Chapter 42 

You could smell the aroma from the food outside. We had been living on small portions for over the last week. The smell was nearly intoxicating as we followed it inside. We made our way to the kitchen and poked our heads inside. Immediately everyone stopped and bowed to us. 

“Please do not stop on our account.” I told them and they got back to cooking. “We were just here to tell you how wonderful everything was smelling and to grab a small snack.” I smiled and you could see it put them in better spirits. 

I walked to the fridge and took two yogurts out alonh wigh two waters. I looked around and saw one of the cooks open a drawer for the silverware. I walked over took two spoons and slipped out with Everest. We ate it and for me the flavors of strawberry and banana danced on my tongue. “Mmm. So good.” | moaned out. 

Everest nodded as he inhaled his. 

| savored mine as he was already finished. I laughed between bites. “Did you even taste it?” I teased. 

“Yup it was blueberry.” He frowned. “I think.” He looked at the writing on the yogurt cup and nodded speaking more confidently this time, “Yep, blueberry.” 

“Uh-huh. You inhaled it. Want some of mine?” I held a bite of my yogurt in front of his face. He took his mouth and covered the end of the spoon. 

When he released the spoon he nodded “Yep that’s pretty good too. Better than that stupid granola we’ve been surviving on.” 

I laughed and nodded in agreement. When we finished we threw our trash away and put our spoons in the sink. We walked the halls together searching for Camden and Jeremy. We soon found them in the library sitting at a table with a large map. 

“Enjoy yalls visit?” Camden looked up at us as well as Jeremy. “We did, thank you for having your pack take good care if him.” I told him. “So, how was he then? How was his spirit? I couldn’t imagine.” Jeremy asked. 

Everest spoke this time “He was in good spirits, a little worried about if his wolf would abandon him or not. But, I told him to not worry.” We strolled over to the table and looked at the map that was laid out. 

It was a very detailed map of Sir Brennons pack. He had a lot of land to cover and we were trying to figure out the best route. 

“If only we could sneak by the territory boundaries.” Jeremy said, his attention back on the map. 

Everest leaned over and he smirked as he looked down at it. “I may just have a fix to that. They’re on their way to the Kingdom as we speak.” 

“Who?” Camden asked. 

“Yes cousin, who do you have that could make us nearly invisible?” Jeremy c****d his head to the side as he looked between us both. I knew he was talking about Miranda, but I also knew he wanted to keep that secret hidden. 

“I just might, might have it covered. I will know more when we get to the Kingdom.” He told them both. 

“You keep your secrets then. I see you there King Everest.” Jeremy laughed. 

“Well, men, if we can stay undetectable I suggest that we go in here.” Camden moved and pointed to the Northern most point on the map. 

“Where is this exactly?” Jeremy asked. I stepped closer to get a better look for myself. 

“This,” He paused as he pointed to an area “This is our way in. It is a river valley between two large hills or mountains. Whatever you want to call them they’re huge. It would probably be our safest bet to entering, seeing how his town is here.” His hand moved way across the map towards the coast and I frowned. 

“That has got to be a good two day run.” Everest said. “It is about three.” Camden said. “S**t. That’s a lot of land to cover.” Jeremy said. “Most is unuseable.” Everest said. 

I studied the map closely as they talked more details about the plan. I wanted to get the best layout of the land. I felt them watching me and I looked up. They were curious, could tell. “I am just looking at how this river wraps its way around. It ends up dumping into the sea.” I pointed out. 

“Yes it does.” Jeremy moved to looking over my shoulder. Camden looked at the opposite side as Everest sent a warning glare at Jeremy who moved away. I rolled my eyes at them.

Everests portions were larger and he finished his and ate the rest of mine when I offered it to him. We sat and talked and enjoyed our night even with the threat of danger lurking close.
