Seeing the wyvern heading in the direction from which he had come, Vlad decided to follow it.
What if they were subordinates of Daemoth who had come to get rid of the evidence?
When he reached the area around the cave, his suspicion only deepened. The snow was completely gone, and Daemoth's corpse lay exposed in the open.
He climbed a nearby tree for a clearer view. No one was present in the vicinity.
"Did they all go to the cave?" Vlad wondered, his gaze reaching the tunnel.
Someone was coming out.
His hand moved to the hilt of the sword at his side as two people emerged from the dark cave.
Seraphina and Chloe.
Vlad's eyes widened, a smile blooming on his face. His heartbeat suddenly quickened, and his fingers trembled slightly. Even though not much time had passed outside, it had been four years for him since he had last seen them.
The sight of them alone stirred something deep within his heart.
