Chapter 154

70. His Arrival

SKYLA.

I slash through another serpent, the sword itself holds power… I can feel it pulsating up my arm.

“Ri?!” Mama’s voice comes.

“She’s here.” Mama Red’s voice comes, she sounds in pain…

“Where are you?” Granddad El growls.

“We’re trapped. Sephora caved the walls on the left, near the kitchens. She put something in the air to weaken us, but we’re both fine. I’m healing, and she and Raihana are fighting…” Mama Red trails off.

There’s more to it, but she’s not saying it. 5

I’m fending them off, moving with more speed and agility than ever, unable to reply anymore.

My aura is keeping them away, and although they come close, they are unable to attack me directly.

It doesn’t deter them, as they continue hammering against the roof, clearly knowing I can lose my balance.

With every passing moment, that darkness is growing.

The smell of blood is strong in the air, mixed with the smell of dirt, ash, and smoke.

I stare at the shadows. He won’t be here completely…

“I’m coming!” Rayhan’s voice comes, “Kitten, take care of yourself.”

“Kitten is my word,” Grandad El says breathlessly before he grunts, clearly in battle, making Mama Red chuckle. 8

“I’m afraid I don’t agree,” Rayhan replies, making me smirk. “Be careful.”

“I’ll be fine, go Rayhan.” Delsanra answers. Her voice is weak, and I don’t think she’ll hold for long.
