Alicia's eyes widened, speechless and shocked to her core at what he just did. Her entire body burned from both shame and this infuriating…
When the tip of his lips curved up, Alicia saw that as him smiling in triumph and it only caused her to flare up even more. She lunged at him, and her balled fist swung forward and landed on his jaw. The punch was stronger than she had thought. Maybe because her wrath and pride had fuelled it, thus the extra strength behind it.
She was panting as Ezekiel stilled, face facing slightly sideways because of that one unexpectedly strong punch. Though she was glad her hit landed, she was a little apprehensive on how Ezekiel would react.
He licked the side of his lips, his lower lip had a cut and was now bleeding. Then slowly, he moved his face and looked back at her straight in the eyes.
"I… hate you." she hissed at him. Extreme anger raged like a lightning storm within her eyes.
