âDonât be scared, little girl.
Iâve no desire to harm you.
Comply, and Iâll ensure youâre well looked after.
â
The other man wore a far more menacing look, brandishing a sharp Swiss Army knife with a threatening snarl, âDefy us, and I wonât hesitate to mar that pretty face of yours.
â
The chill wind whipped around Raegan, tossing her hair wildly as her complexion turned ashen with terror.
âDid you hear that?â the man with the dagger questioned, his lecherous gaze roaming unchecked over Raeganâs ample bosom.
Regaining her composure, Raegan could do nothing but nod continuously while a visible shiver ran through her body.
The terror within her was so overwhelming, it rendered her thoughts incoherent.
Noticing her fright, the two menâs wariness diminished considerably.
They believed that wielding their daggers wasnât necessary to intimidate fragile young girls like Raegan.
With a grin, one man caressed Raeganâs soft cheek, murmuring, âSuch a good girl, indeed.
â
âEnough, Silas, we should get moving.
My patience is wearing thin,â the other grumbled, his rough exterior starkly evident as he began to disrobe.
The sight of Raegan earlier had ignited an impatient lust within him.
They had been unable to shake Raeganâs attractive image since they spotted her at noon.
It was only because of Silasâ keen observation, noticing the man Raegan had argued with lingering nearby, that they had bided their time.
Eventually, these two men had slipped away from their group and trailed Raegan up the mountain, stealthily waiting for the moment to pounce.
Silas, observing the otherâs scant attire of just shorts, let out a laugh and playfully chided, âNeal, youâre in quite the hurry.
Try not to scare the little girl.
â
Neal responded with a chuckle, âThink sheâs startled by this? Just wait.
Thereâs scarier stuff on the way.
â
Raegan, witnessing Nealâs advance, violently shook her head and wept, as though she were desperate to convey a message.
This piqued Silasâ curiosity.
He halted Neal, suggesting, âHold up.

Letâs hear what she has to say.
â
Impatient, Neal spat out a curse, âWhatâs gotten into you? Quit dragging this out.
â
Silas reassured, âNo need to worry.
Her friends are out cold.
Nobodyâs going to search for her.
â
With those words, Silas moved closer to Raegan, crouched before her, and warned, âIâm about to remove the towel.
Make a sound, and Iââ1l make sure you regret it.
Got it?â
Reagan sensed that beneath Silasâ mild exterior lurked the most indecent of nature.
Silas masqueraded as a kind soul under the sunâs gaze.
