Chapter 63: The Beast – Part lll

Abilene's contracted dogs lunged at her, but Ophelia was quick to swing her legs and it landed on the one with fewer tattoos. Ophelia stood up and dropped the rusted, sharp-edged piece of metal from her bloodied hand. She had been distracting Abilene the entire time she had been cutting off her ropes with the sharp piece of metal she had found on the ground.

Ophelia's hands grabbed his arms, and her legs hoisted him up by his stomach and tossed him over her head. Ophelia knew she couldn't take on both men with her legs tied, and she didn't have much time. She hurriedly attempted to untie the rope around her legs, but she could feel the men approaching. She braced herself for some powerful punches and kicks, but she frowned when a body fell with a loud thump. When she looked behind her, her eyes widened as she noticed Onyx standing behind her.
