Finley went straight for the kid’s crotch–on purpose, no question.
The boy screamed, collapsing.. Finley got dragged off, but it was too late–he was outnumbered. They pinned him down and beat him bloody.
One of the boys called an ambulance: In the chaos, Finley bolted.
He ran straight to Sienna’s place.
Sienna lived in a run–down apartment complex. She hadn’t been back in a while–still cleaning when Finley burst through the door.
She jumped, eyes darting. “Finley? What are you doing here? Is something wrong?”
She stood in the doorway, voice low. “If you need something, we can talk out here. It’s… kind of cramped inside.”
Finley pulled her into his arms, blood still dripping from his nose. “Sienna, I love you. You’re all I have left. Please–you’re my only
love.”
Sienna struggled, panic flashing in her eyes.
Next second, Finley saw it clear as day-
There was another man inside.
Suddenly, a fist came out. Finley’s nose exploded, blood everywhere. His vision blurred.
The man was huge–built like a farmer, dark skin, hands like hammers.
Skinny Finley didn’t stand a chance. One punch and he was seeing stars.
The man–William–kicked Sienna to the floor too.
“Explain this! I’ve been busting my ass back home, working the fields so you two could live in the city, and this is what you do? Cheat
on me?!”
Finley tried to shield Sienna. William kicked him again, harder.
Right then, Tina came home from school.
She was still pissed at Finley for abandoning her earlier.
Her eyes gleamed. “Dad, it’s HIM! He forced Mom. She tried to fight him off, but he’s a teacher–she was scared!”
Sienna clung to William’s leg, sobbing. “Honey, I didn’t betray you. He–he took advantage of me! I was scared!”
William wasn’t the sharpest. He believed them. His rage turned back to Finley.
Punch after punch. Two of Finley’s teeth flew out. But he kept staring at Sienna.

Chapter 10
She wouldn’t meet his eyes.
Finley started laughing–wild, broken laughter. His hands shook as he pulled out his phone.
Man, let me show you. Let me show you how your wife begged to get into my bed.”
sienna’s face went pale. Sweat poured down her temples. She lunged for the phone, but William shoved her aside.
He watched the video, then lost it completely–grabbed Sienna by the hair and dragged her toward the door. She screamed, scalp
earing.
‘Honey, please! I’m sorry! I won’t do it again!”
William was panting, furious. “You’re coming back with me! Back to the farm! And you’re never leaving again, you hear me?!”
“That worthless daughter? I’m selling her off the second we get home. Some farmer can knock her up and get sons out of her. I’m done with this ‘education‘ crap. You two made a fool out of me!!”
Finley lay on the floor, laughing so hard he was crying. Blood and tears smeared across his face.
Suddenly, heavy footsteps echoed up the stairwell. Finley glanced at the open door.
A group of security guards stormed in, grabbed him, and threw him into the trunk of a car.
It was the same crew from earlier–friends of the boy Finley had attacked.
His name was Jake. His family had money. And now his son couldn’t have kids.
Jake’s friends had followed Finley, tracked him down, dragged him back.
Seeing Finley half–dead and covered in blood, they hesitated.
I’d been tailing Finley the whole time.
I lowered my binoculars, got out of my car, and walked over.
I leaned in, voice calm. “He made your friend infertile. Only fair if he knows how that feels, don’t you think?”
The kid’s eyes lit up.
I turned and walked away.
Behind me, Finley started screaming.
I didn’t look back.
