Bab 379: Chapter 378: Overlap

Kat PoV

"Oh little Dogkin~! Where oh where might you be~? I'm starting to get a little... annoyed here, Dogkin. Come out now, Dogkin... If you make me wait any longer, I'll enjoy your screams as I flay the skin off your pretty body..."

Slithering slowly over the various roots, the Lamia searched through them all incessantly, and I felt my heart pound inside my chest whenever she drew near.

"I know you're still here... Erika may have spoken to you, but there was a gleam of intelligence in those amber eyes of yours, Dogkin. The smarter move would have been to hunker down and hide, letting us fight it out before backtracking for you, hoping to find a track to follow... That's what I would have done, Dogkin, so I'm sure you've come to the same conclusion!"

She continued to hiss softly as she moved around the trees slowly, and I held back a flinch as I heard her spear break apart some roots, her anger showing.
