"Joel!" Eason shouted in a panic as he rushed up the ladder.
Dexter glanced reluctantly at Eason and Joel. "Are you two reenacting the Titanic? I haven't even left yet. What's all the commotion about?"
Only then did Eason realize that Dexter was still down there. Even the dogs were afraid of that lunatic.
Without a doubt, those ferocious dogs came to a halt about three meters from us, all baring their teeth and preparing to attack. I was astonished as well. These fierce dogs appeared to be afraid of something. Could it be that they were truly afraid of Dexter?
"Come up quickly." I carried Ashton and Xandra out, passing Yara to Maverick, who was guarding outside. As I prepared to exit, the cover above was shut.
Maverick appeared visibly distressed. I should have realized from the start that there had to be someone else out there.
