You are not alone
Was this worth it? Definitely not. Other than that initial punch, her plan had gone to shit, and now she was left bleeding from no less than three deep slices, pain radiating across her arm and back, strength leaching quickly.
The brief brush against his foot eased some of the suffering, a shiver wracking down her body as it attempted to stop up the worst of the bleeding. She couldn't stop the sigh of relief at the smallest dampening of the pain, the halting of his assault. Her strength was gone, her body broken, but she still felt the anger there, the injustice at having been attacked so brutally even when infected. And being unable to even the score.
Curling her hand into a fist, Thal growled at his words, at the apathy disguised as mercy. She wanted to rise - wanted to land a proper punch this time - but when she tried to push from the ground, excruciating pain laced up her body, a strained growl turning sharp as she dropped back down, shaking with effort but unable to rise.
Her breathing was labored, yet she spared enough to mutter, "Bastard." She lifted her blazing blue eyes to him, teeth clenched and brows furrowed in a mix of hurt and frustration, unable to fight and unable to flee if she wanted to.
