Chapter 117: Tear Your Head Off
[Margaret’s Perspective]
Her lower body was as steady as a rock, stopping my forward momentum.
At the same time, the toughness and explosive power of her muscles became apparent. I felt my head tilting back inch by inch. When she broke free of me, I would be as passive as before.
I mustn’t be like this!
With a thought, I relaxed my grip on Angel and used her strength to push with my other arm. We rolled off the side and onto the ground.
My head hurt from the hard concrete surface, but I didn’t think Angel felt good either.
I didn’t care if I was injured anymore. Even if I couldn’t win this battle, as long as I could keep Angel from being unharmed and maintaining that disgusting arrogant face, what I did was worth it.
We rolled a few times. I felt pain in my back. I wondered if the wound had been torn.
Angel looked like I’d finally gotten under her skin. She dropped the sarcastic smile she’d been wearing and stared at me blankly, as if I were dead.
I suddenly felt fear. She exuded murderous intent.
I had felt it from the person who attacked me in the forest. I began to regret agreeing to fight her. I had clearly promised Donald in the morning that I would protect myself. Why should I fight unnecessarily for vindication?
I exhaled, wanting to tell her I’d conceded.
But Angel reached out and pulled my hair. I felt a sharp pain in my scalp that made me speechless.
Angel had already taken the initiative in this battle. She pulled me up from the ground by my hair. I half crouched and tried to break free from her grip, but her grip was too tight. I could only passively follow her pace.
I tried to grab her hand to control my body, but before I could exert myself, Angel wedged me back onto the blanket.
I felt dizzy. Angel had hit me on the back of my head.
Something sticky flowed from my head. In my blurry vision, I saw Angel’s figure approaching. I closed my eyes and hugged the vital parts of my head at the last moment, waiting for the beating and pain that would come.
“Margaret!”
“Margaret!!!”
I heard two different cries of alarm, the sharp one coming from my sister, Elizabeth.
And that other deep gorgeous voice.
I suddenly opened my eyes.
Who else could this angry figure be but Donald!
Donald looked even more terrifying than when he locked me in the ward. His face was ashen as he strode up to me and stood between me and Angel. His broad shoulders looked as reliable as a small mountain.
“Donald? I’m just helping her train. And I came at Luna Elizabeth’s invitation.” Angel’s defensive voice sounded in his ear.
“I…” Elizabeth finally said. She looked at the few of us helplessly.
I was about to get up from the ground to speak when Donald ignored the others and bent down to pick me up.
The muscles in his arms were firm and elastic and unexpectedly steady. I felt as if I was being lifted on a good stretcher. He held me to his chest and looked down at me. There was determination in his gray-green eyes.
“I’m sorry…” I whispered.
Donald shook his head at me and reached out to touch my forehead. I thought there must be blood on it.
I felt sorry and frustrated that I was hurt again. Donald must be angry with me again.
Donald turned his gaze to Angel and said coldly, “I thought I had warned you. I’ll tell you again, Angel, get out of here and go back to your own place. If you dare do such a thing again, I’ll tear your head off with my own hands.”
I saw Angel’s body start to tremble.
I buried myself deeper in Donald’s arms. This was my man. He had always belonged to me.
“I told you I was invited. We were much crueler when we trained as commandos. You—”
“Shut the f*ck up, Angel. Get out!” Donald growled.
Angel pressed her lips together and said nothing more, but her eyes were still defiant.
I saw it. I knew Donald saw it too.
Donald didn’t speak again until Angel walked past us.
Donald said sinisterly, “Besides, I don’t want to hear from Margaret that she runs into you again. If you appear in front of her through any means, I will banish you completely in the name of Lycan King.”
I saw Angel pause for a moment, then leave without looking back.
