Chapitre 128: Was She... Dead?

Adeline surveyed her surroundings carefully. The walls bore signs of a violent struggle—deep claw marks marred the stone, and bloodstains trailed erratically across the ground.

She glanced back at Dimitri, who had stopped short and was scanning the area with narrowed eyes.

"It's clear that this cave is the home to some wild animal... My guess is wolves. Let's just hope that they don't come to find us." Dimitri narrowed his eyes as he took in the information.

He couldn't imagine what bloody fight took place. It wouldn't be ideal to stay here longer than they have to. 

They could fight off the wolves if worse came to worst, but they were already tired. It would be best to not fight a pack of wolves and instead conserve their energy. They still have to climb down the mountain after all.

Her instincts pulled her deeper into the darkness, overriding her common sense. "I need to check something," she muttered, brushing past Dimitri.
