Paul stood behind Owen, frowning at Yunice with the same expression–like she was being unreasonable.
Yunice shot back, I’m not allowed to call the police?”
“You’re not even registered!” Owen barked. “What kind of police report can a blacklisted citizen file?”
“Even blacklisted people have human rights!” Yunice snapped. “You kidnapped me, forced me against my will, tried to coerce me into sleeping with someone else–of course you don’t want me to call the police. You’re scared I’ll expose you!”
“Kidnapping? Coercion…” Lily looked at Owen, stunned, as if asking for confirmation.
Owen countered sharply, “You’re jumping to conclusions! I was just chatting with Paul. You didn’t even hear everything and now you’re twisting my words, trying to report your own brother to the cops?”
Paul added, “No one kidnapped you. No one forced you. No one laid a hand on you. If you file a false report, what are people supposed to think about your brother!”
Elsie chimed in too, “Yunice, that’s slander. Reporting that you were raped–what good does that do for you?”
Lily looked at Yunice like she’d lost her mind, like she was some kind of disease.
Staring at all of them covering for one another, Yunice felt a bone–deep disgust with humanity.
She didn’t look at any of them–just Owen. “When I was hanging on for dear life outside that building. I ran through every name in my head–everyone who might hold a grudge against me. I even suspected Elsie. But the one person I never imagined would do this.. was you, Owen.”
Owen froze, like her words pierced straight through him. His face dropped; he couldn’t hide it.
But he still wouldn’t admit he’d done it.
Yunice said coldly, “You don’t need to admit it. I’ll find evidence, and I’ll press charges–until the very end.”
“You!” Owen snapped. “It was just a misunderstanding–are you really not going to let it go?”
“A misunderstanding? Then what are you so afraid of?” Yunice stood up. She didn’t want to waste another word with this family. She just wanted out.
But Owen reached out again, trying to shove her back.
He pushed her shoulder–and that was it.
Yunice completely lost it. A wave of fury surged through her; she lunged at Owen and bit down hard on his ear.
He hadn’t been prepared. All he felt was a sharp, tearing pain. Instinctively, he shoved her back–but she held on with such violent force that even he couldn’t break her grip.
“Owen!” Lily rushed forward to pull Yunice off.
But Yunice was like a rabid hyena–once her teeth sank in, she wasn’t letting go.
Elsie joined in, clawing at Yunice’s chest with vicious fingers, pinching and twisting hard.
She figured Yunice wouldn’t dare show bruises in that kind of place–even if she wanted to press charges.
The pain hit; Yunice let out a sharp gasp and grabbed Elsie’s hand.
Elsie stiffened, their eyes met–and the next second, Yunice let go of Owen, turned, and slamined Elsie to the ground.
Elsie screamed, trapped beneath her.

Yunice’s hand shot out and twisted a chunk of flesh right on Elsie’s chest–payback, with interest.
Whatever Elsie had done to her, Yunice returned twice as hard. If it hadn’t disgusted her so much, she might’ve sunk her teeth into her too.
She dug into the softest, most vulnerable part of Elsie’s body and twisted hard. Elsie curled up in agony, shrieking
Long nails slashed at Yunice’s body in return, trying to make her let go.
But Yunice was beyond rage new–like pain didn’t even register. She didn’t let go.
Elsie screamed, “Mom! Owen! Paul–help me!”
Lily was already trying to pry Yunice off. She wrapped her arms around Yunice’s waist and pulled, but it was no use.
Owen, clutching his bleeding ear, looked at Yunice, then at Elsie being pinned and attacked–finally, he made a move to grab
Yunice’s wrists.
Paul stood to the side, frowning, shuffling nervously, unsure what to do.
Elsie’s hands clawed wildly at Yunice’s neck. So Yunice let go of the flesh she’d been twisting, grabbed one of those grabbing hands, and bent it backward.
Elsie let out a high–pitched wail. “Mom! She’s gonna break my fingers!”
Seeing her daughter’s fingers nearly bent out of place. Lily panicked. She grabbed a fruit knife from the table, raised it, and swung it at Yunice’s hand!
Yunice flinched back, instinctively letting go. The blade still grazed her fingers.
Everyone froze.
They could all see it–Lily had meant to maim her. If Yunice hadn’t dodged, her fingers might have been chopped clean off Lily forced Yunice to let go, then immediately shifted the knife, shielding Elsie behind her and pointing the blade at Yunice A few strands of hair had slipped loose from Lily’s forehead; her eyes were wide and bloodshot, veins bulging at her temple She looked like someone with a score to settle and no plans to back down
