A Christmas Rose: A Dusk Gate Chronicles Novella (Book 4 1/2) - Plot & Excerpts
After a few minutes, the scenery became familiar to William. He climbed up on the little bed built into the back of the carriage, intending to wake Quinn, but her eyes were already open. His heart sank. “Did you sleep at all?” “I don’t think so. How close are we?” “We’ll be at Ellen and Henry’s in a few minutes.” There was already a flurry of activity outside the home of Quinn’s aunt and uncle by the time the carriage turned into the driveway. Everything from the gates to the main entrance of the house had been covered with green and gold banners bearing the seal of Philotheum. Although he appreciated the fact that they were at peace, and nobody he knew was in danger, William found himself almost wishing for the quiet, inauspicious safe house they’d found the first time they’d traveled here, back when Thomas was missing. He knew it was worse for Quinn, who hadn’t grown up experiencing this kind of thing and from whom more was expected everywhere they went. He’d nearly finished helping her pin her hair back up – a skill he’d grown surprisingly adept at – when the carriage pulled up directly in front of the back, private entrance of the Fisher Estate.
