Chapter 161: Chapter 161

Saelises' nails clicked against the metal floor. Their eyes blazed with fury with me as their sole focus. They didn't appear to see the ghosts of the females right in front of them as they funneled inside.

Nesbit was almost upon me.

Doctor Daryl's soulless eyes swallowed me whole as he neared. He rounded behind me to tap the wall, the cold surrounding him bristling the hairs up my neck.

The Saelis males kept barging through their dead counterparts just behind Nesbit.

I took a breath, a shallow one because the weight of the next few moments pinched the air. The flimsiest of plans formed inside my head, nothing more than brittle bones of a skeleton, but it was all I had. Ghosts I could sort of handle. It was the giant Saelis males eating up the distance between us I wouldn't be able to survive. Maybe I could deal with both at the same time.
