When Anastasia’s gaze landed on the two girls, her hand instinctively slamd against her mouth as she tried to quieten her sob.
"To the pile," Samantha ordered, and the n dragged both Angelina’s and Elizabeth’s bodies to the dead pile.
Anastasia watched as both Angelina’s and Elizabeth’s bodies were both taken to the pile.
"That other one..." one of the hunters said pointing at Elizabeth. "When I found her, she was already dead. It seed a snake had bitten her but I just shot her with the arrow cause, why not?" He laughed at the end of his words, his big belly shaking as if an earthquake was about to erupt.
"That’s wonderful," Samantha agreed, laughing along with the man.
The way they laughed irritated Anastasia so much that she grabbed the bars of the cage and yelled, "Samantha!!"
Not only Samantha, but the rest of the people present turned their heads to look at Anastasia.
"You’re such a despicable person. You’re a monster!!"
Samantha rely tilted her head as she cocked up an eyebrow while listening to Anastasia vent.
"What are you going to do about it? Try to escape again? Trying to escape is a punishable cri with death, but I have a better punishnt for you, so you’d better keep your mouth shut before I make your punishnt worse."
Anastasia knew Samantha wasn’t bluffing. She would most certainly make her punishnt unbearable. She didn’t care if her punishnt was only going to increase, as long as she’d said what was on her mind.
"You can go ahead and do whatever you want to. I’m not scared of you!!" Anastasia glared at Samantha with so much intensity, the latter would have burned to death if that was possible. "You’re such a heartless woman. You’ll never find real happiness in your life, I promise you that!"
Samantha was now aggravated.
She walked towards Anastasia’s cage, grabbed the latter’s chin, and poured hatred into her eyes.
"I can see you still have the mouth to talk. You should be thinking of what I’m going to do to you instead of wasting your ti cursing because you know what? I don’t care about anything you say, so you can continue running your mouth however you want."
She shoved Anastasia away before walking back to where she was standing, waiting for the n to co out with the rest of the girls.
Anastasia didn’t know what to say anymore. She heard Michelle laughing at her, but she was too tired to face the latter and give her a piece of her mind.
Then, she saw Xander walking to stand next to Samantha. She just rembered she’d not seen him when she’d been dragged out.
He whispered sothing in her ears and she nodded in understanding.
A few more minutes passed, and so girls ca out alive with their clothes stained with blood that didn’t seem to be their own. So were dragged out by their hunter and added to the dead pile.
Julian ca out and beside him was Avery. Her clothes were so stained with blood that it seed she’d taken a blood bath.
When Avery and Anastasia shared eye contact, the girl revealed a faint smirk before tearing her eyes away from Anastasia as if she hadn’t seen her.
Julian’s gaze was on Ana, wondering why she’d landed in the cage.
"What happened?" He asked Samantha. He’d been trying to hunt her down, and now he found her in a human-sized cage.
"She tried to escape and we caught her before it was too late." Samantha’s reply was brief as if she didn’t want to spend ti talking to Julian any longer. Anastasia couldn’t help but wonder why.
She took a few steps away from Julian, only confirming Anastasia’s point.
Julian’s gaze landed once more on her, but he didn’t say anything. He rely shrugged, a look of mockery on his face before he took his seat.
"Out of 16 girls, only 7 survived this ga. I guess I’ll have to congratulate you all for surviving tonight. It only showed you can survive in your master’s ho no matter what ca your way."
The girls huffed, trying to catch their breath as one person supported the other. Their ragged clothes look even more torn as if they’ve gotten into a fight with a wild animal.
But Avery looked completely different. Her clothes didn’t look torn at all. If anything, they looked like they’d been dipped into a bowl filled with red dye.
Her appearance only made Anastasia wonder how many n she’d killed. That’s if she killed any n at all.
"As for the hunters, sadly, we’ll have to say goodbye to three hunters who turned out to be weak against these girls," Samantha finished.
Only the n clapped, especially Mr. Steven who was scanning the girls, looking for a potential one that probably wouldn’t commit any suicide before he had had his fun with the girl.
"As for the girls that were too weak to survive tonight, we’re going to have to bid them farewell now." Samantha gestured for the n to bring the fuel, while the hunters all gathered back to their seats earlier.
The n poured the fuel on the dead pile, Anastasia’s eyes widening in shock as she realized the next thing they were all going to do.
"This is what happens when you’re not strong enough to survive the night in a forest, especially when you’re the prey."
Samantha flicked a lighter, the fire coming on display.
Anastasia subconsciously shook her head, words unable to co out of her mouth.
"Don’t..." She managed to speak, but no one could hear her. And even if they did, nothing would change.
From the cage, Anastasia saw a body from the pile move. Hope filled her heart when she noticed it was Angelina. The girl wasn’t completely dead.
"Stop! Angelina is alive!!" She yelled, gaining Samantha’s attention.
The woman rely scoffed before releasing the lighter, watching as it tumbled onto the pile of bodies. In an instant, flas erupted, licking up the heap and casting an eerie glow that danced across her face.
