Chapter 58

  Lana’s hands went to the hand that covered her mouth as she tried to forcefully pry it away. She started to squirm, hoping that her frantic movement will give her a chance to escape from the person behind her. She then felt their other hand wrap around her waist to keep her still.

  “Oi, calm down,” the voice called out from behind her but Lana was anything but calm. In her panic, she moved her head backwards, and from this motion the hand covering her mouth loosened and she took the opportunity to open her mouth wide and chomp down against the assailant’s palm. She bit hard against the rough flesh but unfortunately for her, the assailant only let out a soft mutter in response to her attack.

  “Are you done throwing your tantrum?” the voice asked. Lana stiffened, now that her panic was slowly fading away to be replaced with rationality, she immediately recognized the voice. “I’m going to let you go now. Stay quiet, understand?”
