Book 3 : Chapter 14

I soon reached the battlefield. Stella was clearly close to winning. There were few King's men left alive most of which were fleeing into the trees. The medics had also been sent out to tend to injured Stella soldiers and many were checking the bodies of King's men ensuring they weren't still alive.

I scanned the area for Connor hopefully before any Stellas saw me and tried to drag me away. After tuning my ears, I heard him. An in pained groan coming from not too far away. My heart began to pump as I searched through the remaining soldiers, the bodies and into the forest.

I then spotted him right in the middle of the open field. With Leo. His head between his hands.

"LEO NO!" I shrieked from over a hundred meters away. My voice radiated across the battlefield turning the heads of anyone still alive.

But it was too late. A split second before, Leo had snapped his neck.
