Casper's kick was brutal, clearly meant to be deadly.
"Casper, you..."
"Zach, like you said, killing someone isn't as satisfying as breaking their spirit." He deftly opened the vial and pulled out a slender syringe. "This drug is crafted just for your DNA. I bet it's a perfect match for you."
He pierced the vial with the needle.
In no time, the clear liquid filled the syringe.
Zach's eyes widened in terror.
He shook his head frantically, "Casper, you can't..."
"Can't what?" Casper calmly pushed the plunger, expelling the air. "Can't use it on you?"
"I mean, you can't just test this stuff on people. It might not work. Please, don't do this."
Zach was clearly panicking.
His pupils dilated, then contracted, reflecting his fear of the unknown.
He had never felt fear like this before.
The idea of being paralyzed and losing his mind was worse than death for him.
He knew that truth well; how could Casper not?
Torturing someone is about the twisted pleasure it brings.
Zach deserved this treatment.
With the syringe in hand, Casper moved toward Zach. For years, Zach had been ambitious, always going against him.
He'd once tried to steal his wife, and now he was targeting his child.
Casper wouldn't give Zach another chance.
"Mr. Casper, I've brought her here."
"It's not like that, Casper. Please, listen to me. I got caught up in the moment; I didn't know what I was doing. Please, forgive me this one time. Just once. I promise I'll change, I really will."
Fiona knelt on the floor, clutching Casper's legs, pleading for mercy.
She cried pitifully, a far cry from the ruthless Fiona who had wanted to ruin someone.
Casper's slender fingers lifted her chin gently, holding it lightly. "Scared now?"
"Do you really think you still have a chance?" His grip tightened, nearly crushing her chin. "Who gave you the nerve to take my son? There's only one outcome for that... death."
"I know I was wrong, Casper. For Rory's sake, can you forgive me?" Fiona cried desperately.
