Chapter 42: Not only did Allison recognize the strange feeling of familiarity, but Kellan also felt an unsettling vibration.

As they dealt with the killer with precision, they couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong between them.

Damn! In his critical state, he desperately rushed towards Allison.

Already perched precariously on the edge of the slope, Allison lost her balance and swayed dangerously.

In an instant, Kellan leaped forward and grabbed her wrist.

Gotcha! Yet in the dark chaos, they both plummeted down the slope.

Allison felt Kellan's firm embrace around her waist, his arm protecting her head as they fell together.

Allison realized during the disorienting fall that Kellan had used his body as a shield to protect her.

When they stopped, Allison checked her wounds.

His forearms and legs were slashed, and the fall had left his right leg and arm fractured, as well as numerous abrasions.

In intense but conscious pain, Kellan slowly opened his eyes and exclaimed, Help me.
