Chapter 152 Chapter

"You'll what?" he snapped, his voice grating in my ear. "What will you do, my angel? Wiggle your fingers and zap me with your heavenly powers? Unfurl your wings and beat me to death with them?" His fingers had sought out the bottom of my shirt and he was tugging my clothes upwards, letting the chill of the night air creep up the base of my spine. I did struggle then. I pushed as hard as I could, but it was no use and soon he had lifted my shirt all the way up and he stepped back quickly with an audible gasp, his hand still holding my shirt up around my shoulders. Defeated and ashamed, I leant my forehead against the wall, feeling my cheeks redden and my body sag a little under the weight of what I knew he would eventually discover. I was prepared for his disgust and his repulsion. What I wasn't prepared for was for him to reach out his other hand and very gently run his fingertips down the raised ridges of skin that now decorated my body from my shoulder blades to halfway down my back.
