Chapter 617: Intense fight - Part 1

Maggie's heart skipped a beat as soon as she heard the driver. Yet, she stayed still not giving away her predicament to Jared for that would only raise suspicions when that was the last thing she wanted. She more or less had an intuition as to who was behind them. It had to be Aria. Other than her, nobody else knew where she was unless her Deputy sent someone in secret to follow her.         

    

Maggie was frightened for a moment. But she composed herself quickly when she recalled how skilled Aria was. Though Aria was not as good as she was in fighting, she sure was brilliant at wielding guns and that was enough for them to deal with Jared and the driver, whose skills were still unknown to her.     

'Thank you, Aria.' She expressed in her mind. This was the second time the girl was coming to her rescue and Maggie was more than touched to see her put her life at risk for her when she was in no way inclined to do so.     

Not knowing the thoughts running through Maggie's mind, Jared turned behind to see the flashlights of a car. Although it was quite some distance away from them, he could still see the lights on the deserted and dark road and he smiled to himself.     

"Looks like someone is here to rescue you, Maggie." Jared turned to her and gave her a mysterious look. But Maggie was in no mood to appreciate it. All she was focused on was the car she was in.     

Since the time she had entered the car, she had been trying to find out if there were any weapons inside. While she knew that Jared had no weapon with him, that could not be said the same about the driver. He might be possessing something and that would be disadvantageous to them when Aria caught up with them.     

"I wonder who it might be." Jared mused and held his fingers under his chin. "Is it that lover boy of yours?"     

Maggie felt the anger gushing through her when she heard Jared insulting Ryder. But she was in no position to rebuke him. All she could do was swallow her fury and search for a way to assist Aria in dealing with the demon.     

Jared assumed Maggie's silence as her affirmation and his wicked smile widened. His eyes gleamed with murderous intent and he pressed his wrist, his itch to dip his fingers in blood increasing as seconds passed. Now that the prey was coming to him himself, he had no reason to stop himself from achieving what he wanted.     

"We will end this matter today." He exclaimed. "I can end him and his fantasies about you. We will not have any pests interfering us in the future, not that he has any chance even if he was alive." Jared continued and Maggie's rage reached an all time high.     

Ryder was her bottom line and hearing anything bad about him was enough to send her into a state of absolute madness, let alone listen to someone hatching plans to kill him. Yet, she was helpless. She was in Jared's hold and any small reckless action of hers would foil her plan of escape.      

Moreover, she was not alone. Aria would soon be reaching to her aid and she had to make sure that her actions did not implicate her whatsoever.     

"Poor guy. He does not even know what is awaiting him." Jared sassed and reached behind his seat to pull out a case and Maggie's eyes followed him skeptically. She noticed him picking up a case and she understood at once what the case held.     

She watched him pull out two guns and she narrowed her eyes while Jared started to check their condition as he prepared for the unavoidable fight. Maggie was just about to come up with a strategy to misguide and escape from Jared during his fight with Aria when she saw him pick up a handcuff from the box and her eyes widened in disbelief.     

At first, she did not know what the man wanted to do. But when she saw him smile at her creepily like a freak, she understood his intentions at once and she held her hands behind her back and moved away from him.     

Jared's smile only widened on seeing her alarmed expression and he scooted closer to her until her arms were in reach.     

"I need to make sure you will not run away from me, darling." He commented and gazed at her lovingly. Yet, Maggie only felt nauseated by his stare and she pressed her arms tight behind her back, not allowing Jared to get to them.     

"Come here, dear. Let me bind you to me so that you will not escape from me again. I cannot afford you leaving me again." He stated and moved his arm around her back.     

Maggie only felt sick in the stomach to have him this close to her. His chest was almost pressing onto her body and she could feel the heat radiating off his body. She struggled to move away from him and keep her hands away from his reach, only to fail miserably.     

Jared forced his weight on her, stopping all her movements. Since she was already pressing to the door, Maggie had no way of escape and his weight on her only suffocated her all the more in the closed space.     

"Don't struggle, Maggie. You can never win against me. I will dominate you before you even know it." Jared's words held a lot of meanings and Maggie understood that he was not speaking only about the current predicament they were in. His intentions towards her were clear and she cursed in her mind, unwilling to surrender before him.     

But Jared was too strong for her and soon her left hand was cuffed to his right hand and Maggie could only grit her teeth in frustration. He then pocketed the key and smiled at her in joy.     

Maggie did not even have the time to hurl profanities at him when the driver forcefully pulled the car over, almost forcing Maggie towards the seat in the front.     

Jared stared at the car that had now stopped them from moving ahead and he grinned evilly. "It's time, Maggie dear. Let's end your lover boy once and for all."
