A MAZE OF GREED

"Don't stop, Ruth. Run, run!" Thea yelled again while moving her hands. Before Edwin turned her around and got a chance to see her face, Ruth pulled her hand up and jabbed his nose. Edwin wailed in pain as he felt his nose go numb with pain. Instinctively he freed Ruth to cover his nose with both hands. He bent over a little as his eyes watered because of pain. "You!" He hissed in anger as he leapt again for Ruth. But she managed to run before he could catch her again. Her head turned around in shock when Edwin's hand tore her dress when he tried to grab her. It also surprised Edwin as he had not intended for this to happen. He looked up from the piece of cloth in his hand to see gorgeous hazel eyes. He stood rooted to his spot as his mind went blank. Ruth managed to get out of the property and ran with Thea without looking back. The guard came panting, but Edwin didn't notice him as his eyes were still trained on the gap in the wall, through which Ruth escaped. He slowly looked at the brown fabric in his hand, and the image of those alluring hazel eyes flashed in his mind. He clutched the fabric tightly in his hand, and the word left his lips in a whisper.

THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING

"Lisa... keep talking. Don't close your eyes." Zoe called her again, only to hear her soft murmurs. Her breathing was turning shallow.

Zoe could feel the wetness of Lisa's blood on her back. They still needed some time to reach Vincardine as Zoe had to stop on the way near a spring. Lisa's body was dehydrated, and without water, she could have barely made it through, so Zoe helped her drink some water from the spring.

In an attempt to make some conversation, Zoe kept asking Lisa about her life and the past one year of her life that she had spent with Darius. And with every detail, her heart pained for the unfortunate human.

When Lisa told her about her parents and how coldly Darius murdered them right in front of her eyes, Zoe was beyond just shocked.

If only Zoe had any idea about it before, then she herself would have killed Darius when he met her in Synchena.

That manipulative man was too sick to deserve a life!
