Chapter 11

　　William seemed to take away all of Minerva’s voice due to that punch to her throat.

　　She cannot scream. She cannot move. Heaven knows she’s already a carrion now. At least she tried to escape from William’s malicious hands. All Minerva knows is that she’s defeated.

　　?William’s fingers dig between her breasts and his lips drowned hers when—

　　“Get the fuck out from my wife!!!” Darwin’s mighty punch sent William rolling on the concrete floor. Blood gushed out from his nose. His elbow was wounded.

　　Darwin immediately helped Minerva to get up. Her body was still shaking, and could barely breathe. “Stay behind me.”

　　Her nod was enough for him to know that she was still there, that this traumatic event hasn’t yet broken her into pieces—broke them into pieces, she and her child.

　　“So brave of you to harm my wife, William.” He prepared his fist for another blow when, as quick as lightning, William struck first.

　　“You are not his husband!” William breathed.
