Kapitel 144: Something Is Coming

I stared out the window in the kitchen as the camp was hit by a bad snowstorm, the windows on the north side of the house starting to ice over.

Unable to stop my smile, I watched the snowflakes dancing in the air like we were caught in a snow globe.

"Do you have any chocolate bars left?" I asked, knowing that Rip was right behind me. I wanted a glass of hot chocolate, but without milk, it wouldn't taste the same.

"I do," muttered Rip as he reached over top of my head and opened a cupboard. He grabbed the first chocolate bar he could find, but I held his arm, making him freeze.
