Chapter 178 All alone in the dark

Rose regained consciousness, feeling a great cold air around her. It was freezing and biting, making her flinch continuously. Then, looking at her body, she realized she was stark naked. What warranted her getting naked? And the splitting headache—it was much worse. It felt like a group of boys was playing football, and her head was the field.

She looked around and tried getting up, but unfortunately, her head jammed into an iron surface, injuring her forehead and causing a huge bump that was more painful than ever. Rose finally let her hands feel her surroundings, and by the look of things, she was in a compartment. Feeling the upper part, she realized the reason for the biting cold—someone had locked her up in a freezer.

Who would do such a thing? And then, the memories resurfaced—the look on Emily's face when Rowan brutally smashed the iron rod against her forehead. It was like the ultimate comeback or the fulfillment of a long-time revenge. Rose began shivering so badly; she really needed to leave the fridge or risk being frozen to death. And she felt shattered—Emily could betray her? Why Emily? Why Emily, of all people? She was so damn innocent. Why her?

Hitting the inner lid of the fridge, Rose tried making it open, but the fridge wouldn't budge. She became more and more agitated—it was like the cold had increased threefold. She wouldn't survive if this continued, so she began hitting the refrigerator hard, her blows echoing loudly. Finally, she heard a crack—both from the fridge and from her elbow. She grimaced. If she made her way out of the freezer, Emily would be her dinner tonight.

Rose finally opened the door of the refrigerator and was about to step out when Rowan and Simon came into view. They held grim expressions on their faces—ones that were creepy and murderous.

"So, Rose, the Almighty Rose," Rowan spoke, his voice rising, his fists shaking. "How about we fuck you this instant, girl? And maybe your punishment might reduce."

Simon, who stood behind, was smiling evilly.

"You thought you could use me? Make me break up with my girlfriend and dump me? No way, Rose. That is not working. Let's see if you'll have a mouth after we're done with you this instant."

Simon jumped at her, but Rose pulled out a mini stick and struck him in the face, making him lose his balance and land heavily on the floor, bleeding.

"You useless bitch! Rowan, please catch her!"

Rowan then chased after Rose, who had scampered for safety. She quickly tied a piece of fabric she found opposite a broken chair around herself. It barely covered her body, but it would have to do. Rose ran with all her might. She knew that if Rowan got his hands on her, not only would he have his way with her, but he would kill her. And she wasn't going to die in that jerk's hands.

Seeing how dark everywhere was, Rose wanted to hide in a box until daybreak. But strangely enough, she could feel Rowan's gaze lingering in her direction—it was almost as if he could see in the dark.

"You can't hide, Rose. Come out now. Let's end this quickly. My patience is running out, dear."

Rowan's voice suddenly went up in an unnatural manner, echoing as if three voices were speaking at the same time.

"Let me let you in on a secret—I can see in the dark. So, where you are now, I'm seeing everything over here."

Rowan revealed the truth, and Rose's face paled instantly. She wanted to dash out, but a strong hand enveloped her, delivering a huge blow to her face. Rose passed out quicker than she could imagine.

"Wow. Piece of cake," Rowan exclaimed. But when he turned around, a huge kick was directed at his groin, making him yell so loudly.

"Yeah, that's for what you did to me. And for your information, before you came here, I kind of saw gasoline lying around, and I sprayed it in every corner. And with this lighter I'm holding, you know what that means, don't you, Rowan?"

Rose sighed as she spoke.

"You think you can defeat me so easily? Burn in hell, motherfucker."

Rose lit the lighter, but to her shock, she didn't see Rowan flinch. Instead, he was just smiling—a dangerous smile that made Rose shudder.

"Rose, what you're doing is futile. You know, when I killed Asher and Jeremy, those pussies died like little girls… or should I say, they died like chickens?"

Rowan spat while letting out a sadistic laugh. His smile made Rose's world shatter.

Jeremy—the guy she was beginning to have feelings for. And her darling brother, Asher. What did they do to deserve this?

"How could you be so heartless? What did they do, Rowan?! Answer me, you shitty human!"

Rose yelled at the top of her voice.

Rowan faced her, not blinking once. "Why did you send that video of me and my darling Ava? Why didn't you mind your business, Rose? Now, it has cost you your brother's life!" Rowan thundered furiously.

Rose was badly shaken. The news tore her apart from the inside. Then, she let out a cruel smile.

"You thought you were wicked, Rowan? For killing Asher, I guess all your body parts will pay for it now. Why don't we start with your precious dick?"

Rose declared, and Rowan froze. What was this crazy girl thinking?

"No! Noooooooo!"

But he was too weak to stand up and run. Rose had bound him with chains that cut so deep into his flesh. How she had located such a weapon, Rowan had no idea.

"Let me go! Do you know who I am? You wanna die? I am gonna kill you! And you will receive something worse than Asher's death! I am going to fuck your corpse till it shrinks to oblivion!"

Rowan threatened.

Rose just waved it off, smiling. Her chilling smile made her look like a formidable villain.

"One thing I hate is someone hurting my family. And if you do that, I go on a rampage. And now, with the silence of the school, you're gonna die, Rowan. A brother with a brother, isn't that right, Simon?"

Rose looked back, and Simon, who was holding a pistol, froze. How did Rose find out?

"Oh, you wanted to sneak up on me? How senseless of you. Okay then, receive this!"

Rose swung a hammer, and before Simon could run far, the hammer smashed the back of his head so badly that he fell to the floor, shaking and convulsing.

Rose walked towards him and began chuckling.

"Between the two of you, who placed me in the refrigerator?"

Rose asked, staring at the two captured fools.

Rowan refused to answer, and this only made Rose smile even more.

"You want me to be the bad guy? Okay then. Now, I am the bad guy."

Bringing out a rope, she tied Simon to a pillar. Then, she opened a box containing a chainsaw.

Seeing the chainsaw, Rowan began hyperventilating. Rose walked up to him, caressing his body softly with her tender hands.

"You love this, don't you, Rowan? Okay then… shall we cut your dick off?"

Rose asked, and Rowan began crying, finally breaking down.

"Rose, please! Have mercy! This is my manhood! I can't do without it!"

Rowan cried shamelessly.

Rose, too, began crying. "When you killed my brother, didn't you know I couldn't do without him? You stole him away from me. Why? You stole my heart away from me, fucker. Now, your most prized possession shall be taken."

Rose smiled, then forcefully dragged down Rowan's trousers.

Simon had woken up to the terrible cries of Rowan. Seeing Rose with the chainsaw, he flinched.

Then, heartlessly, Rose began to press the saw into the flesh, digging deep and sawing it off. Rowan screamed insanely, shouting at the top of his voice. But unfortunately for him, Simon realized the building had a soundproof door—no one would save them. Rowan cried badly screaming as his dick got sawed off, falling flat on the floor like a hotdog.

Rose then got up with a grin.

" Never mess with Rose Anderson again."
