The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 508

Tara lets out a dark, mocking laugh, her fingers tightening around his windpipe. "Try me."

She squeezes harder. Eric's face flushes a deep, suffocating purple, his frantic struggles growing weak as his lungs scream for air. Just as his eyes roll back, she releases him. He collapses into the mud, coughing violently and gasping for breath, staring up at her with a mix of absolute terror and burning resentment.

Tara stands up, casually dusting the dirt off her jeans. She stares down at him with an intimidating, predatory gaze. "From now on, you do exactly as I say and take me out of here. Otherwise, I will make you regret the day you were born."

Terrified out of his mind, Eric frantically nods. Tara shoves him back into the driver's seat and orders him to keep moving. The entire way to the village, he nervously checks the rearview mirror, his eyes wide with fear. He doesn't dare try another trick, terrified she might actually bury him in these remote woods.

Before long, the rickety trike sputters to a halt at the edge of the village. As soon as they arrive, Tara drags him off the bike and ties him securely to a thick tree, leaving him to rot. If she wasn't so desperate to find Bianca, she would drag this creep straight to the cops. For now, she plans to leave him here and hand him over to the authorities on her way out. Scum like him can't be left loose to prey on other innocent women.

Bianca is tied tightly to a concrete pillar, a filthy gag stuffed in her mouth. Her eyes are wide with sheer panic. The moment she sees Tara, fresh tears spill down her cheeks, a wave of profound relief washing over her face.

Tara sprints forward, pulling the gag from Bianca's mouth and frantically tearing at the thick ropes binding her wrists. "Bianca, are you okay? Who brought you to this godforsaken place?" she asks, her eyes sweeping over her friend for any major injuries.
