NovelEnglishChapter 0353 He was putting his hex on Selena, which would give us our opportunity to escape.
“And if I do go with you?” Enzo said, somehow oblivious to our opportunity here; or maybe he was just trying to stall. I couldn’t tell if he was even clear headed enough with his father’s current state to think about stalling Selena. : “If you come with me, I can save your father,” Selena replied with a toothy grin. “And Ill let all of your friends go.” I knew that she was lying, but I wasn’t so sure if Enzo realized it. He was too out of it because of his father, and I realized now that the false promise
that his father and the rest of TAC, live if he listened to Selena was clouding his judgment. But I wasn’t worried; as they spoke, as my friends slowly began to wake up and as Luke discreetly put his hex on Selena, I was also slowly and subtly opening a portal.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI didn’t use the formation that Luke taught me, but somehow I knew that it would work regardless. It must have been true after all that I possessed greater powers than I ever realized.
Enzo began to set his father down. My eyes widened.
“Enzo.” Richard’s voice was hardly more than a croak. I was surprised that he was even remotely conscious as to what was going on, and it seemed that Selena was as well judging from the way that her face drained of all color.
Richard then slowly shook his head. He
didn’t need to speak, but as he looked up at Enzo, his face conveyed everything that needed to be said, He was telling Enzo not to trust Selena.
“Get them!” Selena suddenly shouted, her voice shrill and angry. She pointed at Enzo and Richard, and the witch began to charge at them.
I didn’t know what happened next. It was as though something instinctual took over me, and I lunged forward with only one goal in mind.
I screamed. But it wasn’t just a scream.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was like a shockwave, and it was so powerful that it threw both Selena and the witch up into the air and backwards several feet, sending them to the forest floor a ways away. My friends stared at
me with wide eyes, but it didn’t matter During that time, the portal had not only opened but Matt, Lori, and Jessica had woken up more, and I ran over to them.
The witch and Selena scrambled to their feet, dazed from the loud boom caused by my shockwave. I hurriedly helped my friends get up along with Luke’s help, and ushered them through the portal. With each of my friends that leaped through the rapidly closing portal, I felt a wave of relief wash over me.
Selena was close now. Enzo, still carrying Richard, ran over to me. Luke leaped through, and now it was only Enzo and I.
Enzo gestured for me to go first, but 1 wasn’t going to give him a chance to
stay behind and fall for Selena’s tricks Gritting my teeth, I shoved him as hard as I could, and he and Richard disappeared.
Selena grabbed my wrist, screeching, and caused me to fall to the ground. I wrenched myself away, kicking her as hard as I could, and felt a bit of satisfaction as my shoe met her jaw.
Then, scrambling backwards on the forest floor, I just barely managed to fully squeeze through the portal right before the witch’s hand clamped around my ankle.
