I felt something wet on my face and tried to open my eyes. My head was pounding so hard. After a few attempts, I finally pried my eyes open and saw a woman sitting in front of me with a glass of water in her hands.
I looked at her,confused at who she was and what was she doing with me. Before, I could ask her anything, she spoke to me.
"Hey, are you okay? Do I need to call someone for you?" She asked me in a worried tone.
And then it all came to me.The goons, the alleyway, the attack. But, how did I reach here? Who saved me and who was she?
I quickly set up on the couch and looked at my surroundings. It looked like a bakery.
"Um, who are you? And what am I doing here?" I asked her, still holding my head.
"I am Natalia Fox. I own this bakery. I was working here when I heard some noise in the back alley. So, I went to see and saw you lying there unconscious with three goons around you. So, I just saved you and called the cops. And then bought you here." She said while shrugging.
"You saved me?" I looked at her with a raised brow.
She shrugged again."I had to. They could have hurt you, so I just decided to fight them, until the cops arrive."
Wow, so she was the shadow that I saw in the alleyway before going unconscious.
"Um,but why did you save me? I mean, they could have hurt you too. Why did you risk your life for me?" I asked her.
"Well, for one, I am not weak. I can fight them.I did fight them, actually. So, I wasn't scared of getting hurt. And about saving you, well I can't just leave someone in problem, when I know I can help. That's just too selfish, and I am not selfish." She said nonchalantly.
"Well, thank you then. You actually saved my life. I am Damon Ashford, by the way." I put my hand forward for her to shake and she took it.
"Well, nice name. But, isn't it ironic for you. I mean, your name means 'the one who conquers' everything, and here you were, lying like a lifeless body, by attack of just three men." She said teasingly. I looked at her and we both laughed.
