#Chapter14
/"Move it, Aleera! Twenty laps, now!/" Tobias roared behind me.
Despite not wanting to run, my feet started moving, the rocks digging into my feet painfully. It didn’t take long before the men overlapped me. Around a hundred or so barging and shoving past me. What the heck was their problem? I didn’t even know them, and they took no care when they came too close.
/"Aleera!/" I heard Zac’s voice behind me before looking over my shoulder in time to see him running straight at me. I tried to step out of his way when he dropped his shoulder and barreled straight into me, diverting slightly off track to hit me deliberately.
My body was tossed across the gravel, and I felt like I was being skinned alive. My face burned as I skidded across the loose gravel, my hands I used to try and brace myself grazed, and I felt battered and bruised all over.
