exude such a menacing presence.

Cedric’s words were cut off abruptly as Natalie suddenly moved. She forcefully freed herself from his grip and slammed him against the wall.

The sound of the impact demonstrated the swiftness of her action.

Before Cedric could react, Natalie turned around, her eyes flashing with coldness.

The hatred in her eyes burned like a raging fire, as if it could incinerate anyone.
