Leaf Copyright © 2014 Chapter One Zeke stood in front of Castle Archangel, shivering. February was not his favorite month of the year. Ice slicked the sides of the stone steps leading up to the front doors, dark and ominous in the fading light. He sighed and hefted his pack a little higher, careful not to poke himself with the sword hilt sticking up out of the top of the battered canvas. He’d shrugged on his leather jacket a few miles down the road, but it didn’t help much with the cold. Winter still had its hands around the throat of the land and no mere angel was enough to fight that demon’s grip.
He’d flown for hours on this last trip. Or rather, days. Years. His shoulders ached from the long, desperate journey. He’d begun his northward trek a week ago, but he hadn’t expected it to be so brutal. His wings looked worn when he’d shifted back into human—proof that he’d come too far in too short a time. He ran a hand over his face, trying to shove down the loneliness that followed him everywhere.
