Stone Circle vittorio

Laurel was taken aback when Merrick suddenly got angry. She felt fear boil in her gut, but she also felt numb; it was a strange sensation to feel both so strongly at the same time. Laurel frowned and looked at Merrick as she took a step back, her face still void of any emotion except for the light frown that had passed onto her face. ... Merrick? He suddenly changed and she didn't feel safe at all anymore. She knew what men were like and this was the first time that he too showed that he was a man, and not just Indra's sweet, innocent child who had lost his mother. And men... They were all the same, she had learned.

Fear lurched at her but it was masked by an anger that overcame her when he said that it was her fault that Indra died, for the unfairness of it all. That's not true! she shouted at him, her previously numb face suddenly overtaken with anger. You liar, you little shit, that's not true! Take it back!! Laurel didn't know how Indra had died, but it wasn't because Laurel was with her. If only she had stayed with Laurel, then she might never have met her untimely doom the way that she had. Laurel stayed her distance, wanting so badly to feel her teeth sink into his flesh but knowing that the risks were bigger than what benefits it might reap, if she succeeded at all.
