It seems perfectly reasonable that Miss Winterbourne’s bodyguard attacked you, as your remarks were deeply insulting to Miss Winterbourne." Charlos replied after taking a deep breath. “But—” Adrian was about to object to Charlos’s words, but Charlos clearly showed no interest and felt not the slightest bit of guilt over Matteo’s attack on him—the very person with whom Charlos’s workplace was set to collaborate.

"That bastard Wade planned this. He's hiding from us. Let's go to his company and make a scene. Trash his reputation—he'll have to come out and pay us."

"We're looking for Wade Watson," Jennifer snapped. "That ungrateful jerk stole my daughter's youth and took our money. Tell him to come out and face us!" The guard's face hardened. He raised his shield. "Mr. Watson's been transferred. He's not with this branch anymore. Leave now, or we call the police."

The look sent a shudder down my spine and I physically trembled. “We will discover who the traitor is and when we do, they will wish they had died that night.” Eris looked at the soldiers lined on the ground. The spies had hit a great deal. It was the most dead bodies from Death’s army that I had seen. “Return to your post,” he tilted his head towards our direction for the slaves to leave. Aria immediately took my hand and whispered, “Are you okay? How’s the injury, I really think huh should have seen a doctor.” Her voice was not low enough because Violet and Death swerved their heads in my direction.

I watch in horror as the hybrid grabs him effortlessly by the shoulder and plunges the weapon deep into his chest. For a moment, the room loses gravity while we stay suspended, watching as our warrior hangs his head. I can hear nothing above the buzzing that infests my eardrums. Our soldier's body goes limp, standing only because of the hold of his assassin, while the room seems to choke on air. The hybrid flings the man away as if he were nothing but a ragged doll, disposable and lifeless.

“This isn’t right.” Dakota grumbled. “These rogues aren’t doing anything but going back n forth growling. “GET TO THE DUNGEON’S! Kruz yelled through mind link. “Wait!” Dakota bellowed. “We can’t leave the rest of the areas unguarded. SHADOWS! To the dungeons!” He ordered. “BlackPaw protect the surrounding pack house!” Connor ordered. With their orders, the warriors went to battle. Kydence shifted into her Shadow and glided in the dark corners making sure that they weren’t caught by surprise. “Mimi, Judy, do you see anything?” She asked.

Verna hissed but stayed at the rear of the charging forces. Arrows flew to the air and hit the imperial soldiers, but they seemed to be invulnerable to the projectiles that fell harmless to the ground. For some reason, the whole army of imperial soldiers seemed to have gained some mantle of protection that the darting arrows were unable to penetrate.

he muttered, “they remember—they hate.” Maren struck fast, decapitating one, then another—but even severed, the creatures crawled. One sank its talons into her leg. Lupa howled and tore it free. And then Silas faltered. One of the skeletons impaled him through the chest with a jagged rib bone. He staggered, eyes wide. He tried to speak—tried to finish the last word of his protection spell—but the magic collapsed with a sharp snap. His body crumbled before it hit the ground. Dust and cloth swirled on the wind. Only his pendant remained, charred and cracked.

Sariel squeaked, using his ice to freeze a skeleton that was almost close to him. Unfortunately, his ice didn't hold and the skeleton burst out, running faster as it raised it's sword. Prince Ludiciel instantly appeared in front of Sariel and punched back the skeleton. His power was enough to blow a hole in a mountain but the skeleton was only pushed a few spaces back before it began to run towards them again. "Damn it." Prince Ludiciel cursed, holding his hand. "That hurt. The skeleton is extremely hard and heavy. I don't think we can fight these things head on."

The sky and the ground were filled with skeleton warriors. They held bone blades and swords in their hands. There were even some who directly picked up their companions' leg bones and skulls, using them to attack Qin Haodong and others. These guys were like locusts. Every time one of them was killed, the insect inside would once again burrow into the ground. Soon, a new skeleton warrior would come out.

Eyeless sockets stared eerily as they marched closer. Callie knew about them. They were part of Mammon’s army of the dead. They used to be men that made deals with him to win wars and now served him for eternity as payment. All three of them had crowns on their helmets signifying they were all once kings. Nadia didn’t hesitate and started throwing energy blast at one of the skeleton soldiers. Nicholas fought one off with his axe and with Bishop. Matthias joined the fight and made the earth rumble, causing the last skeleton to fall. Aubrey threw a potion at the fallen skeleton and whatever it was started eating through its armor and bones.
