Chapter 112 : A Losing Battle

*Xander*

Adrian was pacing along the railing of the auxiliary ship taking us back to Breles. It had been a month since I’d left Lena behind in Winter Forest, and other than a letter I’d written and mailed to Winter Forest before I’d left for the portal back to my realm, I hadn’t spoken to her since.

The ship was as full as possible with warriors from my territory, with more on the way. Adrian and I had gathered the entire force of my warriors, ten thousand strong. A portion of that would be guarding the portal to our realm from both sides if worse came to worst and the pack lands lost their hold on their territories. The rest had been ordered to stay back to guard their own people. As much as I wanted to help in this realm, I couldn’t risk letting anything happen to my own people which I was sworn to protect.

Costas had told me his estimation of the number of warriors King Nikolas had at his disposal.

It was a lot more than ten thousand.
