Coolest Girl in Town

“Haha! You’ve got quite the temper, huh? I like it.” The man took off his jacket and forcibly pounced on Elise. Elise was instantly filled with disgust, as if her stomach was churning. She kept struggling, but the other men came forward and pinned her down, so she couldn’t summon up her strength at all… Elise looked at the shabby roof above her head with her heart full of despair.

It didn’t take long before her tears formed a wet patch on his chest. “There, now. Nothing’s gonna happen since I’m here for you.” Elise slowly slipped out of Alexander’s arms while looking at him through a mist of tears. “Do you know I really was in despair at that moment? I was

time to go home.” Elise nodded. Alexander helped her up and looked her up and down. After making certain that there was nothing wrong with her, he went out carrying her in his arms. Neither of them spoke on their way back since Elise was still suffering from shock. She had no idea who would make such a cruel attempt on her life.
