Chapter 135 The Turning Tides

• Lena’s POV
• As I watch Daniel scurry to compile our supplies, my heart still races. The sense of anxiety that hangs in the air and thickens with every second is not going away. Half-expecting Adam's soldiers to show up at any moment, I sweep the treeline behind me. "Hrush!" They follow directly behind me! I yell, panic coloring my voice.
• Once Daniel understands the seriousness of the matter, his attitude changes from uncertainty to urgency. Everyone now! Grab what you can, he says, his voice steady yet forceful.
