Lillith POV

I watch the man below me, staring at me with fear, looking from my hands to my eyes.

'What is he looking at?' I think to myself.

I look down to see a metal bat tightly in my grip.

Looking back up, I see 3 men standing near a door behind the man. I can't make out any of their faces, but it feels like they're ready to pounce.

'Are they waiting to get me or him?' I think.

"Well, princess? We're waiting." I hear one of the men say.

I instantly feel a sliver of fear up my spine hearing his voice, but I can't bear to look at him.

I look down at the bat and then at the man on the floor. I suddenly know what I'm expected to do. I don't know why but I just know he's not meant to walk out of here and he deserved it.

The rage I always feel slowly simmering bursts into raging flames. I grab the bat with both hands and raise it above my head, then bring it down onto his ribs with all the hate I've pent away for years.

Hearing the painful scream drilling into my ears is glorious. Most people would never do this, have fear or empathy for this. Yet all I feel is... serenity. Peace. Relief letting the darkness win for once.

"Again." I hear the man say.

Snapping me out of a blissful trance, the same fear I felt before creeps in harder. Slowly slithering down my spine, it made me ridgid. Needing to know who could possibly make me feel this much terror, I look up.

One of the men has grown in size since I last looked. He's massive compared to the men next to him.

"Now!" He yells, making jump and drop the bat.

He storms towards me as I walk backwards into a wall. He steps on the man's chest, causing more blood spurting from the man's mouth as he does. But this time, there's no peace in me.
