---- I look up and I see Damians brows furrowed.

This time the sound of the leather making contact with the skin was not heard He opens his eyes to look up and for a second I see surprise cloud his eyes as he realised it's me who had dared to intrude into his punishment.

That's enough! She has had enough! My voice comes out loud and confident and I see Damien tilting his head to the side, settling his chin on his palm and smirking looking into my eyes.

Tt's not you who decides that, Robin.

T don't care! I feel a grip on my cargo pants.noveldrama

And I look down to find Lilly begging me with her eyes.

Asking me not to say anything.

Ignoring her I take the whip from her hands and step closer to him.

He looked amused, if anything.

This was nothing but a joke to him.

---- ee = And then I see him riding up from his seat and approaching me Tsk tsk Robin.

Our great superhero.

Circling me he stops behind me and I gulp when he leans closer to whisper.

Forfy five whips are still left.

Would you like to take them on her part? Iclench my fists around the whip and breathe heavily.

Can I do that? Lilly isnt even my friend.

She has only bullied me since the day I came here.

But she doesn't deserve this.

She is already on the verge of unconsciousness.

If 1 let her continue? She won't be able to hold it Walking past me he looks at everyone else and then chuckles.

---- What say recruits? Should our dearest Robin Hood replace Lilly for her punishment! Can he do that for someone else.

Is he really that o selfless He smirks to look at me over his shoulder and my blood boils.

He thinks I can't do this? Twill do it.

I whisper and I see that smile vanish from his lips.

All the humour is gone, getting replaced by a dark cold aura enveloping around us.

---- eee = Chapter 330 I stepped forward, my voice steady despite the weight of his cold stare "T admit she was wrong to lie but she doesnt deserve this, No one does.

I said firmly.

So I'll take her punishment.

The murmurs died down, replaced by an intense, almost eerie silence.

Eyes darted between me and Damien, disbelief written across every face.

Lilly's expression twisted to shock, but I held my ground, squaring my shoulders Damien paused, and then with slow, calculated steps, he closed the distance between us, his eyes dark and unreadable.

The first rule to my training is to protect yourself
