Chapter 720
=== BEE,
HOSTAGE FOR HOSTAGE KATHERINE The ground rumbled beneath his steps, the dark treetops looming close
above us.
T looked up at his beastly features.
He sniffed the air and changed direction.
His furry ears twitched, catching every whisper of the night.
So powerful...
It was unbelievable that Elliot was this creature.
Ahigh-pitched scream tore through the forest, sending shivers down my spine.

The trees cleared, revealing a sight that froze the blood in my veins.
A rickety suspension bridge, crudely built with vines and wood, stretched between two distant edges.
Beneath it lay a deep gorge.
Below, the swamps murky green waters appeared still, but dark shadows slithered just beneath the surface.
It was infested with alligators.
And now, on that unstable bridge, that damn witch held my daughter by the arm, forcing her forward toward this
side.
A bone-chilling roar made the woman stop in her tracks, her gaze locking onto us in astonishment.
She didnt even seem to see me.
---- Her eyes were fixed solely on the powerful beast advancing toward the edge, threatening her with each step.
"Aaahhh!" Lavinia screamed at the sight of him, sobbing, terrified beyond measure "Tts me, Lavinia! Dont be
afraid! Im your mother! Putdown, letgo!" | started pushing against Elliots chest, my boots dangling in
the air until he gently placedon the ground.
| didnt hesitate for a second before rushing to the bridges entrance.
Peering between the rotting planks, | saw a few loose bits of dirt crumble down, disturbing the water.
And then | saw them more clearlypredators, lurking, waiting for their next helpless victim to enter their domain.
Where...
where is my son, witch?! If...
if you or that monster try anything, I'll throw her off this bridge!" "Dont you dare! Let her go! Let Lavinia go!
Without her, you have nothing! Youre already lost, but if you give her to me, we'll let you go.
| promisewe won't hunt you down!" | played the only card | had leftor so | thought.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"T dont believe a single word! Im taking her, and you'll return my children to me.
Otherwise, you'll never see yours again!" She clutched Lavinia like a vulture with its prey.
My poor daughter didnt even have the strength to scream anymore.
