Bonnie knew how much Shane was tormented by looking at his eyes. Smiling, she asked, "Is that all it takes to torture you? Can you handle what I''m about to tell you? What if it makes you worse than you are now?" As far as Shane was concerned, she resembled the devil. He recalled the moment he stood on the cliff and the excruciating pain he felt when she kicked him.


    ''I remember just how unbearable the pain was. It was worse than death. Now, she has the ssmile on her face. Is she nning on beatingup again?'' At the thought of it, he felt a pain in his belly again. He didn''t realize it, but his body hunched a little.

"You''re not afraid of me?" Bonnie cracked her knuckles and approached him with a smile.

''I was just trying to preserve my honor as a man when I told her I''m not afraid of her. I didn''t know my words would trigger her to want to beatup for real. I should''ve just kept my big mouth shut.'' He was in the middle of his thoughts when Bonnie stood before him.

    ''Her punches are just too horrifying. I''ve learned it the hard way. It felt as if she was smashing up my organs. Once was more than enough.'' However, he waited a long time, yet the foreboding pain didn''tnd on him. Then, he opened his eyes a little. Raising his head, he saw her smiling face.


    "Didn''t you just say that you aren''t afraid of me? So, why is your body shaking this much? Is it because it''s too ask in the basement? Should I men to bring you more nkets?" He could detect the unbridled sarcasm in her tone. Then, he thought back to his exaggerated reaction and paled immediately. A hint of rage shed in his eyes as well. ring at her, he barked, "Are you toying withon purpose?!" She shrugged and stared at him half-heartedly.
