Chapter 364
"No, Rohan. That's not... Please. You promised me everything. This is everything. You and the power. You fucking lied to me if you can't handle this." My voice cracked.
A whisper of awareness brushed across my senses, a new ability to sense disturbance in the universe. My nostrils flared against the stench of rot.
Demon. Behind me.
I didn't even think, flicking out a ball of flame to destroy the spawn.
Horror crossed my boyfriend's face.
I whipped around. I'd incinerated the concrete floor, turning it to blackened ash.
On the edge of the charred circle lay a faux-Pokémon bracelet.
Farther down the corridor, Drio held Leo, shielding her from me with his body. His shirt was scorched away, a nasty burn running down his ribs.
Leo peeked out from behind him, shaking.
Drio shifted, blocking her from my view, his steely stare daring me to try something.
I glanced at Rohan.
"Ro?" My voice was too small.
