#Chapter 116: That Damned Woman

Nicholas The forest was quiet as I padded through the trees in wolf form. My breath came out in white puffs, the cold air biting at my nose. How could she be so stupid? She knew it was a bad idea, knew it could lead the guild straight to Grace. And yet, she had left that damn note, saying she was going to the cabin. My frustration seeped out of me in the form of a low growl. Kayla’s stubbornness was one of the things I admired most about her, but it was also one of the things that drove me absolutely insane. She never backed down, never thought twice about putting herself in danger if it meant helping someone else. And while that was admirable, it was also reckless sometimes. A lot of the time, actually. I picked up my pace, my wolf form moving swiftly through the forest. The cabin wasn’t far now, and I needed to get there before anyone else did, just in case Kayla had been followed. The snow was coming down heavily today, an impending blizzard.
