CHAPTER FIFTY-EIGHT:

~Drake:

Dane pushed me to shift right as the vampires took off with the first set of guards. And in one swift movement we were in Dane’s form and pushing Avery gently behind us.

‘I can do the honors,’ Archer had just linked right before the guns appeared.

‘I think you all may want my help,’ I sent back the moment Avery was behind me.

Shots went off and Avery was well hid behind our form. We turned briefly to nudge her to a smaller position behind these trees. We looked at her for a long moment as shots rang through the area around us.

She nodded, seeming to understand. And then when I heard a break in their reckless firing I charged out. Yes, a huge gamble that these guys too had regular weapons and not anything crazy. And it actually worked.

For a few minutes.

In the stampede of our small but mighty group entering the field, I shouldn’t have been that surprised when I heard Archer call out.

‘Goddess! What is this?!’ he asked frantically through the link.
