Chapter 406
The battle raged around the, when a loud clapping sounded from above and Katelina looked to the balcony where Malick continued to watch with an amused smile. He dropped his hands and said something she couldn't hear. A black coated vampire stepped out from the doorway behind him, holding a large metal hunting bow. As Katelina watched, he fitted an arrow, took aim and fired. The bolt streaked through the air and lodged itself into Oren's back. He gave a roar of surprise and reached behind himself wildly, trying to grab the arrow.
Another arrow whizzed through the air, this time striking Sushel through the eye. He screamed and fell back, leaving Wolfe to fight the scythed vampire alone. The archer fitted a third arrow, and Katelina realized how it would end; Malick was finished with the show and they would be picked off one by one.
