Isobel appeared behind Sybil wit...

Chapter 163: Rain

In the few minutes Leland had with Sybil before Isobel returned, his mind wandered. He hadn’t meant to talk about it, but his true feelings about the direness of their situation had flowed. The c...

Sybil put her head down and ran. She knew the Huntress was not speaking to her but th...
