Eriva (Silent World #1)

Mama always said it’s easy to become comfortable and complacent, and it will most certainly lead to your death. This world that the monsters created has left no room for a comfortable, peaceful life.

There was definitely magic in the anti-venom I was injected with a week ago. I’ve seen more people than I can count die from injuries far less critical than mine.

I might have been convinced that the poison being the only actual “injury” might make the situation different, but the puncture wound itself is completely healed. I’m not sure it’s even going to scar.

It was as wide as a small child’s fist, and it was deep. When I pulled it from my leg, I saw it had been embedded at least two inches.
