章節 52: Chapter 52: Making Enemies

No one had a chance to react because I was already in motion. My power hit the Empress's hard, dividing her shields in half, wrapping around Sunny with a fist of rainbow light. She stared at me in horror, shaking her head, but it was too late.

"She's under my protection," I snarled.

Piotr flashed his fangs at me, actually nervy enough to take a step toward me, the pathetic, whining creepsalot. "Release her," he said. "This is none of your concern."

"Like hell," I shot back. I spun on the Empress who glared at me with renewed anger. Maybe she would have released Sunny after all, but no way was I taking that chance. "You want a war?" I pushed hard against her. "You want to see just what I can bring to a fight? I'll give you a battle you'll never win."

"You've made enemies here tonight, Sydlynn Hayle," the Empress said, cold rage clear in her voice and her power, all touch of friendliness long gone.
