Chapter 25

Felicia stumbled as she sprinted toward the village. The village dogs caught wind of an intruder and immediately began barking furiously. Soon, nearly every dog in the village joined in.

Sweat broke out on Felicia's forehead as she realized she had overlooked this detail-the barking would alert the villagers and the criminals pursuing her!

The buyer will come to collect her in the morning, and then everyone in the village will share in the profits!" Felicia froze, her heart sinking. Were the villagers complicit in this?
