There were more men than Aurora thought. They were attacking without any break. Antonia's bullets were finished. She stopped fighting to took out another gun when a man was about to attack her with a knife from the back.
"Antonia!" Aurora shouted and came in front of her. She hold the knife with her hand. She hissed in pain as it was a very sharp knife. Antonia became shocked. She controlled herself and killed that fucker then and there.
" Queen go to the car fastly. I'll manage them."
"No. I can't leave you alone. Let's fight."
" But queen you are bleeding."
"Don't argue Antonia. Finish this first. Obey your queen."
Antonia didn't say further. They again started fighting. Soon all the men were finished. Both of them went towards the car.
"Why the fuck did you do that? I'm your fucking right hand. It's my job to protect you. Why did you risk yourself!" Antonia shouted feeling helpless.
"You won't be able to shout at me if I didn't do that. Its just my hand. But if he was able to attack you, you would be in more serious condition. Group needs you now. You have to be safe."
" UNDOCILE needs you more than me. When will you understand! When will you feel my pain Aurora! Seeing you getting hurt is worse than getting stabbed."
"Yeah yeah. It's easy to say that. Let's go home now."
" You are intolerable and annoying." saying that Antonia started driving. Aurora just laughed but didn't say anything.
Aurora and Antonia reached the mansion. Harry, Lucas and Charlie were gossiping in the living room. When the two girls entered Charlie looked at Aurora and found her hand was bleeding. He ran towards her. " What the fuck happened? Why are you bleeding this much?"
" Nothing serious. Don't worry." Aurora said.
"Nothing serious? Are you fucking out of your mind? Antonia please give me the first aid box."
"Yeah sure." Antonia went to take the first aid box. Charlie took Auroras hand and guided her to the couch. Lucas and Harry also seemed to be concerned. "Were you attacked by any enemy?" Lucas asked.
"Yeah. Kind of." Aurora said.
Antonia gave the first aid box to Charlie and he started to clean the wound. Aurora hissed in pain. Charlie closed his eyes. "Sorry. I'll be gentle now."
Harry and Lucas were impressed with this much change of Charlie. "Are you hurt somewhere?" Lucas asked Antonia.
"No I'm fine. She saved me and got that cut." Antonia said sadly looking at Auroras hand. Lucas understood that she was again feeling guilty.
"Let's go to the yard okay? You need fresh air." Lucas said.
"But what about her?" Antonia said hesitantly.
"I'm okay. You should go." Aurora said and nodded to Lucas. She also want Antonia to be out of that guiltiness.
"Charlie is with her. No worries. Let's go."
"Okay." Antonia came out of the mansion and Lucas followed her. They sat on a bench after walking for sometime.
"I have again failed today." Antonia said sadly.
"She has her own reason to save you Antonia. I hope you know that." Lucas said looking at Antonia with comfort.
Antonia lowered her head and said, "But I'm suppose to save her. I would happily take bullet or get stabbed for her. Why does she always need to risk herself for us."
"You know her better than me. So you already know the answer. You love her but she also loves you right? She can't see you in pain too. Don't burden yourself thinking you owe her your life. I know she doesn't like either. You are her sister. Just support her. It is enough for her."
Antonia sighed but didn't say anything.
" Come on. Let's go inside now. You should take rest and then have dinner."
"Thanks Lucas. You are a great person. Thanks for consoling me."
Lucas smiled standing up. He crouched down a little in front of Antonia and patted her hair. Antonia kept looking at him. "I'll be by your side every time you need me Antonia. Let's go now." Antonia nodded and they both came inside the mansion.
When they came inside, Sofia and Leo were also coming downstairs. Seeing Aurora was getting bandaged, Sofia ran to her. "What happened? You went on a date right? How did you end up getting hurt?"
Charlie looked at Sofia hearing that. Aurora looked at Charlie and then looked at Sofia. Antonia closed her eyes in annoyance. When will this girl grow up she thought.
"You went on a date?" Charlie asked Aurora.
Aurora was quite. Should she tell him? Why was she feeling scared anyway? It's not like he is her husband or boyfriend.
"Yeah." she replied not looking at him. She was sure Charlie will leave her hand, stand up and left the room. She was prepared for it. But that didn't happen. Charlie kept bandaging her hand. After he was done he put her hand on her lap and stood up.
" Take a medicine after eating your dinner or else it'll hurt." Charlie said.
"She is accustomed to such main. Moreover she doesn't like to take medicines. She won't take even if you force her." Sofia blabbered. Aurora and Antonia both sighed this time. This girl never learns when it's time to keep quite they thought.
"I'm no one to force her. I have just suggested. She can do whatever she likes." saying that Charlie went to his room. Other boys also followed him.
