Capítulo 74: Chapter 74

“Alex stalled him downstairs,” Jim said. “She told him she wasn’t sure what rooms she had available this late and was going to check, but he’s going to start wondering what’s going on. What should we do?”

The first suggestion that sprung to mind was that they should stay, gear up, and take Gabriel head on, especially now that they had a professional with them who actually knew how to fight. Sasha’s super-strength was a nice bonus too. But Nathan thought better of the idea before opening his mouth.

“The seal that’s been hunting you is named Gabriel?” Sasha asked, walking up to Nathan and grabbing him suddenly by the arm. “Is he older? Maybe fifty? Curly black hair dusted with grey?”

Nathan blinked back at Sasha in surprise. “Uh…yeah. Just like that.”
