Adaline cried heavily but by the end of the tunnel, her sobs had reduced and so did her hope. The castle was too far now and with her belly, there was no way shw could reach thier in time.
He had an unrelenting grip on her that he did not bother giving up on even when they were inside a tunnel that she could not see anything in.
As a vampire, they must be able to see but as a human, it was very difficult for her. It was like walking to her death in the dark.
The moment they had entered the tunnel, the other vampire dropped Cassandra on the floor very roughly before closing the painting and picking her up.
Closing of the tunnel meant that no one was going to know that it was ever there. no one would come to figure it out and her rescue would be delayed. They were going to be successful.
The baby had stopped kicking a long time ago and Adaline had given up on every bit of her hope that she had conjured up before.
