Chapter 104: Horror {1}
There was immense silence as Alice patted her horse, the creature neighed at her action, she took so much concentration on her horse.
I remained still, the two knights still holding me, how foolish of me, everything for this riding seemed off, I should have known the scent I got from these dark knights were different, this must be probably her underlings. My heartbeat quickened with every pace, well it would all be over soon, I assured myself, all I just have to do is call for Mint to come to my rescue.
"Thinking of calling upon your familiar?" she asked, still patting her horse.
I froze with wide eyes, how does she know about Mint?
"I assure you don’t, it could get messy"
But I was defiant, I wasn’t gonna let her have way. "Mi-"
I was choked as one of the knights held me by my throat so tightly that I was raised to my feet, my legs wagging at the loss of gravity, tears leaked from my eyes because the pain was unbearable, it was like he was squeezing my windpipe, I whimpered in pain. His hold got tighter and tighter and for a moment there I saw my life flash before my eyes.
"Enough!"
I was let off to drop to the ground, I coughed painfully, I wasn’t just coughing, I was coughing blood and the horror got to me.
