Chapter 123
I looked down at David, now sitting on the floor and clutching his stomach, and let out a short laugh.
“Let’s see how much you can endure.”
1 grabbed Elijah’s hand and led him back to the wing.
“Love…”
He spoke as we walked, his face thoughtful.
“Am I a monster for not feeling sorry for him?”
I stopped and gently cupped his face, guiding his eyes to mine.
“Of course not. That idiot destroyed your life out of envy. He doesn’t deserve your pity, your compassion, or even your mercy. What he deserves… is to pay. For every second of the new reality waiting for him here.”
A small smile curled on his lips.
“Yeah… you’re right. I guess I really have changed.”
I chuckled softly.
“And for the better. You’ve become stronger, more decisive. Now you don’t have to carry that weight anymore, because karma finally came through. Because of him, your life was hanging by a thread. If I hadn’t been here in this prison, things could’ve ended badly. That bastard thought he’d get away with it forever, but now… he’ll answer for every atrocity he committed.”
I saw Elijah shiver slightly and pulled him closer, wrapping my arms tightly around him,
“Yeah… I could’ve died. And I almost did because of that guard. If it weren’t for you… I wouldn’t be here
anymore.”
I took his hand and brought it to my lips, placing a soft kiss on his skin.
“I’ll always protect you. I know you can handle yourself, but as your husband, it’s my duty to take care of you.”
He smiled, that dazzling glint in his eyes that always disarms me.
“Stop saying those things… You’re making me blush.”
I laughed lightly.
“I’ll never stop telling you I love you. I’ll never stop saying how amazing you are. And anything else you need to hear, I’ll always be here to remind you–no hesitation.”
His gaze deepened. Noticing the desire in his eyes, I leaned in and kissed him.

I love that gesture,
It’s simple but full of meaning.
I could spend a lifetime like this–feeling his lips, his skin, drowning in this love that only grows,
He held my face tightly, deepened the kiss, then trailed soft kisses across my cheeks.
“I love kissing you… I could spend the whole day doing just that.”
“You’re not the only one with that thought, my angel.”
He let out a soft yawn, and I chuckled at the sweetness.
“Go to the cell. I’ll grab the food. We’ll eat there and get some rest–cuddled up. I don’t want to share you with
anyone,”
“I second that,” he replied with a goofy smile, giving me one last kiss before walking off. I’ll be waiting for you,
love.”
I stood there, watching until he disappeared down the hall.
As soon as he was out of sight, my expression shifted completely.
All sweetness vanished, replaced by a cold, dark stillness.
I walked calmly to the cafeteria.
Most were already eating.
I didn’t see Tony–he was probably in the cell with Fox.
I approached the kitchen.
The inmate handling food looked at me, and with a simple gesture, I held up two fingers.
He understood immediately–I wanted two trays.
While he prepared them, I walked to the center of the cafeteria.
The murmurs ceased.
“I have an announcement,” I said, my voice echoing firmly through the hall. “Soon, a new inmate will walk through those doors. And I want every single one of you to make his life a living hell. Do whatever you want. Beatings, humiliation, rape… he’s all yours.”
The silence shattered into sadistic smiles and eager expressions.
I returned to the kitchen, grabbed the two trays, and walked out with a satisfied smile.

David is going to pay.
Until his very last breath.
