Chapter 65 A Magical Loophole

• Rainer
• An arrow flies through the air and embeds itself in the wall beside me, narrowly missing me by a few inches. It’s chest level, so I know she was aiming for my heart. I stare at the arrow and then back at her in horror. She could have killed me.
• Her blue eyes are wide in shock too as if she can’t believe what she almost did, but when I move from the doorway, her shock morphs into panic as she scrambles to reload the crossbow. In the small cabin, I’m able to reach her in five steps. I yank the crossbow from her. She tries to keep her hold on it, but I’m much stronger.
