The Surviving Son (Valkyrie Book 2) - Plot & Excerpts
At first he did not say a word, he knelt beside me, staring intently into the fading darkness. I too began to scan the shadowy forest, searching for the answer to the young man’s distress, but my eyes were met with spine chilling obscurity. “What is it, Eeamon?” I whispered. “We are being watched.” He hushed coldly. “Prowlers?” “Demons.” He muttered. “Like you.” My mind begged for it to be a GFS rescue party, but I knew the reality, Raiders. It was the last thing that we needed being so close to our objective. As the black turned to grey, I woke up Steph and we packed up our limited resources before trekking our way back onto the main road and further north. The longer we shuffled onward, the more alert Eeamon became, and the more I trembled. I was notably unarmed, aside from a pocket knife and a case of syringes, and unfortunately the young man’s rifle was a mere stone to a well-armed and immoral posse. So I kept Steph in the dark, letting her wallow in her own depression rather than instigating possibly unnecessary fear.
