章 605: She Refused

‘No!’ Lily shouted as she felt the tendrils pulling at the tear in the walls she had built.

She tried her hardest to hold, but she could do nothing.

When the obsidian blade had pierced the golden wall, Lily was struck. The tunnel she had built fell away because she could no longer maintain it. But she could create a small prison to contain the Dark Queen and give Caleb and Ashleigh a chance to escape.

She wasn’t lying when she told Ashleigh that they needed to hurry. The explosion really was moving between the gates. But she wanted them to move quickly because she knew she did not have the strength to hold the Dark Queen for long.

And now, the Dark Queen had found a chink in her armor. She was pulling on that weak point. Lily felt as though her own flesh was being torn away.
