---- Her teary, desperate eyes met mine, and my soul clenched in my chest.
If that woman found out Francis was dead, she wouldnt hesitate to throw Lavinia to the crocodiles.
"Its...
its fine.
We'll bring you Francis, but you have to wait safely on the shore, we" BAM! Aheavy sack dropped near me, making me jump and cut off my words.
I could swear I heard a faint groan from inside it.
Now that the cold breeze swept through, a pungent stench of urine hit my nose.
It reeked of terror and death.
Elliots sharp claws tore through the fabric, exposing I covered my mouth with my hands, my eyes widening in shock.

But the moment she saw the massive werewolf at my side, she started making strange noisesshe was crying, tears rolling down her filthy face.
Her distress only grew when Elliot stepped closer, growling menacingly.
I didnt know who she was.
Why had he carried her all the way here? ---- He grabbed her by the hair and yanked her up into the air with brutal force.
Bile churned in my stomach at the sight of her arms bound behind her back, wrapped in blood-soaked clothsonly up to the wrists.
