I promise.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, their eyes met — fear against determination — and it was enough to calm Karen’s sobbing, even if just barely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then came another sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door shuddered. Both women froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud. Thud. Thud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something — or someone — was pounding on it from the other side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eliza grabbed the nearest object she could find — a metal lamp — and motioned for Karen to stay back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pounding grew louder, harder, until the doorframe began to crack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stay behind me!\" Eliza hissed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen pressed herself against the wall, heart hammering so hard it hurt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could see the shadow under the door — a pair of feet shuffling, dragging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A low, animal growl filled the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, suddenly—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door shuddered violently, nearly bursting open as splinters of wood flew through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen screamed, stumbling backward, her heart slamming against her ribs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pounding outside grew louder — something heavy was slamming against the door again and again, snarling and scraping like an animal possessed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eliza’s eyes widened in terror before a flash of instinct took over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew that the metal lamp she held would be ineffective against that thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Move the cabinet! Block the door—quick, help me!\" she hissed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They both lunged into motion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adrenaline surged through their veins as they grabbed anything they could — chairs, the nightstand, even the small dresser near the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their hands slipped on the polished wood, but they didn’t stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The humanoid creature outside roared, slamming one last time before the barricade finally held.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The impact rattled the cabinet, but the door didn’t give.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of snarling lingered for a few tense seconds... then faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavy footsteps shuffled away, dragging slowly down the hall until silence returned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eliza fell against the wall, panting, her chest heaving with exhaustion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh my God... it’s gone,\" she whispered, voice trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen nodded shakily, tears spilling from her eyes. \"We... we actually survived that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without thinking, the two clung to each other in desperate relief, their bodies trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room still smelled of fear — sweat, dust, and faint traces of blood from the hallway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only then, in the quiet aftermath, that Karen’s mind began to clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And like a spark in the dark, she suddenly remembered something — Ross.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ross had known.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d said something earlier that didn’t make sense at the time — about being safe, about preparing for what was coming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The memory hit her like ice water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eliza,\" Karen said breathlessly, pulling away. \"Get me Ross’s number. Now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eliza blinked at her, confused. \"What? Karen, what are you—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just give it to me!\" Karen snapped, fumbling for her phone. \"Please.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something in Karen’s tone made Eliza comply without another word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She searched through her contacts with shaking fingers and began dictating the number.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen entered it quickly and pressed the call button.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The line rang once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Twice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then it connected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ross...\" Karen gasped, barely able to form the words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other end, his voice came smooth, calm — almost too calm for the chaos that surrounded them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, hello Karen,\" he said, his tone laced with faint amusement. \"I knew you’d call.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karen’s lips parted, but no sound came out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So,\" Ross continued, his voice dropping to a soft, knowing murmur, \"let’s speak our terms.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1061,"2026-06-09T06:19:05.005Z",1,"novelbin.me","6ae170b7ac36fb6a1abf70e08cdba20bdcea049c687180f23c65466fa587b3bf","evil-mc-s-ntr-harem-chapter-1012","evil-mc-s-ntr-harem-chapter-1010",1212,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fevil-mc-s-ntr-harem-cover.jpg"]
