381. Mose/Demon - Fight II

The sword slips from my hand and I rush to Olivia. Her eyes are closed and her skin is cold to the touch. If not for her shallow breathing, I would believe she was already dead.

Tyson and Jasper crouch in front of the sofa, their gazes fixed on Olivia. They touch her, murmuring how much they need her.

The bond tying us to her feels weak but is not in danger of breaking. It's the only thing keeping me safe.

Ansel makes it to the living room. He is in worse shape than Olivia. If all Nephilims are as strong as Asa, we are in deep shit. Killing him wasn't easy. No wonder Wasp warned the Lords about the enemy army. The Elders should find ways to ally with the Sisterhood.

Ansel keeps dragging himself across the floor until he reaches us. Hesitating, he says, "I shouldn't have kept something so important a secret."

Without looking at Ansel, Tyson says, "We will talk about this after Olivia gets well."
