Chapter 66 Unrequited Rivalry.
Staring at the pale female in front of her, who looked anything but good. Leonica was stuck in between a cross road. First road; Ignore the vampiric witch and go on her merry way, committing her wellbeing and whatever happened to her into the hands of God. Or, second road; be the higher person, the bigger person and offer her some help.
A few seconds of being unnoticed went by before Leonica sighed, her decision already been made.
As much as she’d want to go on the first road, bliss and all to her day, she couldn’t bring herself to leave Angelina the way she was look. Not because she was nice or cared about the witch, fuck no!
The answer was simple. Her unborn child. Just like her, Angelina was or rather, was going to become a mother sooner or later and leaving her this way set the perfect stage for a miscarriage, resulting in an innocent life at stake.
Saint or not, she couldn’t stand by and watch a innocent life of an unborn child be put at risk. No matter the animosity she had towards the child’s mother, making he or she pay for her sins was just over kill.
With her mind made up, Leonica walked forward, making Angelina aware of her presence. "Hey, are you alright-" Leonica brought her hands out in a motion to help Angelina who was leaning against a wall and bent as far down as her waist, when not to her surprise, the brunette smacked her hand away the instance her eyes sighted it.
"Stay the hell away from me." She sneered, her eyes anything but friendly. Leonica was unfazed by her act of intimidation and gently rubbed the spot she had smacked. "Don’t...don’t try to act all nice with me, I know your true colors."
Leonica tilted her head to the side and eyed the brunette who was obviously struggling to calm her breath. Clicking her tongue at the fact that she had rejected an honest offer whilst believing there was a motive behind it, she asked. "My true colors, and what’s that?"
"You’re trying to steal Gabriel’s heart back, aren’t ya?"
Ah, here we go again. Leonica rolled her eyes at the absurd accusation.
"That’s the reason why you’re acting all nice, isn’t it?" Pushing herself off the wall, Angelina managed a few steps forward and cracked a strained smile. "Well, sorry to burst your bubble, Leonica," She nearly spat those words in the white-ette’s face, who had to literally take a few steps back to avoid the onslaught of salivas. "Gabriel’s mine. Nothing you do can change that. And do you know why?"
