The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never

“Hannah! You’ve been a thorn in my side for too long.

Now that you know, I can’t let you leave here alive.

”

Hannah raised her arm to shield her mouth and nose from the acrid smoke.

Her eyes were sharp and unwavering despite the suffocating air.

Makenna had chosen the wrong enemy.

Hearing Makenna’s hysterical outburst, Hannah sprang into action.

Despite her slender frame, Hannah was formidable.

Using her physical prowess, she swiftly overpowered Makenna.

Panting heavily, she delivered a few hard kicks to Makenna’s chest, eliciting agonized screams as Makenna tried to wriggle free.

Hannah bent down, grabbed Makenna’s hair, and began dragging her out.

She couldn’t leave her to perish in the flames.

Just as she was about to shut it, the sharp smell of gasoline hit her, causing her to cough violently.

Bang!

A loud explosion sounded.

The entire door frame collapsed, narrowly missing Hannah.

Reacting quickly, Hannah gritted her teeth and pulled Makenna away from the collapsing door.

They barely escaped with their lives.

Makenna’s voice trembled with fear as she pleaded, “Hannah! Please, let me go.

I wasn’t thinking clearly.

I’ve learned my lesson!”

Hannah’s expression remained cold and unyielding as she dragged Makenna down the stairs.

“Hannah, I was wrong.

We’re both part of the Mitchell family.

Give me another chance.

You don’t want to tarnish the family’s name, do you? Spare me for Bryson’s sake.

”

Hannah halted, her eyes narrowing.

“Are you threatening me?”

Makenna shook her head frantically.

“No, I wouldn’t dare.

I’m just stating the facts.

If you expose me, the Mitchell family will be mired in a public scandal.

”

Hannah sneered.

“And if I leave you here to burn, will that affect the Mitchell family?”

Makenna was too weak to get up.

With the firefighters and police still on their way, she faced the prospect of death.

Her eyes widened in terror.

“No, please…”

Makenna tried to keep pleading, but Hannah had heard enough.

She dragged her to the hospital foyer downstairs and threw her onto the floor.

Dotson, spotting Hannah, let out a sigh of relief and rushed over.
