Forced Marriage: Escaping Her Monster

Wyatt looked at the woman breaking down. 

He had no idea what was going to happen today but when Viper asked for an EMP, he got alert. He tampered with the weapons and made sure they work only for a short time and get stuck after that.

Well, if Viper was smart and used the weapon to shoot the target, the target would be dead, but he was sure those blockheads will show off first.

He expected a speech from Viper before he kills Jerlina too, but he wasn't sure if it happened.

Seriously! Hasn't he watched movies? If the villains go in and do what they want without taunting or teasing, they'd succeed.

Those attention wh*res! They have to make themselves lose.

Anyway, when Viper came to him for weapons, he agreed as per his agreement with TJ. And by how confident Viper was, he guessed he has someone high on the totem pole supporting him.

As someone who deals with weapons, he has access to a lot of people and some are not to be trifled with. He might have been wrong, but the Erling name is not something he would mess around with.

The money he promised could last for two lifetimes. But Viper doens't know he voluntarily slapped a bounty on his own head.

Fool! 

As if after creating this ruckus, Erling will let Viper live!

Anyhow, I'll leave here. Let TJ deal with everything here.

Of course, he had to put his safety first and had to keep his kids safe and so he didn't inform Jeremy. Also, he was constantly under surveillance by Viper's men.

When he heard today is the day, Viper's going to orchestrate his plan, he kept his most loyal men by his side and wanted to see what is going on.

He was planning on joining the winning side. But then he saw it.

Viper threatening this woman now crying.

Take someone else's sister, he won't care. He's not someone with standards.  But to take someone else's wife who is the mother of a baby... That's sick even to his standard.

But this one has guts, he'd say. She kicked right at the Viper's balls making him leave with her baby. And he left three of his men to "take care" of her.

He was watching from a distance till then and decided to help. Three men against a woman is not fair after all.

There were some sneers of the men saying swallow this and suck that... Next, he heard a scuffle.

He picked up his pace.

When he walked there, even he was a little surprised. Two of the men were on the ground with the pointed heels she was wearing sticking in their eyes. She was sitting on the third man and pushed the muzzle of the gun he had(probably or it could be hers) into his mouth.

"Swallow this, dipsh!t!"

Without thinking twice, she pulled the trigger. 

"What do you want?" she asked pointing the gun at him. Her eyes were focused and her hand wasn't shaking. There was a fire in her eyes. 

And so, he brought her with him promising to get her baby.

And now she is crying?

Women are weird, aren't they?

I am glad my woman was perfect... Too perfect she was taken from me too soon.

Jerlina tried to touch Scarlett's shoulder to comfort her but she shirked it off. Jerlina took a step back. She figured Scarlett might be feeling overwhelmed by everything and is jumpy.

"You're not safe yet," Wyatt said and Jerlina looked at his face. "I gather there should be... more... dangers."

Snipers to be precise. They bought some rifles that he couldn't tamper with, but he didn't want to tell her that. If he said that, she'd be mad he didn't inform them about this and she won't talk on his behalf with his in-laws.

Well, he did give them only the short-range ones. So the hunters won't be too far.

Survive somehow! I need to make sure my children are safe.

Jerlina knitted her brows as she felt like Wyatt is hiding a lot.

"There are more of Viper's men all around. Get out of town for some days... Take the keys," he passed her the keys to his monster truck.

Jerlina grimaced. "Isn't this the keys for this car?" she pointed at the monster truck. "Ha...ha..." She thought he was kidding but he was seriously trying to make her take that car.

"What about that car?" She pointed at one of the car behind. A plain silver Fiat.

"You don't want this car?" Wyatt looked a bit offended. "It's like a vehicle and a tractor with a dragster engine."

"Oh? Great! But I'll be fine with that one," Jerlina curled her lips.

Wyatt nodded. "Wait!" he climbed inside the truck and brought out a pack. "Sat phone with EMP shield. Have it with you."

"Thank you," Jerlina got it with both of her hands. 

"Remember, I saved your life," he added.

"I will," Jerlina nodded with assurance. 

He's not lying. He did save her life and Cia's and probably Scar's too.

  "Scar," Jerlina tried to speak with Scarlett but Wyatt pushed her towards the car. Jerlina saw a bullet pass just beside her and winced. 

"Get out of here soon. You owe me one, remember," Wyatt pushed her towards the car, opened the door, and pushed her in.

"You can drive a stick, right?" he asked and Jerlina nodded. 

Jerlina started the car and reversed out. She saw Wyatt walking towards the commotion and Scarlett was still on the ground kneeling.

She knew she has to go to the city for her to be safe. If Peyton is like this, Wolford would be much terrible. 

Ah, my baby's grave... I'll ask Scar to take care of it later. 

Drawing out his weapon, Wyatt passed Scarlett. She was staring at the commotion happening to her front as if she was in a trance.

"All these... for her..?"

Wyatt heard her mumble.

"Don't you have to be somewhere else?" Wyatt reminded her and walked towards the commotion. 

If he leaves his men now he won't be respected by them anymore. Already some of his men are not happy he decided to openly oppose Viper now.

-----

  Jeremy was careful as he drove. He tried to call anyone and everyone but no one's call went through. It scared him.

He drove carefully looking at the woods. It was then he noticed an odd thing – a reflection to be precise.

He slowed his car and took a good look. That area seemed uneven and even around there, he saw the terrain looking unnatural.

Are there snipers there?

Jeremy looked at the back of the car he used. His jeep was still at the logging site and he borrowed someone else's car. As expected, his men had a lot of weapons, and a binocular.

He slowed down to draw those men towards him, but he saw them pointing them at another car that was coming in the opposite direction.

Is that...Jerlina?

What is she doing here?
