NovelEnglishMadelyn cautioned Zach. "Don't do anything stupid. I've already called Ethan, and he'll be here soon." Zach countered, "Donna Jolie's return has me thinking. Do you think Ethan still cares about you?" Madelyn wasn't about to let him off the hook. "And what about you? Do you still have feelings for Jadie, brother?" She whispered the last word, her hand gently resting against his chest to stop him from coming any closer. Their close proximity allowed her to catch a faint whiff of tobacco on him. She wondered, 'l thought he didn't like smoking?" Her words left Zach speechless.

Now that I've moved on and started dating someone else, you keep coming around, Zach..." She suppressed the turmoil in her heart and locked eyes with him. "Have you fallen for me?" Zach's gaze remained enigmatic. He leaned in closer, planting warm kisses along her neck. His voice grew husky as he responded, "Think whatever you want.” "But even if Ethan leaves me because Donna Jolie is back, you and | can never be together. If you're only treating me as a plaything, I'll be devastated. Everything I've done was to distance myself from you..." Madelyn's words hung heavy in the air, each one laden with emotion.
Zach's actions came to an abrupt stop. He held her chin, bringing their faces close, and he whispered, "Do you need me to spell it out for you, Madelyn? You can't escape me." In one swift motion, Zach pushed Madelyn onto the bed, leaving her dizzy. He pressed down on top of her, his grip firm as he kissed her forcefully. In mere moments, Madelyn found herself stripped of her clothes.
Madelyn pleaded, her voice trembling, "Stop... Mmm! Let me go." Summoning all her strength, she kicked him away. Seizing the opportunity, she rolled over, clutching the blanket tightly around her body. Several sets of lingerie scattered on the bed fell to the floor.
Tears welled up in Madelyn's eyes as she grappled with her own emotions, thinking, 'I've fought so hard to change, so why... why can't | break free from him?" In the evening at Portsmouth Fishing Village, the sea breeze blew strongly. The season hadn't quite moved past, and the chilly wind rustled through her fair skin. She, so slender, shivered from the cold.

Madelyn buried her face in the blanket, her mind going blank as she trembled.
Zach noticed her hand tightly clutching the blanket, revealing a prominent scar on her wrist. He remembered how she had gotten that scar, never imagining it would leave such a shocking and ugly mark on her.
"...But | can't cheat on Ethan!" Madelyn sobbed, lifting her head, tears continuously falling, her hair clung to her wet face. "I'm begging you, please, let me go! | know you have a grudge against the Jent family. But that day at the beach, | already died once.
Why won't you just let me be? | didn't do anything wrong. Why do | have to bear all this? Zach... | really can't afford to love you anymore. Please, let me go! I'm begging you!" Being with him was too painful. She had even risked her own life for it.
