Previously on Avenging Angels

Chris intentionally brings a lady to the event to make Rose jealous and it's working very well. When Rose was unable to handle it anymore, she went out to get some fresh air but stumbled upon two figures.

THIRTY

Father once said that in a state of helplessness, there is no enemy or friend. So when I saw Georgina crying and begging him, I forgot about all those times we fought and didn't hesitate to step forward to prevent her from being harassed.

"Please don't do this, sir" tears coloured her pale face as she begged him for mercy.

Her terrified face and wavering voice brought out a dark memory out of me and I stilled in shock.

I think I was just ten at that time, a few months after we left uncle Ray, I was on my way to the old theater after a long day of work.

Today, I had to stay outside longer because I haven't finished selling my goods and if I didn't finish selling them, we wouldn't have enough to eat this night so I stayed longer than my usual time.

Lily had been waiting for me but I told her to leave because she was already falling asleep and falling asleep on the streets was like committing suicide itself.

I clutched the hamburger and bottle of water I bought after I was done selling, tightly to my chest. The area was dark, quiet and empty as the sun had set ages ago.

I have never came out so late at night like this because I have heard of the rumors about what happened to people who go out at this time of the night.

They never come back.

I speed up a little when I heard silent footsteps behind me, I didn't dare look back because of the fear of what I would see.

I walked faster, trembling with fear then I suddenly stopped when I didn't hear anything again. I turned around slowly and saw the completely empty alley and let out a sigh of relief.

It must have just been a drunkard or something.

As I was about to turn, a large palm came into my view and covered my entire face as the other hand was used to drag me backwards.

I used my nails to claw the hand on my face but it didn't even budge, I also used my teeth to bite deeply into his palm but his strong grip was still pulling me to where I had no idea of.

"Don't worry, darling. It will be quick and sweet" his dark, malicious voice filled my ear and I began to scream frantically although it was all muted by his palm.

Tears fell down my face like an ocean as I realized I might never be able to see my sisters again.

From my view, we were headed towards an abandoned building by the end of the street where no single life is seen or heard.

He pushed me down when we entered the building and my body landed on the bare floor, I squinted my eyes in the darkness to get a glimpse of his face but I couldn't.

He hovered over me as he took off his belt and started taking off his trousers.

My eyes widened as I realized what he was about to do to me.

"Please don't do this to me!" I pleaded as fresh set of tears rushed down my face again.

"I am not going to hurt you, honey" his sickly voice said as he lay on top of me.

"Please!!" I pleaded and pleaded but it fell on heavy ears.

I began to squirm and shout, pleading for help but my voice was heard by none. I closed my eyes, feeling helpless when my father's face came into view.

'I raised you to be strong and independent so you could protect yourself. Show me I didn't waste my time teaching you how to defend yourself' his voice rang through my ears and I suddenly became awake.

I used my small hands to search for something on the floor that I could use to defend myself and when my hand felt a cold metal, I didn't waste time in bringing it to slash his left eye, diagonally.

As the iron touched his face, he screamed as he clutched his bleeding eye and I used that opportunity to push him off me as I stood up.

He grabbed my wrist with his other hand and I used my knee to hit him in the nuts. He fell down as he groaned and I ran away from there as fast as I could without looking back.

I found my way back to the theater, opened the door and locked it behind me as my heart beats refused to go back to normal.

I didn't tell anyone about what happened or what could have happened to me that night.

It left a deep scar in my heart even though I prevented what was about to happen but the thought of what could have happened was terrifying on its own.

"She said stop"

He turned back and looked at me with a smirk, his eyes were blurry and he was barely able to stand properly, meaning he was drunk.

"Mind your own business. Don't worry, when I am done with her, I can spare you a few of my time" he slurred.

"Let her go, Grayson" I warned.

"Or what? Are you going to harm me or something? Let us be, she is enjoying it too" he poked her cheek and she shivered as she looked down.

"That's it" I gritted.

I dragged his hair from behind and he screamed out in pain as he stepped away from Georgina. I whirled him around and gave him a very satisfying punch on his face which made me stagger backwards.

"I am sick and tired of men like you who think you can abuse women the way you like and get away with it!" I held his face on my hand and slapped him repeatedly.

He then grabbed my wrist about to give me a slap when I caught his hand with ease.

"Don't you dare lay your filthy fingers on me or any other girl for that matter" I hissed and used my elbow to jam his stomach.

As I was about to give him another punch, the lights in the hall were turned on and I heard a booming voice saying.

"What the hell is going on here?!!"
