Matilda tried to intervene, but she’d already been force fed so much alcohol that just standing was a struggle. When Harlan’s thus grabbed she couldn’t even break free.
Koreling on the floor, Aubree coughed violently. Her throat burned with dryness, and all she could think about was how desperately she needed a dr
Het vision grew increasingly hazy, Biting down hard on the tip of her tongue until she drew blood, Aubree forced herself to stay conscious. Through gritted teeth, she shared, “Ono… more… bottle.”
The metalic taste of blood and the sharp pain jolted her back to clarity. Her forehead was beaded with sweat. “Hold on, she told herself desperately. Hi collapse now, both Matilda and I are finished!”
Gasping for breath, Aubree fixed Harlan with a fierce glare. The sudden intensity radiating from her actually made him finch momentarily
Realizing he’d been intimidated by a mare slip of a girl Harlan cursed under his breath, “Fuck this! Hurry the hell up and force that last bottle down her throat. Let’s see how tough this little bitch really is”
Harlan’s thug approached with the last bottle of liquor. Truth be told, Aubree looked utterly wrecked, kneeling on the ground, using every ounce of strength just to keep herself from collapsing face first. Her upper body was soaked halfway through with liquor, and her ponytail had somehow come undone, her hair tangled and plastered drunkenly across her face in complete disarray.
Just as the bottle was about to touch her lips, the door to the private room was violently kicked open once more.
Before anyone could react, the thug approaching Aubree with the bottle was kicked flying
With a loud crash, the bottle hit the floor, spilling liquor

Aubree looked up, dazed. When she recognized the man, her eyes instantly welled up with tears. Red–eyed and gritting her teeth, she struggled to her fest, pointed at Harlan, and slurred defiantly, “Go to hell, asshole! My knight in shining armor is here!”
As soon as she finished speaking, her body went limp, and she began to collapse, but Bowen caught her in his arms just in time.

Holding her protectively in his arms, Bowen looked down at the disheveled, alcohol–drenched figure. His eyes darkened with a gathering storm of fury he looked up. “Ethan, Samson, handle then”
No sooner had he given the order than Ethan and Samson sprang into action, ruthlessly pummeling everyone in the private room and leaving the whole group sprawled and groaning on the floor.
Harlan screamed and struggled as Ethan and Samson forced him to his knees in bont of Bowen
Harlan shouted, “Who the hell are you haards? Daring to lay hands on me! You got any idea who you’re messing with?”

Pointing at Bowen, Olle said with a smirk, “And him? Let me introduce you properly, this is Bowen Turner.”
Bowen shot him a glare, inwardly grumbling, “Since when did he start addressing Bree so intimately?”
At the mention of Bowen’s name, Harlan’s legs went weak. People in Rithol City might not recognize his face, but his name alone was enough to strike fear into anyone who heard it.
Harlan thought he’d only offended Mr. Lane, little did he know he’d crossed paths with someone far more terrifying.
He said, “Mr. Turnert I swear I had no
no idea she was under your protection!”
While Olle could still smile and say a few words to him, Bowen wouldn’t hold back at all.

Barely two minutes after getting in the car, the girl who had been so docile in Bowen’s arms stirred with a soft, dated murmur Aubree blinked blearily, her once clear eyes now clouded with a drunken haze. Looking up at Bowen, she slurred, “Who are you?”
