The hall was drenched in horror. Everyone was barricaded by the flames, letting out agonizing wails of pain. Some others had frightfully skittered their way back and were looking at the flames with paralyzing dread crawling across their faces.
Tristan and Nisha, who had moved a second later, looked at me in slight unbelief.
"Cade…"
Tristan looked at me for a moment and then said nothing.
Nisha, however, stomped toward me.
"What is wrong with you?! Those are innocent people!"
I stared at her face and gave her a disturbing smile.
"What do you mean? Aren't we criminals? When did we start caring about innocent people?"
She frowned darkly.
I extended my hand, ready to release a chain in case she did anything, while keeping an unnerving smile frozen on my face.
Kassie was behind me, eerily silent.
Levi entered at that point. There was not a speck of blood on him. Rather, he looked like the one who had lazily lingered out of us all.
