CHAPTER 178 Entering the Dark Forest

  Before Zira could fully understand what had just happened, Malachi scooped her up into his arms before running after the group. They ran into the Dark Forest with only a small group of pixies following them, but the pixies stopped at the edge of the forest. It was almost as if a barrier was keeping them away. Zira could feel herself shaking from what just happened.

  “I got you,” Malachi said with a tight grip on her. “I will not let you go.”

  At that moment she was too dazed to do anything about it. It was when she didn’t see Zed or Arias, she started to panic.

  “Arias and Zed,” Zira questioned. “Where are-”

  “We’re right here, Zi,” Zed said, coming into view with Arias on his back, who was holding Mister Giggles.
