“You are a threat. Just not to them—yet.” Eolan gave him a flat look. “Helpful.” Before Arwyn could answer, the heir appeared in the stable doorway, her breath clouding in the cold air. “Eolan. Ride with me.” They took the west trail out of the stronghold, hooves crunching in the snow. The wind carried the scent of pine and smoke from the valley below. When they crested a low ridge, the view opened—the enemy camp stretched across the white plain like a stain, banners snapping in the wind.

The trail was tolerable, but she had trouble adjusting to the extreme weather. Although the sun was up in the clear sky, the temperature was icy. Triana was thankful for her favorite sunblock to protect her skin. As they continued their trek, the altitude went higher. Everyone walked in the mountainous part. “This looks like a high alpine desert,” Austin said as his eyes traveled around. Triana had noticed that her nose was bleeding. She thought it was normal, even though she had taken her medicine earlier. She didn’t pay much attention to it. They rested well after almost six hours of trek.

The truth, whatever his level of involvement, was coming out of him one way or another. I drove us down Montana Creek Road, the nearest outlet into the wilderness. To illustrate how appropriate that word, ‘wilderness’, when Felicia, Kristin, and I first moved to Juneau, a repairman I was quizzing about the local hiking opportunities gave me this advice about Montana Creek: “I wouldn’t go back there without bear mace.” I doubted bears would concern my jock passenger too much, but the seclusion was a different matter. To his credit, he did muster up the courage about halfway along the three-mile stretch of weather-battered road to ask where I was taking him. It might as well have been a rhetor

“Even if you wander off one of the trails, you can tell where the borders are by natural markers, like the dropoff beyond this treeline or the stream on the opposite end of the territory.” She nods, eyes scanning the treeline. “Got it.” She reaches for the key again, clearly eager to continue on, so I pull up my bandana and fire up the engine of my ATV, pulling ahead. Serena follows suit, tailing me as I continue on down the trail. If she wants something more difficult, then I have another trail in mind that’s sure to excite her.

Chanelle leaned closer to me. "Don't fall for his antics, Michelle." I bit my lip. "I know. Don't worry." For the next thirty minutes, silence once again filled the vehicle as the landscape gradually changed around us. Towering pine trees blanketed in snow stretched across the horizon. Frost-covered branches glittered beneath the pale winter sun, while an open field spread before us like a sheet of untouched white silk. At its center rested a small lake, its surface frozen solid beneath a layer of ice that shimmered like glass.

EDAL The journey back down the western ridge took three full days. The mountain trails were narrow, slick with gray shale and packed ice, forcing us to lead the mules by their headstalls at a crawl. Dr. Helena walked in the center of our formation, surrounded by Rylan’s massive frame in the front and Ezra’s sharp ears tracking the perimeter from behind. She did not complain about the freezing wind or the rough terrain, but her eyes never stopped moving, cataloging every guard post and fallback line we passed on our approach.

A/N: Hello, Piggy Readers, this is the sequel of Trist where his friend Samuel dies. ~*~ THE van that Kailyn Montez was riding in was traveling down a secluded road into the woods. The road was wide and flat with not many vehicles passing by, only their vans. They left early in the morning so they had been on the trip for more than seven hours and they were only half an hour close to their destination. Half an hour passed and it was exactly 7:23 in the morning when they arrived at the villa.

The trail snaked around the top of a mountain with a sheer drop to the right. She believes they were somewhere in the far end of this land, and there should have been an endless wasteland view, but the rain and the fading light had obliterated it. A few trees curled out of the party of the hill with leaves as hard as thorns. Behind her, below her, ahead of her, it was all the same. Suddenly, she glimpsed an eagle on the tree, into the distance like it was contemplating something reasonably dark, if it wasn't just a bird in the early fall sunshine, its feathers were as shiny yet It looks at her intently, giving her goosebumps. Warning her for something.

MIA} I ran back to my room and locked the door, I took in big gulps out of my mini dispenser bottle but I was still thirsty. “argh” I screamed out loud, I walked to my floor-length mirror and took in my appearance, I looked so pale that I’m sure I’ll give snow white a run for her money. looking through the window I was enchanted by the forest and within a second I was already standing in the middle of the forest looking for an unlucky animal to prey on and sink my blood-loving fangs into its neck.

The morning trail was more beautiful than a place technically standing in the shadow of Casa de Sanctis had any right to be. The pines rose tall, dark and wet. The damp ground held on to the smell of last night’s rain. Small ferns opened beside the path like green hands. Through the trees, the hills appeared in layers, blue-gray in the distance, brushed by a thin fog that moved slowly. I lifted my phone and took a picture. One frame: pines, fog, the river beginning to show below. Another frame: Max running too close to the edge of the trail before Karl caught him by the collar of his life vest without even needing to look.
