"You son of b— OUCH! N-no OUCH! It hurts!!"

I could swear that I heard that cringing crack when Amber applied more force in immobilizing Don Sebastian which causing him to screech in pain. The short span of time I get to know the former pianist never have I thought that her angelic bearing could contain immense anger?

"Hope this will serve you pieces of freaking leeches a lesson to never step a foot on this land again!" There was poison in her voice alone, a sign that she is capable of bringing hell to those who will cause chaos in this sanctuary.

"W-who do you think you are?!" Gritting in pain, the struggling old bald man asks.

"Amber Nicole V. Cornell, the legal owner of this land."

I was stunned having heard her says her acclaimed last name, for I can never be mistaken, the revelation was like a bomb in my ears. Cornell... Sir Chad Andrew Cornell... No! This can't be?!

"Aren't you being too conceited enough kid? You don't know who you are dealing with." His face was beat red. He shifted his sight to one of his man who immediately got his signal and made a swift move pulling a small dagger under his sleeve and darted it directly to Amber. One of the Ovcharka or Caucasian Shepherd which has an extremely strong guardian instinct promptly attacks the man upon threatening the sudden movement of his behavior which had barely misdirect the fatal aim of the thrown dagger.

"No, Amber watch out!" But it still directly hit Amber on her right arm causing an extreme terror for everyone, screaming her name. I was terrified when I saw blood gushing out from her arm.

Trying to take advantage of the blonde's vulnerable state, Don Sebastian tried to escape but Amber was way too quick as she mindlessly took the dagger from her bleeding arm to plunge it to Don's Sebastian's shoulder that she crippled not a minute ago. I looked away from the morbidity if the scene. The old man then lets out a horrifying whine just like one of his body guard who had thrown the sharp dagger, the sharp fangs of the enormous beastly guard bore deeply in one of that man's arm. I even saw tears rolled from the eyes of the two yelping men. Panic flushes over the faces of the other remaining men as the gigantic dogs encircling them had gone more ferocious growling and salivating for the impending danger of what their potential dinner might act.

Dragging my sight up back to the former pianist, my heart swells seeing her in a bloody state. I took a step as everyone did in attempt to get near Amber. She was trying her best not to cringe from that cut.

"NO! Don't ever come near!" She alarmed. "The dogs are in their mode of territorial aggression, you will not be spared if you come near us! Paul, get everyone inside and secure the children not to see this!" 

"B- But Miss Berries how bout you—"

"Do as I say, Damn it!" She snaps authoritatively.

This only made me lose my patience I shot back at her. "Stop being ridiculously stupid Amber you are already wounded how the hell can we leave you alone!?"

I saw her clenched her grip at the old man, she tightens her jaw from holding back the pain as more blood gush out her wounded arm, she kept her hand down to the screaming Don, plunging the dagger deeper on his shoulder. "Don't argue, you're not the in charge here Russell! Just do as I say."

I was startled by hearing the throaty raise of her voice. She was always calm, despite those pranks I have relentlessly pulled on her back those days. 

Fury but with desperation for her to be followed were in her eyes. figuring I'd be stubborn enough, she looked at Khrystle who was still side by side keeping little Leo's and Eliza's back for them not to witness the traumatic chaos. "Khrystle, please..." Amber pleads.
