Overpowered Reincarnation Perks! - 0
My breath was caught in my throat. It felt like my pounding heart was screaming. As I was running down the dirt path, my ankle twisted, and my body fell forward.
Just before hitting the ground, a strong arm snatched me. My body was lifted up swiftly, inverting my field of vision.
“Did you think I’d let you go if you ran away to your death?”
Purple eyes gleamed ominously. The man who had always been considerate towards me was breathing roughly, unlike his usual self. Seeing him so different from what I remembered, I shrank my neck and shook my head.
No. I never tried to run away. Of course, I just fled, but that wasn’t really to disappear.
While choosing my words carefully in my mouth, wondering what excuse would calm his anger, a large hand approached from the side and grabbed my left hand.
“I said I’d die with you. So why.”
I don’t have any thoughts of dying with you! Do you think I’m a suicidal person like you?
I wanted to shout that, but seeing his arm thicker than my thigh made my heart shrink. I had never been afraid of him before, so I hadn’t realized it. How threatening a man so huge that his shadow could cover my entire body could be.
As if he sensed my fear, the grip holding me loosened. I slapped his hand away forcefully, and he obediently let go of my hand.
However, before I could escape from his embrace, this time my ankle was grabbed.
After dragging my body, which was caught by the ankle, and laying it straight, elegant, long fingers crept up and lightly grasped my neck.
He didn’t apply pressure or strangle me, but I couldn’t breathe. It’s like being caught by a huge snake.
As I looked up, raising my head as if seeking salvation, I saw the face of a man looking down at me with a sorrowful expression. Clearly, I was the one feeling threatened, but it was him whose eyes were full of tears.
“Have you ever thought about how I would feel losing you right before my eyes?”
Yes. I’ve thought about it. I’ve thought about it a lot. I’m sorry.
I’ll repent and beg, so can’t you just let me go? I’m scared now.
Before I could utter my pleading words, long fingers grasped my neck and pressed down firmly. My breath was choked off, and my chest heaved greatly.
Looking down at me indifferently, he opened his mouth.
“I am yours, so if you want to leave, take my life with you.”
How many times do I have to tell you that I didn’t disappear from your sight because I wanted to!
Trapped between four men who seemed ready to kill me and take their own lives, I writhed in resentment.
I’m a victim too. It’s all because of this damn system window.
Someone, please stop these madmen!
