Chapter 1160


    The mmability of gasoline was notorious, and with the slightest spark, it ignited with a whoosh.


    mes licked around the perimeter of the grave, snaking up like tongues of fire and encircling


    Thssapletely. The heat scorched her face; it was searing and terrifying.


    Thssa thrashed violently in panic. She was desperately trying to break the ropes that bound her, but


    Debby had tied them too tightly.


    No matter how much she struggled, she couldn''t break free.


    "I''m out of here. You''re on your own," Debby''s voice cut through the ring of fire, its words barely audible


    over the roar of the mes to Thssa''s ears.


    Thssa was beyond reason. Her mind was filled with the sounds of roaring mes and mounting


    panic.


    She fought against her restraints with all her might, but the ropes wouldn''t budge.


    Debby, with her shlight in hand, walked away, climbed into her car, and nced back at the fiery


    circle. She stepped on the gas and drove off into the night.


    The zing circle illuminated the graveyard. The ce was as bright as day.


    Through the mes, Thssa saw the many headstones, and beyond them were the ominous woods,


    where monsters seemed ready to emerge and tear her apart.


    Huge terror enveloped Thssa. On one side was the pitch-ck distance; on the other, the fire so


    close it could consume her at any moment.


    Her primal instinct to survive made her struggle ceaselessly. The phone slipped out of her pocket due


    to her thrashing.

    The phone rang, and Thssa looked down through her tears to see that it was Lysander calling.


    Desperate, she tried to reach the phone, but it was on the ground, far from her bound hands and feet.


    The phone screen glowed persistently, with "Lysander" shing over and over, as she frantically tried to


    slide the answer button. But she couldn''t, and eventually, the ringing stopped and the screen went


    dark.


    Her hope was extinguished and her mind was plunged into despair and darkness.


    With blurry eyes, Thssa looked up to see the grass within the circle catching fire, creeping closer


    and closer.


    It wouldn''t be long before the mes reached her. And with the gasoline soaked into her clothes, it


    would only take a spark to consume herpletely.


    Shivering in terror, she curled up, trying to distance herself from the spreading mes, but they showed


    no sign of stopping.


    Fear and despair thickened with each passing moment.


    Her breath trembled, and her tears flowed freely.


    So would she lose her life here?


    No, she couldn''t die here. She was pregnant, with children at home who needed her, and had a mother


    to look after.


    But the grass was aze at her feet now; just a little further and the gasoline would ignite.


    Thssa pulled back her feet in terror, trying to keep the mes at bay.


    But the fire crept closer, consuming her hope bit by bit.


    Suddenly, the screech of tires on asphalt pierced the night, signaling a vehicleing to a swift halt.


    The urgency of the sound suggested someone wasing fast.  Draмanоvеls


    Was someone passing by?


    Clinging to this sliver of hope, she yelled with all the strength she had left.
