Chapter 0861 Jackson, Gabriel, and I immediately focus on the bedroom door, which is roughly splintered now, just moments from being ripped from it hinges. I squeeze their hands, suddenly thinking that my decision to come back here might be a little rash

Who is on the other side of that door?

What are their orders?

Gabriel groans, his legs buckling beneath him in his weakened state, falling back against the bed.
