Chapter 99
They all cross the narrow creek and Niya immediately remembers the first night she spent here with Chase. That followed many other nights but the first one is the most memorable one. When they enter the forest line, darkness falls over their world as the sun also sets completely revealing the moon on the sky.
“We have to be on our guard now.” Crystella says “We have left the protection barrier.”
They don’t walk for long before they reach a small space where the trees seem to have purposefully cut. The cat disappears behind a huge tree bark across the small clear space and Niya feels a tug in her chest pulling her towards the tree. Selene! She whispers in her head and calls for her repeatedly. It worked last time, it has to work this time too.
Selene appears before them almost floating above the ground with her hood down. By the look on Crystella and Chase’s face, Niya knows that they can also see her.
