Chapter 115: Away From Wolves And Into More Trouble

Ty

The Empusa let out a husky laugh, and Ty wanted to yank Carla back, but she was too close to the cave's entrance. The Empusa could snag her and seal her in, and he'd never get to Carla in time. His Oracle gifts had worked for him before with the werewolves but had left him unconscious. If he used them again, would they be able to escape, or would he wake and find Carla dead, and he the Empusa's next meal?

"Carla." He licked his lips. "Come with me. Just move one foot in front of the other."

"I-I can't move."

Damn, Carla must have looked into the woman's eyes. Any person seeing the creature would run, but she had a way of paralyzing her prey with one glance. Kind of like Medusa and her sisters, but instead of their bodies turning to actual stone they lost the ability to move.

The werewolves jerked to a stop. The Empusa would devour all of them too and still be hungry.
