Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)

Chapter 594

I screamed without thinking, and then Yara's voice rang out, "Stop!"

Next thing I knew, she was charging forward, taking on both guys like she was in some action movie.

For the first time, it hit me-Yara knew how to fight. Every move was so smooth, like she'd done this a million times. The two guys holding me let go and turned to face her.

I stood there for a second, totally stunned. Forget being scared, I was just watching her totally kick butt.

We kept going, not sure how long it lasted, but eventually, we took both of them down.
