Paxton's POV

His right hand strikes me hard across the face and my face burns immediately with pain. I turn to face him squarely and spit in his face.

I want to annoy him. I want to purposely annoy him. I have been wondering why he isn't coming down here to torture me like he vowed to before he came.

I called him a coward because of that.

Even though the plan has failed, beating me up will make him go down because my brothers will never take this. Even if they do not want to help me get Celine and her son out, I'm sure they will come after...
