An ancient oak’s spindly tree branch snagged against Clara
Ander’s fine cloak, nearly choking off her air supply and her
hasty retreat. Her preference for keeping the former alive and
well was only mildly contingent on the latter succeeding.
If she failed, well . . . it wasn’t something she was willing to
contemplate.
She’d learned long ago that Hell wasn’t simply some pit in the ground
reserved for those with bad behavior and dark intentions. For Clara, it was a
highly personalized and promised experience, complete with custommeasured cells and unbreakable chains, and one that was tipping closer to
her defenses with each passing moon.
The cloak pulled harder against her windpipe, and pain lanced across a
throat already too tight and dry from her exertions. Before the forest’s
darkened terrain swallowed her entirely, she managed to kick her leg out
and steady herself against a moss-slicken log.
Maybe she did need a moment of rest. Just one moment, though. A
slight nod of relief over not having been taken out before she’d had her first
chance at freedom, and by a damned tree at that. Outside of the occasional
controlled hunts her father, the king, permitted her to entertain, her wolf’s
reflexes had received little use as of late. Thank the Moon Mother they’d
not failed her now. She’d take whatever they could offer.
Though the moon was newly high overhead, its crescent sliver was
hardly enough to illuminate the slim footpaths winding across the forest
floor. Clara had heard tales of passages leading away from the stronghold,
ones that led to the human lands, but how the hell did she know she’d taken
the right one? Surely, the merchant she’d purchased her hiking boots from
hadn’t lied to her, had she?
She isn’t in my father’s employ, not directly. Did I misjudge the old
female’s loyalty?
No, best not to think that way. Clara had to be on the right path,
especially after the kind of money she’d been forced to pony up. In that line
of work, a trade so reliant on favorable word of mouth, giving out poor
information was bad for business.
Yes, the female had sent Clara in the right direction.
Shoring up her shaky beliefs, she clasped her cloak tighter around her
shoulders and breathed in the forest around her. The slow speed at which
she inhaled grated at her wolf.
Patience had never been a strong suit for her
lycan side, and that was a danger Clara could not afford. Yes, her wolf’s
sense of smell was infinitely stronger, as well as the beast’s eyesight, but
with Clara’s luck, her wolf would veer her off in the direction of whatever
late-spring game hadn’t managed to hole itself up in its den this far into
nightfall, and then where would she be?
Not in the direction of the human lands and definitely not in the more
urgent direction away from the stronghold.
It was a risk she couldn’t take, and the inward growls that answered
made her wolf’s stance perfectly known.
