"You've never gotten a say in your own life, and the last thing I'm going to do is take that away from you again. Every option is yours, Kenny. Whatever you want to do, I will be your biggest supporter. But I couldn't live with myself if I didn't allow you the space to fulfill your goals, to live up to everything you've worked so hard for."

As soon as Duke flipped me beneath him and choked my neck my instincts started to kick in and I punched him in his throat, my knuckles connecting with a solid, satisfying thud.
I just hope that I didn't collapse his windpipe, after all a normal girl wouldn't know how to do that, right?
My heart pounded as I watched him stagger back, gasping for air. His eyes widened in shock, and he clutched at his neck, struggling to breathe.
He got up and started coughing while rubbing his neck.
Sorry," I say with forced contrition. "I panicked."
