Take Me Away
Chapter 8 Kristen Is Here
"From now on, you will stay with me all the time," Spencer commanded as he strode in front of her. "Don't just hang around like that. Look at those silly guys. They are all captivated by you."
"Just send me back." Glaring at Spencer's broad back, Fiona trotted to catch up with him almost out of breath.
He stopped suddenly, causing her to stumble and almost crash into him.
"Hah! You wish! I know you don't like to stay with me, but I want you to stay so that I can torture you," he answered.
"What?" Fiona fumed. 'Spencer, you are torturing yourself as well!' she thought to herself.
He took Fiona to the open-air combat field. Dust was rising from the ground and two people crashed into each other viciously.
Daniel Li ran up to him, saluted and said, "Spencer, we haven't fought for a long time. Do you want to fight me? I've heard that if I can defeat you, I will get the opportunity to listen to Fiona playing the piano."
Fiona raised her eyes and looked at Daniel. He was a big, dark guy, half a head taller than Spencer, and he looked earnest and stout.
"Who told you that?" Spencer demanded, glancing at the battle ring.
"Spencer, please!" Daniel pleaded.
Eric came over and laughed. "Spencer, Daniel worked harder after the last time when he lost to you. He won't give up until you give him a chance to redeem himself."
That large man had lost to Spencer?
Fiona was shocked. She couldn't believe it.
When Spencer turned and met Fiona's gaze, he felt like he had been insulted.
Was he being looked down upon by a girl? She didn't seem to believe that he could beat Daniel!
"Okay!" he said finally. "Keep your eyes open. I'll let you see how capable I am."
"Oh God. You are a really violent guy!" Fiona snorted in disdain.
He didn't bother to respond to her accusation; instead he just took off his coat and threw it towards Eric. Now he was only wearing a fitted black vest leaving his strong back and angular arms exposed to the elements.
He had a nice, athletic body.
That was all she could say about him. He was certainly not her type though. She liked men who wore white shirts and smiled brightly.
