Scarlett's POV
I've not been at rest since after what had happened to Dave. I don't know if he's dead or alive and Raphael doesn't want to tell me anything.
"What are you thinking so deeply about?" I was in his arms while he was seated on his office chair.
"Nothing." I whispered and his grip tightened around me.
"I don't like to repeat myself. What has got you in deep thought?"
"I feel horrible for causing Dave's death. I haven't been able to sleep well at night since after what had happened."
He went still then his hands went to my neck and he began to choke me. I started hitting him.
"W…what is w….wrong with you?" I was choking already and he didn't care.
I was losing my breath and I felt helpless. "You dare pity an enemy? You're making me feel like I made a grave mistake by replacing Alexa with you. You're getting worthless and soft."
"S.. sorry, p…please." My sight was already getting blurry and I was getting weak.
