The situation escalated extremely quickly. Even though Malice didn't seek such a confrontation, he still ended up in a far worse position than he expected. However, that didn't make him feel any more regretful than he already was.
'I'm not someone you can walk all over.' He clenched his teeth as he increased his grip on Ela's arm, hearing the sound of his bones making weird noises. He was certain that Ela was struggling at that moment.
But, that didn't mean the situation was in his favor yet. After all, he was surrounded by Ela's friends who seemed to still be confused about what was happening.
'How can I get out of this situation? Dammit, so annoying!' As he was trying to figure out what to do, he didn't notice that Ela was already on the verge of breaking.
