Once the sun had come up, even in the slightest, the second the forest had a bit of light, the group began packing up their things.
The air was cool, fresh as always, with not a single scent of burnt meat or ashes in sight. Everything was gone, but no one needed to ask, because it wasn't a new thing.
Asher stood by a tree, watching as his soldiers helped around, while Nova stayed above, doing a quick scan of the area to ensure they weren't being followed.
His fists were tight around his phone, forcing himself not to break it as a result of what he had just discovered.
Zain, on the other hand, sauntered off without telling anyone. Although Asher could easily locate him or summon him back, it was a very stupid thing to do, and everyone knew that.
Sinnett, who had been devastated about the news from last night, sat beside Asher, cross-legged, while his locs danced around restlessly.
Worse, they hadn't gotten good food to eat, especially when there was nothing in sight.
