"This..." Bloodveil was momentarily speechless, stunned by what he just heard. "You're clearly trying to drag me down with you, aren't you?"
"Yep. What else did you expect?" Wraithshade didn't even try to hide it. As a proud member of the "Backstabbing Alliance," if they were in this mess together, there was no way he was going to let Bloodveil walk away clean.
If the Zombie Kings from Heartland came knocking, someone else was definitely going down with him.
Bloodveil scowled, clearly annoyed, and turned to Ethan for backup. "What do you think? Am I really supposed to go toe-to-toe with the Heartland Zombie Kings?"
"Not yet," Ethan said calmly. He never fought battles he wasn't sure he could win. And if it came down to a full-on war with the Heartland Zombie Kings, the odds weren't in their favor. The "Backstabbing Alliance" just didn't have the firepower. It'd be a bloodbath—and not the good kind.
