"TALIA!", Damon shouted while prying his legs from the man who fell on the ground unconscious after getting a taste of Damon's elbow. The man was still holding onto Damon and after a second of struggle, Damon kicked him to the side. Bastard.
Damon's heart tightened when he realized that he won't make it.
Talia and one of the attackers were on a collision course, and there was nothing Damon could do about it.
The man's arms were stretched in front of him, and open palms were a giveaway that his goal was to grab Talia who was running toward the man fearlessly like she was planning to pass through him.
Talia's mind was muddled with alcohol, but she knew that the man in front of her wanted to harm Damon and that his goal was to use her as leverage against Damon. How can she allow such a thing to happen?
In the last moment, Talia swayed, avoiding the man's hands and she straightened her body just in time to punch the guy in the throat.
