Exo On The Snow Novels & Stories

EMMA I woke up to find Adrian's side of the bed already empty, which was a big relief. Downstairs, Helen was waiting in the foyer with a clipboard and three people standing behind her. "Ms. Ashford, good morning. I wanted to introduce the additional staff who'll be assisting with the holiday preparations and your business needs," Helen said, gesturing to the woman on her left. "This is Sophia Reyes, she'll be coordinating the company's Christmas gala here at the estate."

“Do you think she should go to school today? I mean with everything that just happened.” “Bethany would want to get this done and over with, she’d definitely not agree.” He, Allan, hummed in agreement before sighing and looking out the window. Charon, I think I liked that name better. By evening Allan pulled up in front of an enormous white gate, it was beautiful and had different designs on it. On our way here Caleb had pulled over for Allan to take over because 'he was dead tired'. A tall dark man came out to ask a few questions before waving his hands in the air.

There was only the low hum of the engine, the swaying motion of the cab, and the heavy, solid presence of Jaxson sitting just a few feet away. The snowcat finally crested a steep rise, slowing its pace as it turned down a narrow, unplowed spur that vanished into a dense cluster of towering spruce trees. A few moments later, the vehicle ground to a halt, its engine dying with a deep, shuddering sigh that left the wilderness wrapped in an absolute, profound silence. "We're here," Jaxson said.

He looked away and just focused on walking. We were busy walking until we heard animal cries, and that is when we saw a group of animals running down the mountain. I was about to turn around but I felt a shake on the ground. This isn't good. I grabbed Zale and started running towards the foot of the mountain, I stopped, looked at him, and asked, "Can you fly?" He nodded and I did the same and jumped on the tree leaving him on the ground. "Do you want to die or what? Jump and summon your wings!" I ordered him, he doesn't know what was going on. Since he lives far away from the mountains, of course, he wouldn't know what to do when there is a landslide bound to happen.

At that moment it started to snow, Rose’s favorite season. It was the first snow. Her favorite day of the year. Rosalie had always loved the snow, but her love for the season grew because the snow had led her to meet Hakeem. They would’ve been in their little cottage, celebrating their first baby together. The snow would’ve been the icing on the cake as they enjoyed each other's company. When Hakeem finally looked at her with trembling lips, unable to speak, her heart broke all over again. But, she knew she’d take the bullet all over again.

Chapter 66 When they reached their destination, Aria had already calmed down. She felt her surroundings and turned to Damian, “Why do I feel like we are in the mountains?” Damian looked at her and smiled without saying anything. He parked the car and asked Aria to come out, “You will know where we are once you come out of the car. Come on.” Aria excitedly undid her seat belt and got out of the car. The moment her feet touched the ground, she was stunned. She felt as if she was standing on a padded field, and looking around, she could see nothing but trees.

On the contrary, it was because that she had not exercised for too long and was too weak to keep up with the two of them. Although Noah was from a rich family, he had climbed a lot of mountains and was a fan of sports. Needless to say, Zoe loved ski, swimming and other sports, so she was naturally skilled. In comparison, Cora was bound to stay at home all day long to participate activities, so she felt exhausted. It was not that she was not considerate. After all, she couldn't ruin everyone's mood to go out in such a situation. Cora raised her head and looked into the distance. There seemed to be a temple or something like that. It was a rare place for people to build temples.

On Christmas Eve, my bestie, Yara Charlton, came to me, her cheeks rosy with a mix of excitement and nerves: "Nicole... Can you do me a solid and come over on Christmas Eve? I need a wingwoman to help me sneak some time with Keith." "Huh?" I stared at Yara, puzzled. Blushing deeper, she nibbled on her lip and spilled the beans, saying, "I'm scared my dad will catch on to Keith and me. If you're there, you can help distract him..." Her voice trailed off, her eyes dancing with mischief. "I haven't had a chance to be close with Keith in forever... You need to help me!" I could not say no to Yara, so I agreed, albeit with a bit of trepidation.

At that moment, the last of my feelings for him finally faded away. I picked up the glass of red wine beside me and, without hesitation, threw it at the painting titled ‘Days in the Mountains.’ The crimson liquid streamed down the canvas, destroying the cozy wooden cabin, the innocent girl, and the carefully constructed lie he had built. “Lexie! What are you doing?” Ethan’s eyes went bloodshot as he lunged forward, trying to shove me. Peter reacted instantly, pulling me behind him and blocking Ethan’s path. “Mr. Ethan, are you really going to hit a woman in front of everyone?”

“We have run into some problems in the family, Luna. I need to leave now. “You can catch a ride to get a gift. Here’s a card with unlimited funds. Spend it however you like.” Dominick opened the car door and gestured for me to exit. I stepped out of the vehicle with a grin and watched as the car sped away. The driver was right about the cold. I was kicked out of the vehicle before getting the chance to grab a coat. The mall was two miles away, and the snow was already up to my shins. Since it was impossible to hail a cab in this weather, I trekked my way to the mall. Just steps away from my destination, I dropped limp into the snow.
