"Y-you bastard!"
Raj felt a jolt at the sound of those words, the weight of them shaking his already blurred and numb mind.
The only memories that flickered in his consciousness were of the first time he laid eyes on Len.
In that moment, he was utterly convinced that this man harbored ill intentions toward his sister.
What had started as a mere peer-to-peer rivalry had escalated to a point where today, he found himself contemplating taking this man's life to protect her.
Boom!
"Kugh—drip."
Before he could gather his thoughts, a heavy kick landed directly on his face.
The impact sent his mind reeling, and as blood poured from him, darkness encroached on his vision.
The combination of blood loss and the blow to his head caused him to slip into unconsciousness, plunging him into oblivion.
"Should I toss him in the water?" Rivia mused, lifting her foot from Raj's unconscious body.
