The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia) novel Chapter 905

Beryl's POV:

I wanted to catch up with Arron and use my magic to help, but when I tried to summon my flames, I saw that my power was very weak. I stood no match against all those armed robbers.

I had no choice.

Arron had managed to distract the robbers to buy some time for me to run away. I couldn't let him down.

After hesitating for a while, I ran in the opposite direction, tears rolling down my cheeks. I had to get out of here as soon as possible to ask for help, so that Arron could be saved.

The forest was so big and dense that it blotted out the sky. I couldn't tell where I was going, so I had to run by instinct.

But soon, I got lost. Everything in the forest looked the same. I felt like I was in a maze.

I took out a candy wrapper from my pocket and tied it around a branch to mark where I'd passed. At least that way, I wouldn't run around in circles.

Just as I thought I was about to leave the woods, I bumped into two robbers. Both of them were injured, perhaps from the fight with the passengers earlier.

Fortunately, I didn't see them carrying any guns.

When they saw me, they immediately growled, saying that they had lost several of their men because of Arron and me.

I didn't waste my breath with them. I just turned around and bolted, running as fast as I could.

The robbers immediately gave chase, shouting that they'd sell me to the vampires.

I was angry and scared. I ran as fast as my legs would take me. The only thought in my mind was to see my mother and brother alive.

But I was a little child after all. I couldn't run faster than these two grown men, not to mention the fact that I had been really exhausted.

Soon the robbers caught up with me and grabbed me by the collar.

"Let me go!"
