Chapter 104

• Chapter 104: An unlikely alliance
• Hayley's POV
• Aiden and I climbed a short, forested hill, the deep greens of coniferous trees surrounding us with silver grays in their high-limbed needles as they filtered the first shafts of morning light into dappled shadows on the ground. We trod just hours past, so near our home lines. What had happened the night before was still fresh in their minds, and they needed to keep moving if there was any hope of completing this task.
