"Everyone will do their parts. Cain won't leave the forest alive."

Avery's heart pounded hard in her chest, the words echoing in her ears over and over again. Her hands trembled as she held onto the tree tightly.

She bit her lip hard to keep from gasping. Her body screamed at her to run, to leave and forget she'd ever overheard this. But she couldn't—she wouldn't. Cain might be the nastiest person to her. He might hate her, but this was much more than his hate.

Her gaze flickered around, trying to catch a glimpse of the faces, but the shadows were too thick. Their voices grew quieter now, almost impossible to make out. She strained her ears, but only caught fragments of their murmurs before they began to move away.

Avery exhaled shakily, her legs nearly giving out beneath her. Her mind raced. She needed to tell Cain. Now.
