Spoiled By My Nine Beast Husbands (Emma Tibarn) novel Chapter 337

**When She Opened the Door to the Life She Was Afraid to Live by Nora Vale Kingsley**
**Chapter 337: Into the Great Rift**

Why had she never encountered this place before? The thought nagged at Emma, a persistent whisper in the back of her mind.

Silas, sensing her urgency, quickly elaborated, “It takes about two hours to reach the Great Rift Range from here.” His voice was steady, but the gravity of his words hung heavily in the air.

The moment Emma heard that it was merely two hours away, determination surged within her. “Let’s go right now,” she declared, her voice resolute.

Every heartbeat felt like a ticking clock, reminding her that with each passing second, Malrik’s life dangled by a fragile thread, and she couldn’t bear the thought of wasting any more time.

Noticing the intensity in her gaze, Silas grasped her hand firmly, his expression turning serious. “Emy, the Great Rift Range is also known as the Central Planet Exclusion Zone. It’s teeming with high-tier beasts, and there are enormous fissures that plunge directly into the abyss.”

His words painted a grim picture, and Emma felt a shiver run down her spine. “Countless high-tier therians have perished there, even those ranked 11. We can’t just rush in without preparation. Please, give me ten minutes to get everything ready, and then we’ll leave immediately, all right?”

Emma hadn’t fully grasped the true danger of the place until now. Her instincts screamed at her to flee, to burst out the door and race toward the unknown. But she couldn’t allow her friends to risk their lives unprepared. She took a deep breath, nodding firmly. “All right. We’ll follow your lead.”

Earlier that very morning, Lucien and Edric had gone out on a mission, so Silas quickly sent messages to both of them through his lightcore, his fingers flying over the device. “We need to gather the squad and supplies,” he instructed Marcus, his voice clipped with urgency. “Corvin, prepare your mech and a warship. We have no time to waste.”

When Kieran arrived, confusion flickered across his features as he heard their destination. “The Great Rift Range? What’s that supposed to be?”

Having spent his entire life within the confines of Aquadome, he was unfamiliar with the name and its implications.

Corvin stepped in to clarify, “The Great Rift Range is an exclusion zone on the Central Planet. The terrain is incredibly treacherous, and even Rank 11 therians have met their end there. The government has sealed it off with a super defense field. Very few people even know it exists.”

Kieran’s eyes widened as the realization dawned on him—it was a deathtrap, a place where survival was a mere flicker of hope.

Drake, who had been silently observing Emma, finally spoke up. “I’ll keep you safe,” he promised, his tone serious and unwavering.

Marcus shot him a sharp glare. “Cut the act. I don’t need you to protect my huntress,” he snapped before turning his attention back to Emma. “Ms. Tibarn, I’ve been to the Great Rift Range before. Don’t worry—I’ll keep you safe.”

In mere minutes, Silas had completed his preparations. He led Emma and the others out first, urgency propelling them forward, while Lucien and Edric, who were hurrying back, were instructed to gather their squad and supplies to follow shortly.
