Tyler said, âIsnât this what you wanted? You can stop the act now.â
Tyler then pressed Tatiana up against a tree trunk and leaned in to kiss her.
âNo!â Tatiana screamed, closing her eyes as tears began falling from them.
Suddenly, a loud yelp was heard, followed by Tyler cursing, âF***!â
Slowly, Tatiana opened her eyes. She saw a familiar figure standing before her, deftly throwing Tyler over his shoulder.
Sean then knelt down, grabbed Tylerâs lapel, and began punching his face repeatedly.
Frightened, Tatiana cried, âStop! Stop it!â
She ran up to Sean to grab him so he would stop hitting Tyler. She was scared Sean would actually kill the boy.
âYou ⦠How dare you? Do you have any idea who I am?â Tyler grunted out weakly, spitting out a mouthful of blood. He glared at Sean, yelling, âMy dad is Crowley Corpâs President! Hit me again, and Iâll make your life hell!â
âThe nameâs Sean Lynch, from Belbanks.â Seanâs voice was tinged with anger.
Still, he forced himself to calm down, then wrapped his suit around Tatiana. It pained him to see her so scared. He gently gathered her in his arms, and the latter instantly felt at ease.
âHear this well, dog. Donât ever put your filthy hands on Tatiana again, or not even Alistair Crowley.
can save you!â
Tyler ended up scrambling away for his life.
Tatiana cleaned herself up in a nearby washroom. Sean was there by the door when she came out, waiting for her worriedly.
âSeanâ¦â
Sean met her eyes, shooting a warm smile in her direction. âMs. Tatiana.â
+15 BONOS Tatianaâs heart ached when she realized he was back to being formal. She went up to him and pulled the coat off her shoulders. âHere, your coat. Thank you.â
âWe canât let what happened today stand, Ms. Tatiana. I will report this to Ms. Alyssa accordingly.â
Sean had a solemn, if not angry expression on his face.
âNo, please donât! Please, Sean, donât tell my sister!â Tatiana begged, holding onto his arm.
She continued, âIf Alyssa steps in, this will only spiral out of control. I donât want that to happen, nor do I want to cause her trouble, so please.â
âThat filthy mutt tried to rape you, Tatiana! How could you not do anything?â Sean cried, anger tinging his voice.
âYouâve taught him a lesson. He wonât try that again.â Tatiana was scared but even more worried about burdening her family with this.
She added, âIâm about to graduate. We wonât see each other afterward, so itâs all okay. Plus, I still have you guys to back me up.â
Sean was about to argue again when Tatiana sighed. âPlease just let me be, Sean⦠I have my reasons.â
