Meg nudged her head up, peeking over the log. Dante was still in

called her, was a hissing mass of claws and sharp teeth. Blood

streaked across Dante’s face as the cat’s claws found purchase in his

flesh. Dante wrapped a hand around the cat’s throat and squeezed.

“I changed my mind,” Dante yelled. “I’ll take the hag. You take

the cat.”
