

But the fury in his throat choked off before he could form a full sentence.

By then, Tracy had already ripped free from the ropes, torn the blindfold from her eyes, and pushed herself up from the chair.

Just as Ivy had warned, Simon wasn’t alone. Five rough–looking men lingered in the room, their expressions cold and predatory.

The hotel room looked ordinary enough, but a camera was mounted by the bed, pointing straight at where Tracy had been tied.

The dim lighting made the air heavy and the tension worse. On the table, two opened bottles of liquor gave off a faintly sweet scent, one that turned her stomach.

To anyone else, it might have seemed like nothing more than alcohol. To Tracy, it was nauseating–too much like the memories she wanted to forget,

When she hadn’t seen the setup, she could force herself to stay calm, to trick Simon into talking.

But now, staring at it all, she felt her grip on reason slipping away.

And then Simon’s voice cracked through the haze, spitting venom. “Get her! I want all of you to take turns with that bitch! I’ll make her beg for me to claim her!”

The five men didn’t hesitate. Paid to do a job and promised pleasure as a reward, they rolled up their sleeves and advanced toward her with ugly grins.

Their vile expressions shredded the last thread of calm in her mind.

“Get away from me! Stay back!” she shouted, her voice trembling through the earpiece.

Hearing her distress, Ronald quickened his pace toward the elevator.

He couldn’t see what was happening, but from her tone alone, he knew something was terribly

wrong.

Damn, Simon!

Just as Ronald was about to reach the elevator, several men carrying bats and daggers appeared from nowhere, surrounding him.

The leader twirled a steel rod casually and sneered. “Well, well, Mr. Ronald. Long time no see.”

Ronald’s blood ran cold as he recognized their faces.

Preston’s men.

If Preston’s thugs were here, that meant Preston himself had to be nearby. And worse, he had anticipated Ronald’s move, setting the ambush on purpose.

Meanwhile, Tracy’s broken voice still came through the earpiece. Every word was like a slash cutting into Ronald’s heart.

His expression hardened. He didn’t waste breath. With a sharp step forward, he drove his fist into the leader’s jaw.

He needed to end this fast. Tracy was waiting for him to save her.

Tracy seemed trapped in a sealed–off world of her own, fighting back at anyone who dared to

come near.

She snatched up a chair and hurled it at the man charging toward her. But her mind betrayed her–the blow missed its mark, striking only his arm.

The man bellowed in anger, his face twisting, and he lunged at her even harder.

Ivy’s eyes flashed cold, and she was just about to move–when someone reacted even faster.

Back at the academy, Tracy had lived in constant alert, always braced for sudden danger. So
