Chapter 14 - CH 14 Drown you in the pool of your own blood

Seeing the look in Arianna's eyes, Yohan laughed, so hard that it sent chills running down her spine. God, what would she do? The only thing she could think of was embracing the pain. They'll surely get tired and let her be. Yohan was still laughing, then he stopped and turned to her.

"You see Anna, you're so pretty and I didn't want to hurt your beautiful face...." he traced his finger down her face and she shifted it in disgust. " But what did you do? You provoked me and you're still doing it now."

"Let me go you moron!" Arianna said calmly yet menacingly.

"Or what? You'll beat me? Ha! Let's see how you do that" Yohan said.

"I might bite you again" Arianna said and the next moment she was punched again. She cried at the pain she felt.

"I thought you wanted a fight?..."

"Jerk" Arianna breathed, trying to endure the pain.

Yohan scoffed. This girl is really pissing him off. He lifted his hand to slap her, but a frightening menacing voice held him in place.

*....*.....*....*.....*.....*...*...*...*...*

Ryan sat at a far end of the park, taking in fresh air while drinking coffee. This place is really good to think and refresh mind. But later it turned into something else. Something disturbing. He hears things he doesn't want and see things he doesn't want. A groaning sound rang in his ears and then a whimper. But he paid no attention to it because the words 'help me' was never heard. 

In between the groan was laughter. Who does that? Or is someone hurting another? He tried to connect the dots. 

Later, 'let me go you moron' was heard. Now he's pissed. He stood up to search for the sound and that was when he found the source. A lady held like a criminal while beaten to a pulp. She needs help but isn't crying for one. How interesting!

'Or what? You'll beat me? Ha! Let's see how you do that' he heard the man say.

'How about I bite you again?' the lady said.

Oh my! She's brave....then he heard a cry from her. She was punched in her belly. Her cries filling his ears.

Ryan's gaze darkened. Now he's angry, his eyes turned golden. His pupils turned a little cylindrical, more like an oval shape with pointed edges. 

Yohan lifted his hand to slap her again but Ryan's frightening voice held him in place.

"I thought people say it's not okay for men to lay their hands on women?"

Yohan's hand hung in air for a moment before bringing them down slowly and turning towards the voice. Ryan stood there, quite frightening, with golden eyes that were changing back to normal, and hands behind his back.

Yohan scoffed "You know it's really nice for people like you to mind their own business" he said. 

Ryan stared at him for a while "Okay" he said indifferently and made an attempt to leave, not failing to catch the smirk on Yohan's face like he defeated him.

No. No no no...please don't go.

Ryan turned to them again. "If I were you I'll leave her alone" he said indifferently.

"Or what? You'll beat us?" One of them said. Oh God! If only he knew how he hates that question.

"How about I burn you? Or drown you in the pool of your own blood?" Ryan spoke.

Chills ran down their spine, including Arianna.

"I'd like to see you do that" Yohan scoffed. He didn't want to look scared. Ryan's voice alone was enough to scare him, not to talk of his words. But if he backs down now, they'll all think he's a weakling and he doesn't want that.

"Let her go now while I ask nicely" Ryan said as he took steps towards them.

"I don't want to" Yohan said. Now there's no much distance between them. The other guys were scared at Ryan's dark gaze and cold intimidating aura, so they released Arianna harshly and she fell to the ground with a thud. Weak.

"Want to die then?" Ryan asked, grinning. Yohan felt it was a joke so he lifted his clenched fist, ready to give Ryan a blow. But with a flash his fist was held in air and Ryan's hand was clasped around his neck. Strangling him. Ryan's grip was too tight that it was super difficult to breathe. Yohan was already red and suffocating.

"Run now, except you want to end up like him" Ryan said to the others through clenched teeth, his deathly gaze never shifting from Yohan. The guys ran for their lives. They are not ready to fight for Yohan in this case. This man is way too strong and terrifying.

Yohan felt his soul leaving his body. He felt weak in the knees, parts of his body hurts like he was beaten. Even Arianna pitied him. That moment, Ryan left him and he fell with a thud. His body went limp. Ryan crouched to his level, arranging his bangs stylishly. He exhaled.

"If I ever see you hurting someone again....that time I'll rip your heart out" Ryan said slowly and menacingly. "Now get lost"

Yohan managed to stand after breathing heavily, already walking away with whimpers.

"Hold on" Ryan stopped him and he froze in his tracks. What now? He turned around slowly.

"Aren't you forgetting something?" Ryan asked. Now what the hell is he forgetting? His boys left him already.

"What?" He asked, almost in a whisper.

"Apologize to the lady" Ryan said.

Apologize to who?! Arianna? Even she was stunned.

"What?" Yohan exclaimed. Of course he won't do it.

Ryan tilted his head to the side "You won't do it? How about I make you?"

Arianna who was still on the ground got up immediately, seeing the glare in Yohan's eyes.

"No, he doesn't need to..."

"Apologize!" Ryan roared, cutting her off.

Yohan glared at Arianna for some seconds "I'm sorry" he said.

"Is that okay with you, young lady?" Ryan asked without looking at her.

"Y-Yes, yes" Arianna replied.

"Now that's better." Ryan grinned. "Run along now, before I loose it"

Yohan still had that look in his eyes for Arianna before he turned around, feeling intimidated, he walked away.
