Once A Princess, Now A Slave

23- Caught

Kelsie's POV

"P-Princess..." they uttered with their quivering lips.

I tilt my head and stare at them coldly. I cross my arms over my chest and slowly shake my head.

Why the hell people are testing me whenever I try to be good to them?

I walk to the sink and wash my hand. In my peripheral vision, I watch them watch me.

One of them elbowed the girl who spilled the wine on me.

"We should go," she whispered.

I raise a brow. Do they really think I did not hear them? I switch off the faucet and shake my hand to somehow dry my hands. I reach for the tissue on my right side and wipe my hands. I toss the tissue on the trash bin and completely face the two.

"So..." I started. I look down at my dress and sigh. When I look back at them, they both gulp. "What's your name?" I asked the girl who spilled wine on me.

"N-Nicole," she answered, stuttering.

"Very unique," I sarcastically replied.

She did not respond to what I said and kept her eyes on me. I darted my eyes to the other girl who is standing beside her.

"What about you?" I asked.

"B-Bleach..." she answered.

I place my hand behind me. I curled my fist into a ball. The girl named Nicole watched my movement. Her eyes dropped to my hand behind my back. She probably noticed what I was about to do so she made a small step backward. When our eyes met, I saw her gulp.

"Hmm... sounds like b*tch to me," I smirked.

Before they can utter a word, I step back my left foot, turned 180 degrees, and as I faced my back, I lift my leg. I give Bleach a 180-degree kick and hit the side of her head. Before Nicole can react to what I did to her friend, I swing my fist into her and hit her jaw. I turned to face them and saw them on the floor, wincing in pain.

"D*mn it!" Nicole curses. On the other hand, Bleached curled as she hug her knees and hides her head in between them. I give her a soft kick to catch her attention. She refused to look at me, scared that I might give her another kick in the face.

"P-please, Princess..." she pleaded.

On the other hand, Nicole quickly recovered and stands on her feet. She attempted to kick the back of my knees while my focus is on her friend. However, I have good reflexes and dodged her attack. I lift the leg that she targeted and used my hands to catch my body when I fell backward and roll over to stand on my feet.

"Too slow," I mocked.

"Such a b*tch!" she yelled.

I kick her friend who is blocking my way. Bleach rolled over the side and cried in pain. I made sure she couldn't get up. I'll deal with Nicole first.

Nicole charged at me. Before her fist can reach any part of my body, I ducked and stretches my leg to hit the back of her knee. Her left knee kissed the floor. I took advantage and give her a punch straight onto her nose. She fell on the ground with blood on her nostrils.

I stand on my feet. Since my back is facing Bleach, I did not notice that she managed to get close to me and kicked my ankle. It made me out of balanced and fell butt first on the floor. Before I cane get up, Nicole stands on her feet first. Her arms stretches up and was about to hit me with her hand. I use my arm to block her attack because it is impossible to avoid it in this position. However, before she can lay her hand on me, the door of the comfort room opened. In just a snap, Nicole's arm were held by a man's hand.

I look up to who it was.

"Nox..." I uttered.

His cold-looking eyes are all pierced to Nicole. Without blinking, he lift her arm. My eyes widen when I saw Nicole's feet leaving the ground.

"A-Ahhh. Let g-go of me!"

Nox's lips rise for a smirk. "Sure," he replied. He then toss Nicole's body. Her back hit the sink. Due to the impact, the full length mirror that was glued on the wall above the sink cracked. Nicole's body slides down the floor along with the residue of the cement from the sink. The c***k on the mirror spread. One by one, the pieces of broken glass fell right onto Nicole's head.

"N-Nox..." I called.

It took me seconds before I realized what happened. Nox went to Bleach who is still curled on the floor. He yanks his hair to meet his eyes.

"L-Let go!" Bleach begged. She tried to remove Nox's hand by reaching for his arm and attempted to throw her on her shoulder, however, aside from Nox's physique and size, her strength didn't even reach half of his.

I stand on my feet.

"Nox, it's fine. You can now let go-- oh my gosh!" My hand flew on my mouth to cover them when Nox give a straight punch to Bleach's face. The first punch made her nose bleed and almost knock her off. I thought he's going to stop but he followed it with another punch, and another punch, and another punch.

"Nox, stop!" I yelled.
