Goodbye, Saintess. Novel

Chapter 517 Logan Ironclaw , the leader of the Black Cougars , let out a coarse laugh . " Let me give you a chance , " he said . " Put down your weapon and stop resisting . I'll spare your life . You can be my little lover . How about it ? " " Disgusting . " Even pale and exhausted , Ashera spat the word with sharp fury. " Keep dreaming . I'd rather die here than become your plaything , you filthy man ! " " No need to be so stubborn . " Logan didn't lose his temper . His grin only widened . " Do you really think a woman like you can win against me ? " " Nonsense !

" Ashera's eyes turned razor - sharp as she glared at the two men standing beside him . " If it weren't for those traitors , do you think you could've beaten me ? Ungrateful dogs ! I treated you well . Why betray the Dragoons ? " The two underbosses , Nicholas Theon and Ron Jover , snorted without shame . " Ms. Cage , you did treat us decently , " Nicholas said with a shrug . " But money and power ? We already had those . What we lacked was women . " " As men , if we can't have women on the side , who'd follow you wholeheartedly ? " Ron added . " Shameless ! " Ashera's voice shook with fury .

" You both have wives and children at home . Why chase mistresses ? I only forbade cheating and secret lovers , " she snapped . " I never said you couldn't have a normal private life ! " " That's exactly the problem ! " Both men shouted at once . " We're underbosses . You think we can't even keep a mistress ? " " Mr. Ironclaw promised us ten new women every month - rotated regularly . Now that's what an underboss . deserves ! " Logan burst out laughing , pride dripping from his tone . " Ms. Cage , it seems you truly don't understand men . " " You filthy scum , " Ashera hissed .

" Even if I die here , I'll drag the three of you down with me ! " " Why not focus on surviving first ? " Nicholas sneered . " Your rotten luck is unbelievable . I sent a viper to bite you , yet you lived . And then you walked right into our trap . You didn't even see it coming . Pathetic . " Ron laughed too . " Ms. Cage is too sentimental . Even if she saw through it , she'd still walk straight in because the bait was her loyal man , Jackie . " " Open your eyes . No one's left by your side . Those so - called loyal men ? None came back to save you .

' Logan clapped slowly , smiling with mock admiration . " My underbosses are right . A wise person adapts . Even if you refuse to serve me , once you collapse , I'll just tie you up . I'll still get what I want . " He leaned closer , his grin vile . " Unless you did this on purpose , knowing I enjoy that kind of game ? " " You disgust me . Keep dreaming ! " Ashera's body trembled . Her strength was gone . The dagger in her hand , Chapter 517 +25 Bonus once sharp , was now chipped and dulled .

She hadn't slain the men earlier with steel but with sheer force , shattering their bones through impact alone . Now , she'd reached her limit . She was cornered . And from the hunger in Logan's eyes , she knew he meant every word . ' Am I really going to die here ? ' she thought , her gaze dropping to the broken dagger in her hand . ' Should I end it myself ?
