"Heh." Kai grinned. "Maybe your prized poison isn't so great after all."
The corner of Vein's lips twitched. "No matter." He flipped his daggers and hid in the shadows. "I'll just have to dissect you and unravel your secrets."
"Be careful!" Kai warned and stayed closer with Jane and Theodore. He did not doubt that Vein would come after the two since they were the easiest prey.
Jane stayed next to Theodore and covered their body with layers of wind to repel any surprise attack. It wouldn't do much, but at least it would offer some sense of security.
The panic inside Jane rose, clutching at her breath. Vein was a dangerous man with his poison, and once he hid in his shadows, his prey was good as dead.
