Chapter 35

“No, I don’t,” Todd sighed. “But I suppose you’re going to tell me.”

“I think,” Benning began, forcing Todd to his feet and wrapping rope around Todd’s middle, trapping his arms to his sides, “that your slave is anything butungrateful and disloyal. I also think I don’t win unless I have both of you disposed of. Have you ever fished, Mr. Ruger?”

Todd was shoved along to the railing. He glared at Benning, grinding his teeth, and nodded. Benning hadn’t touched him, but was controlling Todd’s movements as if he held each of Todd’s limbs.

“Well, ever wonder what the bait feels like?” Benning said. His eyes glowed red. He made a fist, and pressure around Todd’s chest clamped down like a vise, making him struggle to breathe. Benning flicked his wrist and waved his hand at the railing.
