Chapter 125: Impossible

*Jared*

I led my scouting team straight to the capital. The reports we’d been getting about a rogue army and all the destruction were entirely disturbing.

Not only that, but the refugee numbers were growing. All the smaller packs in the area couldn’t sustain the entire population from the capital. There were too many people.

We set up camp a couple of days outside my village.

“I’m not liking how the skies look,” Archer reported to me when we met up by the campfire.

“We can’t stop, not with everything we’ve heard about the rogue army.”

“I know. But it might slow us down.”

“We can worry about that tomorrow,” I told him.

“Goodnight, then.”

I tossed and turned all night, thinking of Eliza and how she was handling the rogues all on her own. She was so strong and tenacious, always wanting to help others. If it hadn’t been for her, I would have given up a long time ago.

The refugees didn’t know how lucky they were to have her on their side.

BOOM!
