“Where do you think you are going with those bags?” Xander interrogated as soon as he cornered her.

“Of course, I’m leaving you!” She said, standing her ground, despite the fear in her eyes.

“Why?”

“You forgot to mention how dangerous you were.”

Xander let out a deep throaty chuckle. “Sweetheart, you didn’t ask.”

“I don’t care! I don’t want to be a part of this anymore!” She insisted.

Xander shook his head. “Too late. We are already married. You now belong to me, and divorce is out of the question.”

"Good morning, Lex," Asher greeted, his voice laced with curiosity. "What's the update?"

"The case has been reopened," Xander informed him, a faint satisfaction evident in his tone. "Release Olivia in the evening."

Asher chuckled. "That was quick. Your wife must be relieved."

"She is," Xander replied, his voice softening momentarily. "Although, I'll admit, I wouldn't have minded keeping Olivia there for longer. Starve her for a few days—teach her a proper lesson."

"Your wife wouldn't allow it," Asher said with a knowing laugh. "Aurora's soft-hearted, even to people who don't deserve it. But that's what makes her different from us."
