Chương 668: Chapter 18 : The Perfect View

*Mila*

I kept the box pinned to my chest as I raced away from the graveyard. Soren could talk to his henchman all he wanted but I wasn’t going to stick around, especially if what Payne said was true and there were other bounty hunters closing in, I had to get far away.

Just outside the cemetery, my knees started to ache. The pain spread up my hamstrings and into my hips. Every step sent shocks of pain through my legs. I had to slow down to ease the pain but it still crept through me.

My hips felt loose, like they’d collapse if I took too many more steps. My knees were dizzy and threatened to buckle.

I groaned and clenched my teeth. My lower back started to ache, too. I’d never get far like this.

Why couldn’t I just heal already? I’d overcome the worst of the poison and the pain but it just wouldn’t go away!
