As Olivia was waiting for Lucian, Freya’s once meek expression turned into a devilish one. The vines followed after Lucian’s step; a thought suddenly popped in her head. Before the blink of an eye, she pushed Olivia towards the Wailroot monster.
Without wasting any more seconds, she dashed out of the door.
As Olivia sat on the horns of her dilemma, she felt a cold, wet, squishy sensation crawling up her skin. The translucent black veins wrapped around her, covering her from head to toe.
"Olivia!" Lucian yelled. Adrenaline burst through his veins, then he swiftly turned around, heading towards her.
Olivia was too overwhelmed with terror to move. Cold, spider-like fingers raced up and down her spine. She felt her body squeezing against the vines as they tightened their grip over her.
Her heart pounded violently. She couldn’t breathe. Couldn’t see. Everything was pitch black.
Oh, how foolish she was to take pity on her sister who didn’t hesitate to throw her into harm’s way. ’If only I can survive, I... I... will make her pay.’ She felt lightheaded.
A thousand hot needles pricked her skin, burning with venomous heat, making her nerves scream. She couldn’t even move her finger. Her chest felt as if the weight of a mountain was falling on it.
