Chapter 5 Chapter 5 This forest , my personal nightmare , was nothing but a leisurely stroll for the two of them , well prepared as they were .
Chloe suddenly covered her nose , grimacing .
Ugh , whats that awful smell ? Liam was busy packing up their trophies .
Chloe , dont wander too far , he warned without looking up .
Got it , Chloe called back over her shoulder .
And then , she saw it my body .
My wasp eaten arm , stripped to the bone , lay in plain sight .
Chloe froze , almost letting out a scream , but quickly composed herself when she realized Liam hadnt noticed .
Her eyes swept over my remains , filled with a twisted satisfaction , as if admiring a job well done .
In a hushed voice , she muttered to herself , Good thing I tampered with her clothes .
That pheromone worked perfectly shes almost a complete skeleton now .
So it was her ! Rage surged through me as I watched , helpless .
If I could , I would have torn her apart a thousand times over .
But Chloe wasnt finished .
Too bad I cant let Liam find you just yet .
Im not done having fun .
With a cruel shove , she kicked my body over the cliffs edge .
In the process , she twisted her ankle .
Ow ! she yelped .

Liam immediately dropped what he was doing and rushed over to her .
Chloe , are you okay ? he asked , his voice full of concern .
Chloe , feigning innocence , replied nervously , Im fine .
I just … stepped wrong , thats all .
Without hesitation , Liam hoisted her onto his back , ready to take her to the hospital .
Nearby , the butler cautiously approached .
Sir , we still havent found Mrs.
Carter .
Shouldnt we keep searching ? Liams response was sharp and final .
No.
Emilys here for Chloe to vent her frustrations on .
The hunt is on hold .
The butlers expression betrayed his worry .
But , sir , the forest is full of snakes and insects , and the temperature drops at night .
Shes pregnant and vulnerable she could get sick .
Liam shot him a glare that silenced any further protest .
If she gets sick , all the better .
Shell learn her lesson .
inting Crounds Went Insane 2.6 % Chapter 5 One of Liams friends whistled loudly , signaling the arrival of a hunting dog .
The dog trotted up , something clamped between its jaws .
As it drew closer , the mens faces paled .
It wasnt an animal this time .
It was a human hand clean bones with defined joints , The forest , enclosed by the Bennett estate , was inaccessible to outsiders .
One man , his face ghostly white , stammered , Could it be … something happened to Emily ? Liams brow furrowed tightly .
Instinctively , he denied it .
Impossible .
This has to be one of Emilys tricks .
But his voice lacked conviction , and unease flickered in his eyes , Just to be sure , he gently reassured the limping Chloe before rallying the group to follow the dog to the site .
They were getting close .
I watched from the shadows , waiting , hoping theyd finally discover the truth .
