Reborn Fake Heiress Watch the Whole Family Burn novel Chapter 898

Exhaustion began to drag at her muscles. She sustained several more brutal cuts across her arms and legs, but her fingers remained locked in a death grip around the hilt of the dagger.

It was her only lifeline. If she dropped it, she was dead.

A heavy boot caught her in the stomach, sending her crashing hard against the ground.

Her entire body pulsed with agonizing pain. She paused for a fraction of a second to catch her breath, then forced herself back to her feet.

She lunged back into the fight, systematically cutting down the remaining men.

Before long, the courtyard was littered with bodies. Some were groaning in pools of blood, while others were already dead.

Elena stood among them, completely drained, her body covered in bleeding wounds.

"Does this mean I pass? Let me see Michelle, or I swear to God I will kill you," Elena demanded, her voice rasping but firm.

She stood tall against the wind, blood dripping from her fingertips, looking every bit the legendary warrior she was.

"Impressive. Truly," Sirius clapped slowly. "It's been a while, but your skills are sharper than ever. Michelle is inside. Go on in."

Elena knew there was no walking away from this today. Sirius was never going to let her leave alive. She was already severely wounded and running on empty.

Her plan was simple: trade herself so Michelle could walk free. Even if she died here, Michelle had to survive.

Elena pushed open the heavy wooden doors and saw Michelle tied to a chair in the center of the room, a gag stuffed in her mouth.

"Michelle!"

Elena rushed forward, quickly slicing through the thick ropes binding Michelle's wrists and ankles.

As soon as the ropes fell away, Michelle threw her arms around Elena in a tight embrace.

"Michelle, I'm so sorry it took me so long. Don't worry, no matter what happens today, I'm going to get you out of here safely..."
