Chapter 453: Enemy

~ ZEV ~

When they left the cave he'd known, though he'd been unwilling to say, that their time alone was limited. Not only would Nick be certain to go back and raise the alarm, but he suspected Sasha would have no real comprehension of just how determined the humans would be about finding them again.

While they may have threatened to end the project and kill the Chimera many times—and Zev knew those threats were real. He'd seen the notes on the meetings—he also knew that the Team had new hope as a result of he and Sasha's child. And that the Chimera were a rich resource that they would have stripped for as much money and power as they could.

To have them all simply disappear one day was not a blow the team would take philosophically.

He'd told her that they needed to be sure Nick actually left. And he knew he could easily hunt and provide food for them for the weeks they needed to stay.
