Kapitel 225: Special Breed

As the rains descended the earth, Victoria cursed the circumstances but that was that. The clouds have been pouring for the past hours now and her garment had gotten stuck to her body like glue.

If she'd known she would not have dismissed Abel so simply. Now she missed him and because the nearest village seemed miles away. She was practically surrounded by woods and more woods. Bushes everywhere with needle-sharp leaves.
