Andrew, hearing her call, swiftly took down the last of the killers before rushing over. When he saw Lucas collapsed on the ground, he asked anxiously, “What’s wrong with him?”

“He’s been poisoned. There was venom on the blade,” Sloane replied quickly. “We need to get out of here now–I can’t treat him until we’re somewhere safe.”

Andrew gave a quick nod, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes. “I’ll carry him.”

Without another word, Sloane helped him lift Lucas onto his back. Her gaze swept the area to confirm that all the assassins were down, then she took off running behind Andrew as they fled through the forest.

But they hadn’t gone far when Lucas, still unconscious, suddenly coughed up a mouthful of black blood.

Sloane’s heart dropped. She immediately ran to him and checked his condition. His face was an alarming shade of bluish–purple, his breathing so faint it was barely detectable. The poison was already attacking his vital organs.

This is bad… if this keeps up, he won’t last much longer… she muttered to herself, a flicker of determination flashing in her eyes.

Without hesitation, she grabbed the dagger from Andrew’s belt and sliced her own wrist open. Blood gushed out instantly, trickling down toward Lucas’s lips.
