"'Do what he wants, and you might survive,' a harsh voice said into the boy's ear before he felt a sharp blow to the kidneys. He fell forward onto the concrete, his arms splayed out in front of him.

'So this is the one who tried to get away?' another voice asked from the shadows. It was a deeper, older, more guttural voice. Almost like a growl." -The Lost Saint by Bree Despain

Sounds really good! Though the beating, not so much, but such an excellent way to start book 2 in the series! Love it! What about you guys? Happy reading!
