Chapter 117: Paid to Kill

'I can feel a malicious intent.' Snow told me.

'What do you mean?' I asked Snow telephatically.

Snow jumped down from my embrace. She hissed towards a dark alley.

"Who is there?!" William was alert. He could feel the evil intention in the air. He made a defensive stance in front of me, holding the hilt if his sword.

Slowly, men came out from the dark alley. At least two dozen men with malicious intent surrounded us from the front.

Then I saw the two brawny men from this morning. They were the ones that attempted to kidnap Cecilia.

"We meet again missy." The skinny man from earlier said.

"They were the kidnappers from earlier." I said in a hushed voice to William.

"It's good we found you at last." The big brawny man from earlier said. "Boss, she is the one we told you about."

A man with authority within the group was at the center. He looked at me directly. William saw this and used his body to block me from their view.
