Erica frowned, trying to recall the path they had taken. "I think it was... this way?" She pointed toward a narrow trail that seemed familiar.They started walking, but after a few minutes, Erica stopped, her confidence wavering. "I'm not sure this is the right way.""What are you being serious about, we have been walking through this path for some minutes." Evelyn's eyes shot wide open."That's even if it's not up to an hour." She remarked."Oh, why I'm sorry." Erica snapped "But the last time I remembered I was not the only one who took the route that led is here.""Since you are so smart and you want to ruin your mouth. How about you tell us where to go next.""Don't even try to put this on me," Evelyn warned she said, averting Erica's gaze because she was also guilty."Don't try to put this on me," Evelyn warned, averting Erica's gaze because she felt equally guilty for not paying attention. "I'm not putting this on you. I'm just saying we need to work together to figure this ou

Erica and Evelyn trudged through the dense forest, their footsteps growing heavier with each passing hour. "When are we going to stop I'm already so fucking tired," Evelyn muttered as she held me to one of the trees for support."We have to keep moving before it goes dark," Erica said with a serious tone."If you are okay spending the night in the forest then it is fine by me," Erica remarked rolling her eyes."Not," Evelyn said quickly pushing herself away from the tree and filling Erica closely.The sun hung low in the sky, casting long shadows that made the forest seem even more unfamiliar."I swear we've passed that tree before," Erica said, pointing to a large oak with a distinctive knot in its trunk."You are probably seeing things because you are tired and have been walking for hours," Erica said bluffing Evelyn off."No, it's not that," Evelyn said looking closely at the tree."I think it's the same one I was leaning upon a few hours ago."Evelyn sighed in frustration. "Are y

Evelyn's heart was pounding because she felt something was typically off about the woman but she had to remain silent beside Erica and didn't seem too bothered.She blinked back at her confusion.She was probably too worked up because they had been in the woods eating only fruit and no warm bath.Erica didn't waste time explaining their situation, from getting lost in the forest to their night in the tent.Evelyn wanted to shun her from speaking too much but Erica was already engrossed in her discussion with the Martha."So this place you live in, there are people there right?" Martha asked."Yes they are but we just need to find our way back to them," Erica said.Martha listened attentively, nodding as she spoke. "Sounds like you've had quite the adventure. You're lucky you found this place. The forest can be unforgiving, especially for those unfamiliar with its paths.""Then how come you are still here " Evelyn asked, not even trying to hide her suspicion.Erica nudged at her arm b

"But General what about the plan we were to execute concerning the South?" John asked.Sullivan who was already almost at the door paused with his mind racing with what decision he was going to take. The reason for coming here wasn't just to help people but also to establish his stronghold in the south and dismantle the five great families' control in this region. No matter how he painted it everything was still bored down to revenge. He was stuck at the junction between his responsibilities and his wife. "Whatever plans we made can wait," He said with a frown. He didn't have to weigh his options before bye knew his wife needed him and he had to be there for her. "Are you sure because if we leave now the five great families will be heavily guarded and will want to fortify their stronghold," John advised. "So what will you have me do." Sullivan roared, plunging his fist to the wall. John immediately regretted his decision to say anything in the first place when he saw the gener

"Let her go!" Erica screamed."Please let her go!" Her shoulders tremble as her voice shutters with fear.Martha grinned as she clicked her tongue.She took in Evelyn's battered state was was satisfied.She glances at the blood sipping from the wound and she uses her fingertips to brush against the wound.She chuckled then she used the blood on her hands and licked it with joy."You girls taste so good, my children are going to like it."Martha released the knife from Evelyn's shoulder and smiled."Don't worry I'm not going to kill you just yet because I need to save all this meat for rainy days.""You want meat? Why don't you try your mine instead." Erica scoffed."I like your spirit." Martha squeaks like a little girl who just tasted candy."I'm so going to enjoy this," Martha said then she started walking towards Erica who started moving backwards.Her petty attempt at an escape was lousy and it excited Martha even further."No!" Evelyn muttered, her heart racing fastIt was Fuele
