Chapter 208 Dead At Last

Another roar shook the air, and a burst of wind rushed through the area, shoving the vampires back into the wall. Spikes shot out, impaling them all as Candido struggled further through the crowd.

• “Candido, come back!” I cried, letting the tears stream down my face. “Forget about her! She’ll get you killed!”
