As soon as I said that, I for sure thought I'd be like that kid who brought some gum to class but it was the complete opposite. Even the people I thought who would step up were either looking down at the ground—completely trying to avoid eye contact—or still had hesitation in their eyes for the possible blowback even if I did say that I'd take full responsibility.
It was because unless I take them with me or stay in this place to keep Lopez in check, they would definitely get abused even more even if they had a shot of making their grievances known.
However, right as I was about to give them another push, Kaley had already made her way towards us and she took off her right glove before sending a resounding slap to Lopez's already swollen cheek.
The pain she transferred over was substantial but it was secondary— it was more on standing up to someone that held and abused power.
If given the chance, Kaley looked like she wanted to be the one to fight him earlier but I sure as hell wouldn't permit it—not because there was a chance that she'd lose but because I'd definitely put her opponent six feet down the concrete if he managed to get a minuscule of a hit in.
But yeah, Kaley didn't stop with that slap because, like me, she made sure that his fucker wouldn't be able to produce any spawns. It was because she held onto his shoulders before sending her knee—while still wearing her thick kneepads—over to his already beaten-up dick and balls for good measure.
And once again, Lopez couldn't muster the strength to stand up with what he was going through for the second time this day so I just let gravity take him and let him roll around for a little bit.
Then right as I was about to check everyone else if they had a change of heart, Kaley's voice came in just loud enough for everybody to hear:
"Listen here you sorry excuse of a man—which is a word I don't think should describe you: What we've done to you... physically... can be said to be over the top compared to you just touching a little bit above my waist but mentally, that's something that could cause more damage than a bandaid or a dose of painkillers could fix.
I'm lucky I've experienced worst things than that—well, you were stopped before things went further—but that's beside the point."
"..."
"I have the best support system anyone could ask for and I could say that I've become stronger—mentally, than I used to but that doesn't mean I could brush things off just because I can take it without breaking down crying, shutting myself down, blaming myself even though I did nothing wrong, or some bullshit reason I shouldn't even be giving examples now."
"..."
"The point is: you're the fucking scum of society and you probably resort to this awful behavior because as much as I don't want to say this: no one fucking likes you for who you are and the only women who have touched your tiny little dick are the ones you forced your disgusting self into or the ones you paid ten times their regular rate because you're that much of an ick and they had to have some money leftover because you're probably such a bad fucking lay, they'd need therapy right after."
"You f-fucking bitch—"
"Tell me, when you're having sex— no, abusing someone else, do they tell you it's fucking good or all you've heard is just the usual for you like: no, please stop, why did I deserve this? Oh! Or is it just radio silent for you because you either put them to sleep first or you gag them with your stinky drawers? Is that it, huh?! That's probably it, right?! That's—"
"I— no, we'll fucking seduce your wife and your daughter. I hope to god they aren't as ugly as you."
As soon as Lopez heard that, the look on his face was fucking indescribable but I was also wearing the same indescribable expression. I didn't even think Kaley could say the first part of her rant to someone else and I sure as hell didn't think that her last statement would conclude like this.
However, I know that Kaley knew that saying that was the best way to get under Lopez's skin and it definitely worked wonders.
"SAY THAT ONE MORE TIME YOU BITCH—"
Lopez tried to lunge at Kaley not to touch her, but to actually hurt her but I easily tripped him down and stepped on his head so he could only struggle from moving just for a little bit. And to add insult to injury, Kaley had never moved a single step and she was just looking at him amusedly like she was having her first villain moment.
'Is it wrong that I'm horny right now— the fuck am I thinking about?! Fuck it—'
And as I was still in mid-thought, Kaley just simply doubled down with her last statement, "Right, you shouldn't worry we'd do anything bad. Besides, you're gonna learn what consent means and you're wife's gonna know what having an orgasm feels like. But your daughter?
Hmm~ She'll definitely know more than that and I'm pretty sure you're fucking mad not because it's gonna be a disgrace but because one of the reasons you're doing what you are doing is because there's a line you couldn't dare to cross and this is one of the ways you could cope with it. Am I right?"
"...! Y-You... Who the fuck are you?! HUH?! DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE—"
Kaley started to chuckle, "I hit the nail dead-on, huh? Are you finally ready to listen? You see, all I want you to do to prevent that from happening is to apologize to every single person you've wronged here—sincerely, if I might add—and you'd add a favor on top of that PLUS they had to have a person witnessing that you did just that."
"You—"
"I'm not done. And yeah, I'll keep a fucking list of those people and if you missed a single one, you know what's coming to ya."
"..."
From this point on, it was safe to say that Kaley had Lopez by his balls, and the assumption that she was a frickin' witch-psychic solidified even more. And yeah, I added the witch part just now.
Lopez right now was just slumped on the ground wearing a difficult expression and even though it was already past the deadline and no one followed after Kaley, the number of things he had to make up for wasn't worth what he did earlier. He just had this defeated look in his eyes because like he did with me, Kaley figured out his weaknesses and leveraged the shit out of him.
But yeah, we still don't know how was he so fucking important and the convoy that just arrived could probably provide some context.
