He turned to take one last look at the route that led to the gates before going further in, and came face to face with someone who was looking at him hungrily with wide eyes…
Duncan backpedaled fast in surprise. His back slammed into the rock that he had just placed at the entrance. Duncan blinked furiously as he saw the person standing in front of him opening his mouth.
The person, or whatever the hell it was, that was standing before him looked at Duncan up and down and drooled. Duncan wasn't sure whether he should call the one standing before him a person or not. There was something odd about the one standing before him.
While Duncan could dismiss the wide eyes, drooling mouth, disheveled hair, and overall filthy appearance as a result of living in this cave, he couldn't dismiss the long nails, sharp teeth, crazy hunger in the eyes, and other aspects that bothered him.
