The image of those weary eyes briefly flickered in Raegan’s mind.
Then, in a burst of defiance, she dug her sharp nails into Cary’s frenzied wrist, tearing at his flesh.
Cary winced in pain and released her. He then raised his hand to strike her. “Damn you! Ah!”
Pushed to the brink, Raegan tapped into a deep well of strength.
With no hesitation, she grabbed his arm and bit down hard. His scream of pain echoed through the corridor.
Desperate to save herself, Raegan then dashed toward the elevator.
Just as the elevator doors were closing, she gathered all her remaining energy and yelled, “Darryl! Save me!”
Darryl noticed a slender hand reaching out to stop the elevator’s closing doors.
Lazily, Darryl stuck his foot out and inquired, “Who called me?”

The next second, Raegan threw herself into his arms, pushing him back a couple of steps.
“Damn it!” Darryl grumbled, visibly annoyed. He quickly tried to push her away, wanting to keep his distance. “I’m telling you I’ve met countless women. I’m not easily swayed anymore. Don’t try any tricks with me,” he warned.
Despite his reluctance, Raegan clung to him. Her slender and soft arms wrapped around him with all her remaining strength fueled by her strong sense of escaping danger.
“Damn it!” Darryl cursed under his breath, again and again. He found himself blaming her alluring scent for his hesitation to push her away.
Then, Raegan’s perfume struck him as familiar. Upon lifting her chin, her beautiful face emerged from beneath her disheveled hair.
Darryl’s eyes widened in surprise. He asked in a low voice, “Raegan?”
Raegan’s light fragrance intoxicated Darryl. He had never smelt such an aroma from any other woman.
Unbeknownst to him, Raegan never wore perfume. The scent was naturally hers.

Feeling uneasy, Darryl turned his head and muttered, “Let me go. I’m suffocating…”
Just as the elevator doors were about to shut, Cary charged at Raegan again. His eyes reddened, giving him a fierce appearance.
“Give her to me… Just give her to me!”
Cary’s fierce look and his odd behavior suggested something was wrong with him, Darryl, with a hand on Raegan’s back, straightened up quickly. His tone was icy and haughty. “Try me.”
Cary froze momentarily upon hearing this. Just as he was about to attack Darryl, Darryl delivered a hard kick.
Bang! A loud noise was heard.
The power of a grown man Like Darryl far exceeded Raegan’s who was under the drug’s influence.
