Chapter 48

Is This It?

SKYLA.

Then Sky fucking grab her and run!

But I know that I won’t outrun it… I’m barely standing…

The rain continues to pour down; the darkness becomes visible, almost like smoke and soon all I can see is just me and the snake in a cloud of darkness.

‘Daughter of Selene…

He spits something, what I assume is venom at me and I fail to dodge, gasping when I feeling the burning pain rush through my neck.
