CHAPTER 56
~Valeri's POV~
The crowd murmured. I just rolled my shoulders and got ready. She passed the ball to me this time.
My turn.
I dribbled once and twice, shifted left, and feinted right. She bit on the fake, and I cut in and launched myself toward the net.
I jump and then shoot.
Swish.
1–1.
Titania narrowed her eyes. Good. This time she wasn't smiling.
We kept going.
She faked a spin, slipped past me and scored again. 2–1.
I bit the inside of my cheek. Her style was different. It was almost like she was dancing. And I could feel something brushing against my skin each time she moved.
It felt like wind, but it wasn't nor was it any pressure.
Magic.
Titania was using cheap tricks but I wasn't backing down. As that only meant that she was scared of losing to me. I was a threat she could not explain.
