Bab 35: Thank you for coming

ARH- WOOOOOO!

When I heard the faint howl from outside, Ashton froze as his eyes dilated. Even before I could think, I already knew this was an opportunity.

With the handful of sand in my hand, I splashed it into his eyes and shut mine to avoid it. Ashton immediately yelled as he got up, his palms in his eyes.

I knew that wasn't enough. So, with the left hand, I pressed the small pebbles mixed with sand on his chest, where he showed me his wound. Thanks to the adrenaline, I managed to get him off of me. 

"Ahh -- Shi --"

His shrieks were loud, but so was the noise outside. So, while Ashton hasn't recovered, I used the opportunity to hop out of the bed. I winced when my ankle hit the frame of the pallet, but I still crawled away. Hugo would find see me if I just go out of this tent.
