At this moment, Willow’s mind went completely blank. Just then, a strong light shone in, and she shrank into the darkness like a kitten being caught. However, when she heard a deep, familiar voice coming from the mouth of the grotto, her tears finally stopped.
“Come over here.” She crawled toward the mouth of the grotto The moment she got out of the grotto and saw Jasper’s face, she threw herself into his arms, holding him tightly around the neck despite her tear-stained face.
For a few seconds, Jasper froze in her sudden embrace, only to be stunned again when he felt her tears on his neck. She must’ve been scared out of her wits, he thought. Nevertheless, he pushed her away. “Come with me,” he said, leading her by the hand before suddenly covering her eyes with his other hand. “Don’t look around.”
Although Willow couldn’t see anything with his hand over her eyes, she could smell blood in the air. Swallowing nervously, she followed him out of the house.
As they breathed in the fresh air outside, the man’s large hand moved away from her eyes. Still, she struggled to open her eyes in the evening sun. After all, she had just spent nearly 20 minutes in complete darkness.
It was only 20 minutes, but it felt as long as half a century to her. Before she came to her senses, a muscular arm suddenly wrapped around her shoulders and pulled her into a car next to them. The man also thoughtfully fastened her seatbelt for her.
“Where are we going?” she asked. “This place isn’t safe anymore. We have to go somewhere else.” Jasper had to get her out of here. Seems like our internal system has been hacked into, which means that all the safe houses in this country have been exposed. We must choose somewhere else next.
“But where else can we go?” Willow had never imagined that she would find herself in such a dangerous place one day.
