Chapter hundred and eighty five:The woman in Red.

Janessa!

Alexander racing towards the house made Judd uneasy but he couldn't leave their little sister knowing fully well about her ordeal with the king years before. He was after all the Shadow Knight's son and he wasn't blind to the punishment the king gave his legitimate heirs.

But it didn't stop him from turning around to watch his elder brother run like he was somehow being pursued by the sun and his life depended on it.

Alexander's heart pounded like a drunk that was out of tone. 

Tiperty-tap tiperty-tap.

He felt like any moment from there, his ribcage would be ripped open and his out of breath, and pounding heart would eap to the floor.

God no!

Janessa! 

He yelled her name again. He was so close to the door but something made him stop. Alexander must have reached for the door handle severally before he allowed himself to touch it.

Tiperty-tap tiperty-tap!
