Chapter 119: To swap souls

At the back of the castle, Ester continued to run with the twins. They hadn't gotten very far from the battle, as they could still hear the clash from behind. Before they could run far, a witch with tentacle-like arms waving in the air stopped before them.

Hazel shrieked and quickly closed her eyes at the sight of the horrific creature. Ester pulled the two children behind her, staring at the witch who shifted her hungry gaze from the kids to her.

"Stay away, lowly vampire, I want to feed," The witch said, returning her gaze back to the kids, her long tongue licking her jagged teeth and wide mouth. Ester continued to protect the two of them and drew a knife from the belt of her dress, a weapon gifted by Eve.
