Chapter 167

[SAMANTHA’S Point of View]

[Samantha! There’s no way you’ll survive that thing! Run with the kids!]

[And what? Let you and Killian die in here?!] I snarled at my husband as I saw him grimace in pain. The wound was slowly healing, but the bleeding hadn’t stopped yet. Despite the injury, Dominic stood on his feet beside me and glared at the beast before us. His eyes were crimson, and he bared his razor-sharp teeth. He licked the wound on his shoulder as the skin slowly healed until it was nothing but an ugly scar.

[Go, Samantha…] he snarled softly, refusing to look at me. He squared his shoulder as he crouched again, ready to fight back, but I could tell that wound, despite being healed from the outside, must still be excruciating and still fresh from the inside.

I glanced at Devon and Diana. They were still curled in that hollow space on the cave wall, embracing each other. I caught Diana’s eyes and saw her terrified of the monster before us.
