Revenge After Death ( Michael Ford ) novel Chapter 72

Chapter 72 

I nodded and walked out of the Nocturnal

I stood at the entrance and glanced around. It was here where I was once bullied by Michael and those other people. Those drunkards had knocked me around back then

But that felt like it had happened ages ago. Everything was different now

As soon as I walked out of the Nocturnal, I heard a sound coming from behind me. I looked back warily and saw a shadow flashing past

Frowning, I backed away cautiously. An inexplicable feeling of panic rose within me

I felt like I was being watched the moment I stepped into the Nocturnal today. I still couldn’t shake off that feeling even after exiting that place

Perhaps it was because I had died once, but it felt like I had become more sensitive

The night breeze was quite cold

I took a step back fearfully. This feelingIt was exactly the same as when I had met the murderer at Sunset Alley the previous time

Another sound came from the alley. A tall figure wearing a poncho stood there with a stick in his hand. I backed away in horror. I turned around and wanted to run away. But maybe due to the fear, my legs felt heavy

Right when I was feeling overwhelmed with fear, I suddenly bumped into someone’s muscular chest

Stephie” 

The man’s chest was rising and falling quickly as he panted heavily. It seemed as if he had run over here anxiously

I caught a whiff of a light fragrance on him. He smelled good. The sound of his heartbeat was comforting too

He wrapped his arms around me. Then, he removed his jacket and put it on me

I’m hereDon’t be afraid,he said

I clung onto his clothes tightly and looked up. It was Steven… 

I don’t know how he had escaped or where he had gotten his clothes from

I glanced behind me fearfully. The alley was empty. There wasn’t anyone around

I was a little doubtful. Was it my imagination? Was it because I was under too much psychological pressure

Steven didn’t say anything. He just hugged me tightly as he fixed his cold and frigid gaze in the

direction of the alley

How did you escape?I asked quietly

I was worriedabout you.” 

Steven lowered his head and wrapped the jacket around me more snugly. Then, he took me by the hand and led me away

His actions were very natural, as if we had known each other for a long time

1 looked at Steven’s back. Why did he seem familiar? Where had I seen him before

My head hurt a little, so 1 massaged my temples gently

Steven and I went to hail a taxi

Why aren’t you wearing any shoes?” 

It was only then that I realized that Steven wasn’t wearing any shoes. The wound on his foot had split open, leaving a trail of bloody Tootprints on the ground

I frowned and held him back. You ran out in such a hurry just to find me?”
