Chapter 110

Zenovia

Panting and wheezing for breath, I got back to the bench where Caroline whooped and jumped up and down.

“Damn you girl!!” She screamed loudly, making a few spectators look at

I smiled at her despite the slight pain.

Matteo came running to me and asked worriedly, “ARe you okay?”

I nodded while Caroline and a few others helped me walk back to the

seat.

“Yeah, I am”

Matteo took the first aid kit and placed it on the seat beside me.

“Sorry, I could not do much. They were not playing against the rules.” The earlier anger I had felt for him was now replaced by relief. It was good that he never intervened.

I had to learn to fight for myself and not always depend on others. I had been bullied and belittled all my life..

So slow and baby steps to grow strong and gain confidence within myself and my abilities was the way to go forward.

“Don’t beat yourself about it” I answered as he pulled out the cotton and disinfectant to clean my wounds.

“Roll her sleeves up, please” He asked Caroline who promptly did that. But when she pulled up the sleeves, there was nothing on my skin.

“Oh, great, your wounds have already healed.”

Furrowing my eyebrows, I looked at my arms and sure enough, there was no sign of any cuts or wounds.

The only indication that I had ever been injured was the small flakes of dried blood stuck to the inside of my sleeve.

“Ooh, your wolf already healed you” Caroline exclaimed and Matteo smiled at me. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“That means you don’t need this anymore” He said, throwing the cotton

away.

“Do you want to rest a bit more?” He asked, “I can definitely do that”

My gaze flicked to the other team members. They were all looking worn out already. Their hair ware sticking to the ends, their clothes crumpled and their expressions gloomy.

I saw the bunch of girls who had attacked me, snatch the juice bottles from the boy who was distributing it to everybody.

The other team members didn’t even object as the girls took all the bottles for themselves and chugged down while snatching other refreshments that were brought over as well.

I only shook my head as I walked in the arena.

Matteo looked at the team B and asked, “Since almost all of you fell down and your backs touched the ground, technically there is nobody to challenge her from team B. But if you want, I can give you guys one last chance before declaring her as athe winner.”

Matteo’s loud voice rang through the entire arena.

Caroline was prompt to add, “She deserves the title of a winner. She never cheated or tried to sneakily take others out.”

I looked at Caroline. She was timid and short but was brave to voice her opinion in front of the mean girls quite fearlessly.

Pushing her black hair behind her ear, she jutted her chin and stared at the leader of the mean girls who scowled at her.

She raised her hand and waved at Matt to attract his attention.

“I would like to challenge her. We were going to have a last one on one battle so it is only fair that we follow it through.”

Matt looked at her while folding his hands on his chest.

“That was if we played fair”

She opened her mouth to retort but did not say a thing. She knew beta Matteo was way off her limit to talk back to him.

So she improvised and looked down at the ground.

“I mean if the audience wants to see it through the end, I am willing to fight one last time. It will be shameful to not even try.”

She said and Matteo looked at me.

I only shrugged, “That is okay with me. We can have that one last match”

The crowd too started cheering for us and Matt asked us to step in the

ring after asking loudly if anybody had an objection.

Nobody said a word so Matt motioned for both of us ot step into the ring.

I looked back at my team that cheered for me while Matteo made me shake hands with my opponent.

Wasting no time, I grabbed her hand that she had begun to pull away and tried to throw her over but she was quick.

She bent down and thrust her leg out, making me stumble. I stopped\ myself from falling and pulled myself back again as she whirled us both around.

I skittered a few steps but luckily due to the sand, I could stop myself from going any farther.

Her leg came flying at me from the side, my ears prickled when the light breeze slapped my left ear.

I did not have time to hit her so I just ducked and her leg went straight horizontally that I grabbed and tried to pull her down.

But she was smart and she pushed herself upon me. The impact almost made me touch the ground and I saw the referee kneel down on the ground to get a better look.

But I had not come this far to be defeated by a cheater. So, griting my teeth, I pulled up again and braced myself for the attack.

“My name is Bella” She muttered, while thumping her fists like an angry gorilla. She was quite huge and bulky compared to me so her throws and punches hurt.

It was great that I had Thunder with me who could help me recover from the pain and focus on counterattacks.

“Not so nice to meet you, Bella” I offered that made her scoff.

“You have no idea who you are taking a fight with, do you?” She spoke and ran towards me and I only looked at her face again, wondering where had I seen her.

“You look familiar but then all bitches do” Thunder supplied and I was more than happy to say it out loud.

Thunder did not like mean bullies but I was not quick with insults like her. My words angered Bella even more as she blindly hurled a punch at

me

But this time I was ready. I ducked and grabbed her ponytail, pulled her close and put my hand across her neck, trapping her in my hold.

“Give up!” I yelled but Bella only laughed.

“Against you, no way!!”

She said and dug her elbow in my stomach.

I doubled back and skittered back a few steps but did not fall down. “What have I even done to you? I dont even know who you are!”

I said as she brought her leg close to my knee and drove it in my belly, exactly where her elbow had landed.

“Argh”

I groaned as a fresh wave of pain hit me.

“Yeah, that is what you deserve. I am going to make your life hell”

She said and ran towards me. I tried to get up on my feet and step away just in time as she came rushing towards me.

“Not if I do that first” I said and kicked the back of her knee as hard as I could while her back was turned to me.

I knew that area pained the most when hit so I used that to my advantage. Of course, except kicking the balls that she definitely did not have.

She went down on her knees as I heard her cry out in pain. Not wanting to waste time, I meant to shove her down on the ground but she pushed her leg to the side and made me lose my footing.

My head almost smacked on her shoulder as she grabbed my face and her nails dug into my skin, making me wince in pain.

“She was right. You are a pain in the ass” Bella muttered and I wondered who this ‘she’ was as I tried to fight the fresh wave of pain that invaded my senses.

I felt warm blood trickle down my neck but I knew Thunder woul take care of it.

So I got up but Bella was faster. She used my trick against me, gathered a handful of sand and blew it in my face.

I closed my eyes just in time to block the sand from getting in my eyes but missed on seeing her punch that hit me in the stomach again.

This time, I did puke blood.

“She is injuring her lethally” I heard somebody’s voice as I lost my balance, while gripping my stomach as hard as I could.

I saw the warm blood trickling down my face and this time Matteo intervened.

He blew the whistle and shouted loudly.

“That is against the rules.”

Bella grunted, “I did not injure her so bad that she would die!!”

But Matteo shook his head, “You will get a penalty. She gets a free hit and if she throws you down, you are defeated.”

Her friends from the other side of the arena booed loudly but one look from him and they went silent pretty quickly.

Bella looked at me threateningly and muttered, “You will pay for this” Somehow the way she said that made me look at her in surprise. I finally remmeered why she looked so familiar.

Meanwhile, MAtteo just asked her to stand in the center of the arena and for me to stand a few feet away from her.

I could kick, punch or do whatever I wanted to attack her and she only had to stay still and not fall down. She could not defend herself or attack

That made me smile.

Matteo blew the whistle and signalled to me. “Anytime you are ready” The crowd above expected me to run at her and bulldoze my way, using my strength to throw her off guard as she platned her foot firmly into the sand.

But I had other plans.

So I simply smiled and walked towards her, slowly, deliberately.

She was confused and she only stared at me as I slowly reached her and stood in front of her.

“You are Amy’s sister, aren’t you. She too loves bullying others so no wonder you took that from her.”

My words took her by shock as I circled her and stood in front of her once again.

“But you know what? I am not the same girl your sister bullied at the ball with her gang of friends. Pass on that message to her, will you?”

I asked, making her only blurt out ‘huh?”

I smiled sweetly at her, raised my hand and drove a punch straight into her face.

She had no time to react as she yelped and fell to the ground, unconscious.
