My body was trembling as I gasped for air , my vision was blurry and my head pounded .

Nathan had been trying to pull me from Xander before someone whose face I couldnt see tackled him to the ground .

In my desperation in between Xander pulling me and Nathan struggling .

I had felt that familiar anger .

Nanny hovered at the foot of the bed her eyes were swollen and she was trying to hold back her tears .
