There must be revenge!

Eric's expression darkened slightly. "What, did you wish it was that William?"

Ella's eyes were filled with a burning rage. She gritted her teeth and said, "That bastard! I want to cut him up myself! Eric, you can't let him get away with this!"

Eric reached out and pulled her into his arms, gently caressing her bruised and swollen face. His smile was devilishly charming, his eyes flickering with a cold light.

"Don't worry… anyone who dares to hurt you won't be spared."

Ella, still unclothed, realized their skin was touching and quickly pushed him away, but in doing so, she strained an injury.

The pain and swelling between her thighs made Ella feel disoriented…

"Eric… you… last night… how did you end up on the ship? Aren't you supposed to be away? Why did you do this to me?"
