The Myatheira Chronicles: Volume Two: Beyond The Veil - Plot & Excerpts
Chapter Eleven Aiva wasn’t sure if it was fear or exhaustion which made the first evening so stressful. Everyone was on guard, tensed, jumping at any sound they heard. Their pace slowed to avoid drawing unwanted attention. If not for Callum and Gadiel guiding their directions, Aiva was certain the unit would have been lost to the darkness. Determining which way to go was next to impossible without the natural compass of the sun or landmarks to note their progress. At dawn they paused again to allow a slight reprieve from the journey; a chance to separate food rations and water in preparation of the impending daytime heat. No words had been spoken between Callum and Aiva since the sandstorm. They kept their distance, Callum tending toward the front of the unit with Gadiel while Aiva lagged behind with Kaemin, watching the two men lead them along in silence. Occasionally Kaemin attempted conversation, the topics trailing off quickly at Aiva’s disinterest. She had much to think on. Gadiel’s words stuck with her, mingled with those spoken by Callum before she’d ruined everything.
