I swallowed instantly.
"Now get out." He ordered .
I jumped at his demand and calmly got out of my seat.
He opened the door for and led out.
"You better don't try anything funny, princess." He said.
I didn't say a word.
As soon as I stepped out of the carriage, I saw the chaos of the attack.
No one would notice if I slipped out and was taken hostage. There was blood and dead wolves on the floor.
He grabbed and held the sword to my neck.
Then he forced ahead of him, and all I did was walk. Soon, we were down in the forest.
"Move!" He snapped at and prodded forward.
I walked on, silent, wondering what to say.
"Where are we going, please?" I asked him.
"You don't ask any questions!" He snapped at .
I remained mute.
Then he took to where the other wolves were.
They were part of his rogue pack.
"Who is she?" Soone asked.
"She is important to them." He snapped. "I found her in the carriage. Waiting like a princess. Look, she is dressed as one!"
"We need to leave." Another said. "We are outnumbered. We're almost all dead. They killed us."
"Yes, but we will take her along, " he said. "We can use her to exchange and bargain with Xaden. I'm sure she is important to them."
"I'm not important to him," I said. "Whether you kill or not doesn't matter. He won't co for or pay a di over my head."
"So why were you in a carriage?" He asked .
I went mute.
"I thought as much." He gave a wry smile.
Then he snapped his fingers.
"We'll leave with her, " he said. "Get her ropes and tie her. She is coming along with us."
I tried to flee, but I was dragged back. I struggled until a punch knocked silent.
Then, soone tied my hands and bound a rope around my body.
I was forced to stay put.
"Toss her on a horse; let's get going." He ordered.
A big man walked towards in what seed to be an attempt to lift and toss on the horses.
I felt a sudden presence and bolt of energy.
I didn't need to turn.
I saw Xaden standing in front of everyone.
And he didn't look too happy.
