Faye didn’t even glance back, as if she hadn’t heard Thalassa’s plea. She quickened her pace and in no time, she was out of sight..
Once again, Thalassa was left alone and helpless.
She tried to get up, but the pain that shot through her sprained ankle was unbearable.
If she forced herself to walk, she might end up permanently damaging her leg.
With no other choice, she stayed put, hoping that someone else might come up the mountain.
But the sky was dark and heavy with storm clouds; occasional flashes of lightning streaked across the horizon. Night was closing in.
The chances of someone braving this weather to come up the mountain were slim to none.

Thalassa pulled her knees to her chest, resting her chin on top of them. She curled herself into a ball, thinking that she might be safer this way.
The surrounding wilderness was filled with the eerie sounds of insects and birds. Every now and then, the cry of a wild animal would echo through the valley, sending chills down her spine.
Suddenly, she heard the cry of monkeys, which was growing louder and closer. Thalassa’s heart raced, and she gripped her knees tighter.
Were there monkeys coming?
Monkeys were known to venture out more in this thunderstorm weather. Also, their temperaments were unpredictable. They were also hostile to human beings.
They were far more intimidating than any snake or lizard. When monkeys attacked, they didn’t hesitate to bite and scratch.
There was a news story once, about a man who had been torn apart by a troop of monkeys in the wild.
As Thalassa remembered the story, her heart was fraught with dread. She held her breath, fearing that the monkeys might detect her presence.
Despite her precautions, two monkeys appeared. While they were hopping from tree to tree, their eyes locked onto hers.
Panic washed over Thalassa. Her face got paled as she bit her lip.
One of the monkeys caught her eye, its gaze wild and untamed. It gestured to its companion, then swung from its branch and moved swiftly towards her. In her fear, Thalassa tried to stand and run. But the moment her foot touched the ground, a sharp pain surged up her leg and made her gasp.
The pain was unbearable!
Just as she was grappling with the pain, a thunderous boom echoed through the sky, lightning illuminating the entire valley.

“Ah!” Thalassa screamed in fear and clutched her ears. At that moment, she thought she was going to die.
Her scream seemed to infuriate the monkeys more. One of them leaped towards her, extending its sharp claws towards her face.
Thalassa froze in terror. Her eyes widened and her heart was leaping to her throat.
Just when the monkey’s claws were inches from her face, it was suddenly knocked aside by a powerful force, letting out a shrill shriek.
The other monkey that tried to attack was also kicked away in one shot.
The monkeys, shocked and frightened, screeched and scampered away.
Turning to see who had come to her rescue, Thalassa’s eyes fell on a familiar, handsome face that she never expected to see.
The tall and muscular man was dressed in a handcrafted black suit. His aura was intimidating, his handsome face stern and serious.
It was Lysander!
He looked like a god descended from the heavens to this wild land.
