Susanna's face twisted in pain, tears brimming in her eyes as she looked at Hull. "Don't... don't move! I need to get a doctor."

Jeez, he was way too rough.

Right now, she wouldn't let him touch her foot again for anything-it hurt like hell.

Hull just shrugged. "No need for a doctor. It's already better."

Susanna stared. "Huh?!"

Wait, what? Already better?

She wiggled her ankle, cautiously. And... seriously-it didn't hurt anymore.

"Well, it doesn't hurt now."

There was still a bit of discomfort, but the sharp pain from before was gone.

Hull grunted, then added, “How about this: beg me, and I'll let you skip training from now on, yeah?"

Even though Yvonne had taken Susanna with her for two weeks, Hull thought Susanna was still hopeless when it came to this stuff. She just wasn't cut out for it.

Honestly, she'd grown up in a pampered, sheltered world-why force her to jump into the muddy mess that was Black Gate and totally change who she was?

Susanna gave him a wide-eyed, innocent look. "Um... Black Gate would love nothing more than to chew me and my mom up and spit us out right now."

Hadn't that already almost happened back at Hull's place?

Thank God they'd been at Hull's house-if they'd been anywhere else, those creepy twins would've torn her apart.
