Grayson's eyes surveyed every inch of the place, scanning with his crossbow pointed in every direction. I almost held my breath when he set his eyes where we were, I thought for a minute there he saw me, and with that crossbow pointed I half imagined the arrow would pierce my head because that is the spot it pointed but thankfully it didn't.
He shifted his gaze to the head of the Manticore, his entire concentration centered on it, he squats observing the head. It was impossibly quiet now and I had to reduce my breathing, my body was getting more numb, the toll of this spell was already happening, but I held on, I have to... one mistake and Grayson will see Dace, I can't let that happen.
Suddenly a phone rang and I knew very well it was his, he reached for his pocket and brought out a small device, placed it close to his ear, still not taking his eyes off the Manticore.
"What's your status?" I heard the speaker but I couldn't make out the voice properly.
