Chapter 44 044 The Strange Stranger Scarlett's POV I used to argue with Ava, when I cared.
I don't care about Sebastian anymore, and I no longer have any desire to "win" over her, especially in a meaningless argument. She has his heart, end of story. I just want to protect my friend right now.
Ava always wins our battles by makingthe bully. She doesn't know how to handle my surrender. Utter speechless, she bites her lips in silence, and her dogs. move away hesitantly.
I grab Lilith's wrist as I turn to Granny: "I'm really sorry..
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Where are you going?" 1 almost run into a guy, and I pull to a sudden halt at his words. He replaced the mean girls group, blocking my way. To think I thought it was fascinating how we shared a rare eye color. Now I just want to hit him in the head when I see his taunting eyes.
I KNEW he was part of the evil plan!!! "You-!" I grip his collar to blow out. He grabs my wrist gently, stoppingfrom doing more damage, but not hurtingas he cutsoff faster: "I thought the fuss was about a Nightingale's knockoff?" "You jerk! You planned this!" I want to pull my hand back but fail at that also, "Let go of me!" "What's your name?" He suddenly asks, his purple eyes narrow dangerously as he leans closer.
"Hey!" Lilith reacts with an angry tone, like a doll suddenly coming to life.
She is shocked, and embarrassed, and nervous. But she reacts to ill-attention directed atlike that's instinct built inside her.
"...sorry," The guy with purple eyes suddenly puts away his dangerous aura and backs away, smiling at Lilith, "Hello again, little kitten." Lilith opens her eyes wide at his insult with her eyebrows raised so high they almost disappear in her hair. No one ever dares to tease her like that, but then again, this guy +25 BONUS 4 The Strange Stranger might have been new to the town. He looks upper-class, but I have never seen him. The Knight is definitely part of the upper class, and if he is, I would have known him.
"Are you with Ava?" Lilith demands, raising a fist. I grab her arm to remind her that she's in a dress right now, and she pulls back her leg she almost launches onto the guy.
That movement seems to amuse him.
"Who's Ava, kitten?" The guy does it again.
"-" Lilith takes an angry gasp, taking a swing at the guy. He turns slightly just to dodge her punch, and instead of backing away, he takes another step forward, pushing his body into Lilith's, grabbing her wrist and twisting it to her back, pressing her waist into himself with that movement.
I can't help but exchange a shocked look with Aurora. We have never seen a guy defeating Lilith so easily, no one but Damon, Lilith took professional training for years, not to mention her street fight experience! "Enough!" I flinch at the august voice - we really pissed off Granny! But when I turned to Granny with guilt burning my ears, I realized Granny wasn't shouting at Lilith and the weird stranger, but at Sebastian and Adrian. Looks like Adrian wants to join the circle to help, and Sebastian won't let him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Granny, I'm really sorry-" I walk over to apologize, and she hmphs me- "You SHOULD apologize, for panic at your enemy's first attack," What? Granny shakes her head and pullsto her side, nodding at Lilith: "Watch, and learn!” She just pinched my ear lightly! Now my ears are burning even more, feeling like a child dispilicined by a strict but loving guardian.
A surprisingly warm feeling I had never felt before.
The guy throws an amazed look at Granny, but soon he darts his eyes back at the prize in his arms.
044 The Strange Stranger +25 BONUS
"Now that you can't move, how about listening for a change?" The gym smirks at Lilith, bending his head a bit to gaze into her eyes, but his voice targaze loud enough for one around us, "I'll forgive you for misunderstanding me, but I will take it as an insult if you keep saying the dress I gave you was a knockoff."
"You-! Wait, what...?" Lilith's furious outburst turns into a low murmur, and that makes the guy holding her laugh.
It wasn't? He wasn't Ava's help? And I just yelled at our savior and he isn't evemmad even mad at us? Okay, I'll allow him to share my eye color then.
