Chapter 143 Harris Is Catching Up

Even though Rosalie saw Leon every day, her heart was still racing.

Leon didn’t say anything. He just slowly reached out and pulled her into his arms.

Holding her like this finally made him feel a little safer. Rosalie could tell he was anxious, so she grabbed his hand to try to calm him down.

They stayed quiet, simply enjoying being together again.

Suddenly, the ground above them shook. Then they heard a bunch of footsteps passing right over their heads.

Rosalie and Leon looked at each other in the dark. Both of them thought the same thing, They’re here!

Rosalie held her breath, scared the beastmen above them would notice something.

In the silence, her own heartbeat sounded like a loud drum in her ears.

With nothing to see, time dragged on. Maybe because Julien’s scent still lingered here, Harris and his men kept circling the area for what felt like forever.

Finally, the footsteps above them faded away.

Rosalie’s heart, which had felt stuck in her throat, finally calmed down. Leon rubbed her back, trying to calm her.

Just to be safe, Rosalie waited a little longer before pushing aside the cover at the opening and crawling out.

Taking in the fresh air, Rosalie felt like her lungs were finally clean again.

The air inside the hole wasn’t great for a pregnant woman.

There were messy footprints all around the rocks. Since Harris hadn’t found them, he probably went looking for Julien. Hopefully, Julien had taken care of the beastmen he’d led away.

Suddenly, Rosalie spotted a tiny black dot in the distance. She squinted to see what it was, but then it let out a deafening roar.

Leon’s face changed instantly. His voice turned sharp. “Crap! Harris left someone here to keep watch. He’s sending a signal!”

Rosalie panicked. Harris hadn’t been gone that long-he’d definitely hear that and come

charging back.

Leon sat Rosalie down on a big rock. “Matriarch, I have to take him out, or we’re never getting away!”

Right after saying that, Leon shifted into a black panther and dashed toward the tiger that was sending the warning-fast as a black flash.

Rosalie watched anxiously as the panther and tiger fought in the distance.

The tiger was about twice the size of the panther, but the panther was way more agile. Leon slashed the tiger several times, making it dizzy. The tiger roared in frustration.

Rosalie was getting anxious. She had a bad feeling about this. She yelled toward Leon, “Hurry up! Finish it and let’s go! Harris is coming back!”

Hearing her, Leon’s attacks turned vicious. He caught the tiger off guard and slashed its throat in one move.

Once the tiger was down, the panther jumped onto the rock. Rosalie hopped onto his back and said, “Head for the city!”

She was betting that Harris wouldn’t dare make a move inside the city. If he did and Yuna came back, he’d have to face her scary guard team.

The panther sprinted through the forest so fast that Rosalie’s hair was flying behind her.

She frowned, feeling a growing sense of dread. Her heart wouldn’t stop racing.

Sure enough, a second later, she heard the sound of messy footsteps closing in.

Rosalie turned and saw Harris and a few of his men coming back.

She gritted her teeth and told the panther under her, “Leon, Harris is catching up!”

The panther silently pushed himself faster.

Harris’s footsteps were heavy-each one felt like it stepped right on Rosalie’s heart. If they got caught, she wouldn’t survive, and she’d drag Leon down with her.

Suddenly, the wind brushing her face slowed. She reached down and felt Leon’s fur-it was damp.

Leon came to a stop. Rosalie panicked. “Leon, we’re almost there! Keep going!”

But Leon shifted back into human form. Rosalie ended up lying in his arms before he carefully set her down on the ground. “Matriarch, I’m so dizzy. I don’t think I can make it to the city.”
