Scar Face probably didn't expect someone to voluntarily offer themselves up like this.

"Really?" he asked.

I nodded, "Absolutely. My sister has been watching you guys for a long time, but she was too shy to approach you."

Sarah shook her head frantically, even calling out my full name, "Emily Hayes, what nonsense are you talking about!"

I feigned confusion, "Sis, weren't you telling me all along how great they were, how they had lots of food?"

Sarah was at a loss for words, "I... I was telling you to..."

I gestured towards Scar Face, "See, my sister is shy. Her face is all red."

Sarah's face was indeed red, but from anger rather than embarrassment.

Scar Face looked at me, then at my sister.

At this moment, my protagonist's luck worked its magic perfectly.

In Scar Face's eyes, I was barely noticeable.

On the contrary, my sister appeared as a slender, long-legged beauty.

His eyes gleamed with excitement as he hoisted my sister over his shoulder with one arm.

Sarah struggled, hitting and scratching from behind, her eyes filled with murderous intent as she looked at me, "Emily Hayes!"

I waved at her, "Brother-in-law, please be gentle with my sister."

As I turned away, I heard my sister's terrifying screams behind me.
