Letting out a cry of fury, he lunged at the girl with the intention of grabbing her and knocking her down.
However, this time the newcomer stopped just defending herself. With a quick and precise movement, she caught her rival’s arm.
She took advantage of Vanessa’s momentum and turned her body with impeccable technique.
An instant later, the most feared woman in the prison was suspended in the air.
A murmur of astonishment swept through the dining room.
The next second, Vanessa fell heavily on her back to the floor, causing a loud crash that shook the entire room.
The young woman remained standing next to her.
He didn’t even seem to have made any effort.
He was breathing completely normally.
His face showed no hatred.
Nor fear.
Just a disconcerting calm.
Vanessa tried to get up to go back on the attack.
But just a few seconds later he ended up on the ground again.
At that moment they all understood the truth.
That woman was not a simple prisoner capable of defending herself.
He was someone with professional training.
Finally, Vanessa stopped struggling to get to her feet.
Breathing heavily, he looked up at the stranger as if he were seeing her for the first time.
“Who… who are you?” he asked, his voice trembling.
The young woman watched her from above without changing her expression.
—Someone you should never have crossed.
At that precise moment, the entire prison understood that a new inmate had just arrived.
And, for the first time in many years, fear had changed hands.
