Chapter 94 - Blood Shadows

Deana screamed, clenching her eyes shut at the inevitable, as Martin gripped her arms, but just as soon as she felt his icy fingers wrapping around her bicep, his grip disappeared. Opening her eyes, she saw Ralph standing over her, his arm outstretched, palm out, his lips twisted in a feral sneer. Glancing in the direction his arm pointed, she noticed Martin on his ass against her kitchen wall, the drywall smashed inward.

Deana slid backward a little more before getting to her feet, moving to stand behind Ralph. She wasn’t sure how long the two of them could hold out against Ralph and his Blood Battalion before the others returned, but she would not go down without a fight. Taking a deep breath, she stood straighter, smothering her initial fright as she braced for the coming confrontation.
