Meanwhile…
"Kyah!!" A woman's scream pierced through the vicinity, but it quickly faded into the other noises that filled the entire city.
The woman, hiding inside one of the boutiques, slumped to the floor. Her eyes shook as she crawled backward on her buttocks and feet, unable to look away from the man standing before her.
Fear was etched clearly on her face, her complexion pale. Her lips quivered, tears forming in the corners of her eyes as if she already knew what would happen to her.
"No…" she begged, her back hitting the counter wall. "Please, spare me… I didn't—I'm not…"
The man smiled maliciously as he chuckled, licking his lips while looking down at the young woman. Fighting raged outside, and fires had spread everywhere. Even with that damn misplaced music now gone, the gunshots echoed every other second.
No one would care what happened inside this small store.
Who would know?
