Chapter 170 Darkness Ans Hidden Truths

• Caleb from his point of view
• Samantha's stare on me felt heavy when we gathered around the fire that evening, each of us healing hidden as well as obvious wounds. Long, dancing shadows stretched across the camp as the fires cracked in the silence. Rick had slipped through our hands once more, leaving us shattered in more ways than one. It had been a difficult fight.
• Samantha was silent tonight—something she hardly does. I understood she felt the loss as much as it did for me. But her sitting, lost in contemplation, fixed on the fire... I sensed another thing as well.
