2 At the first touch of his lips on hers, her arms were about his neck in a strangling grip.
3 "No, Scarlett, no," he said in a low voice, holding her crossed wrists in a grip that hurt.
4 Prissy screamed at the top of her voice, more from fright than pain, and began to dance up and down, writhing to break Scarlett's grip.
5 Prissy broke into the room and, flying to Scarlett, clutched her arm in a grip that seemed to pinch out pieces of flesh.
6 Scarlett gave her a shove and loosened her grip.
7 With a tight grip on her he dragged her several paces away from the wagon.
8 Wade's fingers were in her skirt in a terrified grip.
9 Somewhere she flung off Wade's grip, slinging him against the wall.

15 As though he read her mind, Rhett's hand closed upon her arm in a grip that would leave a bruise, the rough grip of a careless stranger.
