Chapter 141 Mutual Destruction

Natalie had been waiting for this moment. Her hands, bound tightly behind her back, quietly slipped free of the rope. As Hank's twisted face loomed closer, Natalie reached out, grabbed a handful of dirt from the ground, and flung it hard into his eyes. This time, she put her full strength into it as she was closer to him. Caught completely off guard, Hank howled in pain and dropped the dagger. Ignoring the pain, Natalie seized the opportunity and picked it up while he was rubbing his eyes frantically. His vision had clouded over. She then cut off the rope binding her ankles. Her limbs were finally free. Natalie lunged toward Hank with the dagger in hand. However, the difference in their strength was too great. He blocked it with sheer force, his hand clamping around hers before he hurled her back viciously against the stone wall. The dagger clattered to the ground. Pain tore through Natalie as she gasped for breath. Dealing with Hank wouldn't have been difficult on normal days.
