<div style="text-align: justify;">Rationally, Gina possibly knew that she should have gone for a kill shot. Emotionally, though, she doubted her ability to do so. That beast there was still Daniel, after all. And Gina knew she would be unable to live with the idea that she had injured him seriously in the off chance that happened. The beast’s gaze made the young woman shudder a little. For an insane moment, Gina imagined that she would become the beast’s prey to make up for the lost one. <br/><br/>When the beast’s fur rose and it started moving in her direction, Gina swallowed hard. She bit her lower lip as the creature pulled out the arrow. That had to have hurt. As the arrowhead slipped from inside Daniel’s flesh, Gina watched the wound it had left behind. She nodded softly to herself. It seemed to have the right amount of silver to wound. Making a mental note that she would need more to kill, Gina sighed and tried to focus on the current situation.
