Exiled Villainess: They Threw Me Out, Now Every Beastman Wants Me novel Chapter 91

Chapter 91: Bleeding Out

[HOST IS INJURED!]

[WOUND: Deep laceration across the back!]

[BLOOD LOSS: Increasing!]

As if on cue, the searing hot pain ripped across her back again.

Tera screamed in pain, suddenly aware of how wet her back was.

’SHUT UP! WHY DID YOU FUCKING REMIND ME?!’

It hurt!

[( ˶ó‸ò )]

[QUICK! A HIDING SPOT TO YOUR LEFT]

[HIDE QUICKLY!]

Tera saw it. A cluster of massive boulders, wedged together at angles that created a narrow gap between them.

The opening was dark and tight, and for a moment, Tera thought it might be too small.

But the monster was gaining on them.

She rushed towards it.

Her stomach was so heavy. Every step sent a jolt of discomfort through her abdomen, and the weight of the twins made her whole body protest the speed she was forcing from it.

Her vision blurred, and her legs buckled for a terrifying second before the adrenaline caught her and shoved her forward again.

The cubs were screaming. Both of them were wailing against her chest, their small bodies rigid with terror, and Tera held them tighter as hot tears streamed down her own face.

She had never been so scared in her entire two lives.

Tera shoved the cubs inside first, then squeezed in after them, her belly scraping against the stone as she pushed herself deeper.

"Go! Further back! Now!" she gasped.

The cubs scrambled deeper into the crevice, their small bodies trembling. The cat cub was hiccupping through silent sobs, too terrified to make full sounds anymore.

Tera pulled them both against her chest. She wrapped her arms around them and pressed her back against the stone, ignoring the agony of the wound being pushed against rough rock.

"It’s okay," she whispered, and her voice shook so badly the words barely formed. "It’s okay. I’m here. I’ve got you."

The dinosaur reached the boulders the very next second.

A massive clawed hand slammed against the gap, and the impact sent a shudder through the entire rock formation.

The cubs screamed again. Stone dust rained down from above, and for a horrifying second, Tera thought the boulders would collapse inward and crush them.

"Don’t move," she whispered. "Don’t move. We’re safe here. It can’t reach us."

She didn’t believe a word of it.

The monster’s claws scraped against the stone, trying to reach inside, and she shrank inward, pressing as far back as she could go.

She nearly screamed as a claw slashed at the air inches from her face, and the rotten, metallic stench of the creature’s breath poured into the crevice like poison.

’She did this.’

The thought hit Tera with a fury that temporarily overrode her terror.

Kiri had led this thing towards them. Tera was sure of it.

Her body shook with rage as much as fear.

She should have banished Kiri from the start or even killed her herself, no matter what the others would have thought of it. All the petty cockblocking did not warrant any of this!

’That devil incarnate!’

The monster swiped at them again, and this time it caught the edge of the rock, sending a chunk of stone flying inward. It hit the wall near the cubs, and the bear cub let out a wail so raw and terrified that it made Tera’s chest crack.

A sharp pain tore through her stomach.

Tera doubled over, gasping. Her hands flew to her belly, and for one horrible, frozen second, she thought the worst.

’My babies—’

"System! Please check," Tera moaned, crying.

She was going to rip Kiri’s head off if she lived through this.

[SCANNING!]

[...]

[Foetal status is stable!]

[The babies are fine, Host]

[(ó﹏ò｡)]

[The pain is caused by physical strain and stress on Host’s body!]

[Host must calm down!]

"Don’t—"

’DON’T TELL ME TO CALM DOWN!’

[Elevated stress hormones are putting additional strain on the pregnancy!]

[(っ◞‸◟ c)]

[Host must control her breathing and reduce panic!]

Tera pressed her forehead against the top of the bear cub’s head and forced herself to breathe.

She wasn’t fine.

’No! Tell them not to come!’

’That thing is massive! They could die! I don’t want them anywhere near—’

’You don’t know that! That thing is fucking huge! What if—’

’With WHAT?! There is no space to even move. Just leave me!’
