My Stepbrother's Dirty Little Secret novel Chapter 595

Chapter 595

Adriano slowly lifted his boot, letting the blood drip off the leather onto the concrete as his stare swept across the rest.

“Now,” he whispered, a terrifying smile finally touching the corners of his lips, “Who else feels like telling me a story?”

Morgan started sobbing violently.

I shook my head frantically but it hurt so much to move, “Raphael, Raph, please, you need you to listen,” I leaned toward him, “Cole is trying to make them look guilty. He’s turning everything around. Please…”

Raphael’s expression never changed, “I heard every word.”

“Then help them! Please, don’t hurt them”

For a moment, he simply looked at me. When he finally spoke, his voice was completely calm, “So first…” his hand rested lightly against my shoulder, “…I’m getting you out of these ropes.”

“Raphael-”

“Then I’m taking you to a doctor.”

“I don’t need-”

“You do.”

“I need you to listen!”

“I am listening.”

“No, you’re not!”

“I am,” his eyes stayed locked on mine, as he untied the rope from my wrists, “But right now….the only thing that matters to me…”

His fingers carefully lifted one of my hands, studying the angry red marks circling my wrists.

“…is that somebody put their hands on you.”

I looked into his eyes. There was no panic there. No rage that anyone else would recognize, just absolute focus. The kind that always appeared when he was solving a problem.

“I care that someone struck you hard enough to leave you unconscious.”

His eyes dropped briefly to the blood staining the side of my shirt.
