Chapter 79

Killian’s POV

“I want to deal with them so bad!” Liana growled, pacing back and forth like a wild animal in a cage, her fists clenched, her body trembling with pure fury. I could feel the rage rolling off her in waves, and I knew if I didn’t do something soon, she might lose control completely.

“Liana, calm down,” I said softly, stepping closer, trying to make her meet my eyes. “My men are already taking care of it. They were tortured just how I wanted them to be tortured until they spilled the truth.”

But she wasn’t listening. Her body was tense, her breathing heavy, as if each second that passed without her being out there handling it herself was driving her closer to breaking.

Ryan was in his room. He’d slept off shortly after we got home. Liana had made sure he took a hot bath, rubbed him dry with her own hands, and tucked him into bed while whispering to him that everything was okay now. But the moment his eyes closed, hers turned blood-red.
