A Bitter Struggle
Nathasia's heart dropped when she saw Damien grimacing in pain as he got shot from behind and had his movements faltering. She knew he was trying his best to not give up for her.
But Damien clenched his muscles and ignored all pain as he continued to run. He could clearly feel the bullet on his back, creating a very painful and stinging sensation on his back, as if a hundred knives were stabbed at the same point.
Still, his pain tolerance was quite high, and he was able to move even in such an injured state.
Nathasia became angry and took Damien's gun to fire at the men behind. Damien let her take over since he was too injured to even twist his arm around and aim. He was barely holding Nathasia and had no idea how long he could keep this up.
Nathasia was still bleeding from her head and had her vision becoming blurry in and out. But she shook her head and squinted her eyes to gain back more control of her mind.
