Chapter 40: Chapter 40: MY BOYS FIND YOU... DELICIOUS.

"To be honest, I found you quite attractive," Gareth shrugged, his eyes narrowing with disdain. "But now, you're nothing but a sour sight in my eyes. Do you think the young master will come and save you like last time?" He mocked, abruptly halting his predatory circling.

"But don't worry," he continued, leaning in close to her trembling face, "my boys find you... delicious." A depraved smile twisted Gareth's features as he revelled in her fear.

Vivian, understanding the full horror of his words, screamed at the top of her lungs. "Ah yes, scream all you like, but no one is coming for you," Gareth burst into cruel laughter. "Hey, you, shut her up!" he commanded, and one of his goons slapped Vivian, sending her sprawling to the floor.

"Even though I like your screams, I don't recall giving you permission," Gareth barked, his voice dripping with malice. Vivian's eyes were wet with tears, her spirit teetering on the edge. It was clear that Gareth intended to break her mind before he ended her life.

Gareth's voice, a rasp of sandpaper against stone, cut through the ringing in Vivian's ears. "Pin her down," he snarled, his words a prelude to a predator's feast. "Enjoy yourselves until sunrise," he cackled, a sound devoid of humour, "but don't neglect the real prize – break her spirit."
