The sound of Scorpius and Ethan's laughs rang in her ears, and she shook, petrified. As Ethan took another step forward, he grabbed her wrist harshly, thrusting his body closer to his hers. She whimpered, twisting her body to the side to get out of his grasp. Scorpius then grabbed her other free wrist, both pushed her into the nearest wall. Her head slammed against it, and they cackled loudly. The voices were faintly inaudible, the sounds drifting like waves away from her brain. Ethan leaned down, his eyes focused on hers. A sinister look passed through his eyes, and her heart drummed in fear. She opened her mouth to speak, but he lifted his hand, slapping her hard across the face.
