Cheeky Escape
From MC's Perspective:
A searing pain erupted across my entire body, every nerve screaming in agony. Blood trickled warmly down my skin, a stark contrast to the icy fear that gripped me. I was running, fleeing for my life, when a sudden, overwhelming sense of danger washed over me.
Boom!
Before I could react, a crushing force slammed into my back. It felt like being hit by a cannonball. My body was propelled forward, careening through the dense undergrowth. The world spun into a blur of green and brown as I crashed into a cluster of trees.
A guttural groan escaped my lips. The pain was excruciating, a level of suffering I hadn't experienced in what felt like lifetimes.
Simon's laughter echoed through the forest, a cruel and mocking sound. His exhilaration was palpable, the sadistic pleasure of hunting down a wounded prey.
