Liam could not stop grinning while walking through the garden.
"Let's hurry up. I can't wait to reach the shed!", Liam told Thomas while extending his strides.
"You look pleased with yourself." Thomas observed.
"Of course, everything is perfect!"
Thomas found Liam's comment not appropriate. How can everything be perfect when they didn't follow the original plan? And the ending outcome is different. They were supposed to bully Aiden's girl in front of him and then beat him senseless.
Thomas can tell that things don't seem right. He is missing something and wants to find out what that is.
"You don't really think that Madison will seduce him into a relationship?"
Liam snorted. "I'm not delusional like Madison. The moment drugs wear off, which is not going to happen in next five-to-six hours, Aiden will probably beat her senseless. But that is not my problem. Let's go. It's finally time to teach that bitch a lesson."
"I thought that the plan was for all of us to get back at Aiden. What is with this last minute change to let Madison have him? How is that a punishment for him?"
Liam paused for a second before explaining: "You don't know. Aiden is so smitten with his girl that splitting them up and making it his fault is the biggest punishment he can get."
"That is not how I see it." Thomas didn't buy Liam's explanation.
Liam stopped walking and faced Thomas. "And how do you see it?"
"I see that Aiden got Madison for the night, and the only one who is getting punished is his fiancée. Do you have a grudge against Aiden or the girl?"
Liam shrugged before resuming his steps. "To be honest, I have a grudge against both of them."
"How did that girl anger you?" Thomas followed Liam, unwilling to drop the topic.
"She is associated with Aiden. Does she need to do more? Stop looking for something when there is nothing. And let's hurry…"
Liam froze at the sight of the girl running toward them.
Thomas was surprised that Liam stopped. Didn't he just say that they should hurry? He followed his line of sight and saw Sarah.
"Isn't that, Sarah?", Thomas asked Liam.
Liam didn't respond. He was not able to say a word. His mind was racing. What is Sarah doing here? Isn't she supposed to be in the shed, tied up, terrified and begging the guys to let her go? Liam's chest was constricted, and he had trouble breathing. Sight of Sarah sprinting toward him invoked unpleasant memories.
Earlier that evening…
Jasper and Ellie are heading toward the stables. Sarah didn't return after some time, and as promised, Jasper is going with Ellie to make sure that Sarah is OK.
They went into stables, but besides horses, they didn't find anyone.
Jasper scratched his head in confusion. "Sarah came this way… is there something else nearby?"
"Shhh…", Ellie lifted her finger indicating him to be quiet. She thinks that she heard something.
Jasper followed Ellie toward the shed on the side, and from the open window, they heard an irritated male voice: "Noah, you better tell me what is going on here. I'm losing my patience! What is with that behavior?"
There was some shuffling inside, and Jasper and Ellie exchanged glances before rushing to the door.
Jasper opened the door while placing his hand in front of Ellie, preventing her from going in first. They don't know what is inside, and he found her to be reckless for just rushing in. She can't help her friend if she gets hurt... and they are not sure if Sarah is even inside.
Both Jasper and Ellie paused at the sight of three men sprawled on the ground while the fourth one is holding onto Sarah's ankle.
They can see Sarah rolling her eyes impatiently at Noah who is looking at her pleadingly.
"What do you want?" Sarah frowned at Noah.
Noah let go of Sarah's leg and his face lit up while he explained: "Once with a leg, but don't knock me out. And then once with hand, it's OK if I pass out."
Jasper's mouth was slightly open while watching Sarah kick Noah fiercely before rendering him unconscious with one swift move of her hand.
Only then Sarah noticed Jasper and Ellie at the door. After a second of awkwardness, Sarah stepped out and said while passing by them: "Go back and pretend you didn't see anything. Close the door before you leave."
Jasper and Ellie watched Sarah dash toward the resort buildings and then glanced inside at the four unconscious men. Jasper observed the inside of the shed for few seconds before closing the door.
"I think we should listen to Sarah. Let's get out of here.", he put his arm around Ellie's shoulders and two of them went back toward the garden.
Back to present…
On the outer edge of the garden, Sarah spotted Liam and stopped abruptly two steps from him.
"Liam…", she squeezed through her teeth while breathing heavily.
Sarah wanted to jump at him and end his life in one move, but that would be too easy. She knows that he is involved in drugging Aiden and setting him up with Madison. For that, Liam will pay with many hours of agonizing screams.
Liam was lost in Sarah's vicious glare when he felt his knees shaking and a warm sensation spread from his crotch area, downward.
Sarah scrunched her nose. The foul smell invaded her senses instantly.
"Still filthy… you are lucky I don't have time now. But I will find you…", Sarah's head jerked toward Thomas. "…and you too."
No matter how enraged Sarah is, she knows that she needs to hurry and find Aiden, so she didn't linger. And there is no place on Earth where these guys can hide from her wrath.
"What was that?", Thomas asked Liam while looking after Sarah who was already out of sight. He sniffed few times. "Why do I smell urine?" Thomas looked at Liam. "Did you just…"
"Shut up!" Liam screamed and started running after Sarah (toward the resort building where suites are).
"Hey, what about the others?", Thomas yelled after him.
"You go and check on them!", Liam responded without looking back. He didn't dare to look at Thomas. He didn't go after Sarah. He needs to go back to his room and change! This is the third time that Sarah caused him to wet himself… and Thomas saw it!
Thomas was utterly confused. No matter how much Sarah glared at them, she is just a skinny girl. What can she do? They are obviously bigger and stronger than she is. Did Liam wet himself? What was that about? Nothing made sense. He decided to hurry toward the shed and see what is going on.
