Aria clenched her teeth and ready to hit his head with hers but another man held his collar and pulled him away from her.

Aria sighed and sat up thinking she didn't have to hurt her head or hands or legs.

​​

"F**k you..." The man who had pinned her scowled at the man who pulled him away.

Aria smelled so nice, he wanted to have his way first. He wasn't ready to let that opportunity leave.

"I want her first."

"No, I'm going first..."

Aria probably would have laughed at their naiveness but she wasn't in that state. She understood they were inexperienced in what they were doing.

Seeing them argue and fight with each other to decide, she planned to play their mind.

Vince had told her. If she couldn't bring them down straight with physical strength, she should weaken them psychologically then attack because her physical strength wasn't enough to go head-on with bare hands.

She took out her mobile and set it on the table to record everything.

Her main advantage, her innocent gullible face.

Even though she never used it to take advantage of anything that doesn't mean she wouldn't use it to protect herself.

"Peeps, how about I decide who to go first?" Her emotionless voice didn't show her raising rage in her.

A man who was handsome in them stepped ahead, "That's a better idea."

The man who was muscular in them laughed, "I'm the best choice."

Aria smirked inwardly, 'Best? You couldn't even match the dust of my husband's shoes, Hmph.'

A man who was lean looking like malnourished spoke, "We will see that."

A man who had potbelly scorned, "Like hell."

Aria ignored them and said, "I don't have a phone. Can I get a good featured mobile?"

The malnourished man laughed mockingly, "Little girl, you don't get a connection here to call anyone."

Aria smirked thinking they had a brain too but she hid her disdain well, "I want to play a song. You four dance and the one who standstill till last will go first" 'And that's only me.'

Four laughed thinking she was just a beauty with no brain. Four agreed like sheep falling one behind the other.

A man played a song and looked at Aria.

Aria was speechless hearing a generation old song, "Eww... It's soo yuck."

That man wanted to retort because it was his favorite song.

Another man played instrumental music that was drums.

Aria rolled her eyes.

It continued and Aria rejected many and selected a modern-day song before they could lose patience in her game.

Four men started dancing weirdly churning Aria's stomach. If her mood was good, probably she would have puked her guts out.

She circled around them as she checked for weapons. After pulling wooden rods aside she prepared herself.

Before the song could end, she smashed a wooden slab on the potbelly man who fainted due to sudden shock and pain.

"You..."

The handsome looking man in them wanted to curse her but his words gave away looking at her.

Her eyes had turned dark as a deep abyss. Her legs were positioned to pounce on anybody who tries to hurt her

There was no warmth on her icy cold face which was thirsting for blood. Her hands were holding the wooden rods ready to rip them apart.

For an instant, they thought she was possessed because she was nowhere looking like a helpless girl to follow their orders. They realized they followed her orders all these while dancing on her terms.

"Hey..."

Well built man pounced on her aggressively. Aria moved her hand effectively on the right sensitive and painful places of his legs, hands, and neck without letting him touch her.

"Ahhh..."

He continuously screamed in pain before falling down on the ground.

If they had kidnapped her for money, she might have helped them if they needed it. If they wanted to ravish her, she wouldn't give that chance even over her dead body.

Her father had taught her that never hurt anybody and never stay silent at the wrong things. Vince and Alan taught her never to stop fighting to be safe from anybody.

Curtis had taught her to be strong for her and for her husband to protect themselves.

She had learned over time that crying or waiting for help in the problem doesn't take her anywhere other than making her weak.

She wasn't ready to fall back just because she didn't like to hurt people.

When that man groaned in pain, two men attacked her at once. She knew her left-hand strength wasn't enough to bring a man down.

Her advantage, her flexibility.

She slid down to the other side and slammed the rob on the head of the man who had just stood up after getting consciousness.

He wasn't expecting that and again felt dizzy. Aria jumped high to match his height and hit on his neck from which he lost the balance and fell down.

She looked at two men thrusting for her blood and a man took a knife out to attack her but Aria chuckled humorlessly.

"Are you looking down on me? I played with daggers and butterfly knives."

"Hey..." He screamed, attacking her.

Aria purposefully flipped ahead to distract his attention which was successful and raised her leg to kick his hand which was holding a knife.

Before that man could react, he lost the hold on the knife. Aria knew the hold on daggers were more effective than on the simple village prepared knife.

With another move, she broke the wooden rod hard on the knee of the other man.

"Ahhh..."

The force exertion on the hit was too high hence he groaned in pain louder than any of them. She threw the broken wooden piece away and picked the knife.

When the only man standing in front of her met her sharp cold eyes, a chill ran down his spine.

He was shocked to see how effortlessly she was playing with the knife in her hand as if it was a toy.

Aria saw the man's change in expression and his eyes movement. She held the rod in her right hand and a simple twirl.

"Ahh..."

The man who tried to attack her from behind ended up earning a bruise on his head.

If they were trained, that man wouldn't have reacted and Aria wouldn't have got the hint.

Gulping his spit, that man started running towards the exit near to him but Aria slid aside and took the stone bigger than her palm and aimed to back of his head.

"Ahhh..."

He cried in pain and realized the blood staining his hand.

Aria spoke, "Oops, I didn't know the rock wasn't smooth. I will be careful about it in the next one."

That man's back stiffened and turned around. Kneeling on the ground, he started crying his eyes out "Who... Who... Who are you?"
