The Love From Vengeance

56: STAND FOR ME

ARIEL’S POV

1/5

Luke slowly approached us, his eyes locked onto Mariam, a fierce and intense glare eminating from the both of them. But the anger and fury within him were almost palpable, making it clear that he was not one to be trifled with.

The intensity of his gaze was like nothing Mariam had ever seen before, sending a chill down her spine. If looks could kill, this woman would probably be dead by now.

It was as if he was a completely different person, consumed by a burning rage that seemed to consume him. With each step he took, the tension in the air grew thicker, creating a sense of unease

for Mariam.

His eyes were like a storm, and she couldn’t help but feel like she was standing in the eye of it. Well, that’s what I’m thinking about her. I don’t know if other thoughts are still revolving around in her

head.

“I asked a question, didn’t I? What the hell are you doing?” Luke’s tone clearly showed how his anger got harder and harder.

Mariam was speechless, yet she returned the angry stare. It was a war zone at the moment, more like a staring competition.

When Luke got close to me, his piercing gaze met mine, causing a rush of emotions to flood through me. But then he turned to Mariam and gave her the intense glare once again. Yup, that’s his true nature; an angry baboon.

But at this moment, my anger towards him vanished, I guess. Well, it was because it looked like he was against Mariam, and so was I. So, it’s the two of us against the grumpy witch. Oh, wait, Riley was here. It was three of us, actually.
