chapter 67

Vicky turned cold upon this gang's intrusion.It was a death wish they came looking for, especially now that Eric was here.Who would dare attack our base, knowing that we work under the Mafia King?Janet laughed. "I will be free now! Quick! Untie me!"The leader of the gang signaled the man beside him."All of you stay put while we take him away. If you move even a single muscle, you are dead."But before anything could happen, a shadow appeared before them like a ghost and two of the men already dropped dead. The leader looked aghast at the toppling bodies with his eyes popping out of his sockets in horror.Who? When?Only Frank understood what happened. "Boss! Let me deal with them."But the next of his words couldn't come out as he saw Eric grabbing the leader's neck single-handedly as his dark gaze danced in danger and pure bloodlust.If Eric previously admitted that he was extremely angry, then the fury he held right at this moment crossed all the boundaries.And all because of a single wound on Lucy.Just a few moments ago when Eric pushed Lucy along with him from the bullet, he felt that he saved her. But as he toppled onto her on the ground, he saw a thin line of blood trickle down her arm.Despite him covering her, he was a fraction of a second late and the bullet narrowly grazed Lucy's arm.And it was the first time...that the sight of someone's blood flowing out sent him to a frenzy of fury.The Mafia King had killed people. The Mafia King had seen blood spilled out numerous times in his life until now.But the Mafia King couldn't tolerate the sight of Lucy getting hurt.His heart was instantly consumed with the killing intent to end their lives.And before he knew it, he already killed two goons.Eri 's jaw gnashed as he dug his fingers into his neck. "Did you shoot?"The leader paled.His face was turning blue due to breathlessness. Eri  smelled the gun powder coming off his gun. His sharp nose instantly detected the familiar smell."You hurt her…" he strangled his neck until he started gagging. "You hurt her!"Eric roared for the first time like that. His angry voice loudly echoed throughout the base. Even Vicky and his subordinates froze in fear while Janet wet his pants with the invisible pressure building upon him.Frank saw Lucy slowly getting up in a daze. She looked confused.
