LOGINI'm introducing a new character guys! The first part of the story is coming to an end now so it's high time we see the other side and what our antagonists are doing. Thank you for reading this far.
As soon as I got on my horse, Morning wrapped her arms around meContact with her always gave me a certain sensation that was hard to describe. But it was very pleasant. Especially in moments like this. I enjoyed it a lot.That was why I told her that she didn’t have to hold me yet. When I didn’t get any reply I knew that she simply wanted to hold me of her own volition.That brought a smile to my lips.Morning had been keeping things from me lately, and she had also been pulling away from me. I already began to fear the worst, but with this it seemed like everything would be okay. Maybe I made the right choice by deciding to trust Morning with her secret. If she wasn’t going to tell me, then I believed that she would be able to handle it ourselves.We began riding. Everyone was able to keep up easily. Carter and even surprisingly Oisin on his own horse. Rowena rode Orlaith while Kerrigan flew above us in the skies.We managed to cover so much more distance at our new pace. The speed
I was in something of a daze while Phoenix carried me away to see the horses.Before I knew it, he instructed me to ride one.The novelty of the event was able to distract me for some time.Horse riding turned out to be a lot harder than I even expected it to be. The beasts were a lot feistier than they needed to be. I was even a little scared that it would attack me at some point.After a few attempts to control the direction, I eventually fell off the horse.That was when Phoenix and I laughed together. It was genuine laughter from me and it felt so good to share a moment like that with Phoenix. When did things turn away from moments like that?Phoenix found a way to handle all three horses by himself. I got to sit behind him.He advised that I wrap my arms around him to stay steady. After riding a horse myself, I knew exactly what he was talking about. I wrapped my arms around him. His body felt so warm. I realized just how much I missed touching him like this. I let go of myself
“Sorry, I don’t have any horses for sale. Please leave my stables.”I raised an eyebrow at the horse monger’s words.It was clear that he had horses for sale. In fact, I caught a snippet of conversation between him and the people who had run away. He was discussing a sale earlier.It was all a roundabout way to get us to leave.“Fine. But you will change your mind in a moment.” I told him.“Sorry again, but I won’t be changing any-.”The horse monger stopped mid sentence as I brought our my bag of coins. The coins shook and clinked with their weight, drawing his eyes. Although they were behind a bag, he could tell just how much it may be.“I want three horses. Good breeds that can ride hard for days.” I told him.The horse monger nodded. Even though he didn’t like us, money spoke volumes. I had to thank Dekle for leaving me some money at least.“I have three horses I know you’ll like. Sturdy, for the right price, they will be yours.”The horse monger was definitely very enthusiastic a
I walked with Phoenix into the stables. As soon as we entered, a few people who had been inside hurriedly went outside through the door. They were so rushed that one of them even brushed past me, I didn’t move but he didn’t apologize and he simply walked away.“You aren’t from around here.” A middle aged man with a full beard walked out from behind a table counter. He had a thick cloth that he used to clean his hands, but he looked disheveled.“No, but I want horses and I have money.” Phoenix said immediately.“Sorry, I don’t have any horses for sale. Please leave my stables.” The man said immediately.I was shocked at how quickly he dismissed us. But I gritted my teeth and made a very tight fist.I knew it was all my fault of course. Phoenix already told me how I had been screaming just a few moments ago. That was why people were avoiding us now.I never expected my wolf to actually be able to do anything. I thought I had her figured out and so I called her bluff.But I regretted my
I glanced at Morning multiple times during our short journey to get horses. After I tried talking to her the first time, she went quiet again.I wondered how long she would keep avoiding me.I knew that she lied to me when I asked her if anything was wrong. But I came to terms with that. I wasn’t perfect and as long as it wasn’t something that was immediately endangering her life, then the last thing I wanted to do was to force her to tell me what the problem was.But I noticed that she had a furrowed expression on her face through out the walk as if she was thinking deeply. And her lips would part slightly from time to time as if she was about to say something but she never said any words or even looked at me even.I felt exasperated. What exactly was going on with her that she didn’t want to tell? Stopping myself from trying to get her to tell me was taking a massive amount of will power. But I kept reminding myself that I didn’t want to force Morning to do anything in our relations
Looking at the scene in front of us after Phoenix’s announcement, one would have expected to see a grand city in front of us, rather all that was there was more forest. “The town is just after a few more trees. We aren’t walking in with a giant bear.” Phoenix elaborated.It sounded like we would do things similar to how we did it last time.“Things will be different this time around.” Phoenix explained. “We are only here for some horses then we go straight ahead to the capital. There is no need to directly pass through this town so most us would be staying behind.”That came as a slight surprise to me.“I only need one other person to follow me. We would be getting three horses. We have some money but it isn’t unlimited.” Phoenix explained.“Three horses? But there’s five of us.” Carter pointed out.“Should you really be encouraging us to spend more money when you want payment?” Rowena asked with amusement in her voice. “Besides I have Orlaith so I don’t need a horse.”“The rest of u
