Avalynn POV
I stood by Miranda's side, protecting her from everything that came her way. She had the bastard right where we needed him. He was frozen, unable to move and when I heard her say the word "Batokne" I watched as Dexter was brought to his knees in pain. I couldn't help but to enjoy the pain that radiated from him. I slipped into his mind at that moment to relish the pain he was feeling. It was amazing to feel the pain he was feeling, to see how afraid he was, to know how much he was freaking out because his men were failing him. It felt like I was rallying his pain into my own strength. Just as I released his thoughts, another was coming at Miranda and me. I rolled him away and snapped his neck and watched his body fall to the ground and go limp.
My attention was diverted back
