CHAPTER 186
~Author's POV~

The forest came alive with the sound of snapping branches and pounding feet. Kane zigzagged through the dense foliage, his chest heaving as he pushed himself to the limit. Behind him, the warriors closed the distance with unrelenting precision.
Draven, however, had other plans. He darted off to the side, his movements eerily silent as he disappeared into the shadows.
