Belonging Chapter 19
**Chapter 19** **Meelo** **Day 13** "What a dick," I said, flicking my ears as I turned my head back to face Grix. "No, he's not," Grix said, as he continued to cook his meal. I stretched out my legs and grunted as my muscles began to loosen....
Belonging Chapter 16
**Chapter 16** **Grix** **Day 12** "What do you think?" I asked. Sera, River and I stood in front of my hut, far enough away to give Seq some privacy. I knew I'd like some solitude if my father was found butchered in the middle of camp. It must...
Belonging chapter 42
**Chapter 42** **Meelo** **Day 47** Since I had guard duty early the next morning, I had to sneak out of my hut without waking Seq up. Fortunately, he rolled over to the far side of the bed, away from the door, so silently getting dressed and...
Belonging Chapter 38
**Chapter 38** **Meelo** **Day 45** "I hate just sitting here and waiting," Eirok groaned. Seq and I both nodded. I looked down at the bones and pelts of the two rabbits that the three of us had just finished eating. Seq and I had gone on an...
Belonging Chapter 30
**Chapter 30** **Callix** **Day 35** "Move!" a male jaguar with pure black fur and piercing yellow eyes ordered, as he jammed his small gun in my face with a scowl. If I had my gun or my knife, I would have gladly wiped that cocky look from his...
Belonging Chapter 28
**Chapter 28** **Seq** **Day 34** "You have to admit, it's kind of funny. One of us gets out of here and the other one gets put in," Meelo chuckled. Meelo sat up in the same bed that I was in, just earlier that morning. I for one didn't find it...
Belonging Chapter 20
**Chapter 20** **Meelo** **Day 25** I sat around the crackling fire with Vern and Teo, as the sun climbed to the highest peak in the sky. While I wasn't hungry, I watched and conversed with my tribesmen, who were each cooking their own prey....
Belonging Chapter 15
**Chapter 15** **Seq** **Day 12** The shrill sound of screams awoke me. My eyes snapped open and I sat up in bed to see Meelo, already scrambling to pull on his clothes. I wasn't even sure if he knew that I was awake until I spoke. "What's...
Perilous Jaunt Chapter 26
**Chapter 26** ** ** **Peter** ** ** We had put some distance between Ansil and us by the time we set up camp for the night in some woods that were far away from the City. Dante and I had barely sat down next to each other when Esme volunteered...
Perilous Jaunt Chapter 18
**Chapter 18** ** ** **Dante** Fortunately, the next town was only four miles down the road, so Esme didn't have to wait very long to replace her old knife. Thus, we arrived only two hours after sunrise. And, much like with previous towns, we...
Perilous Jaunt chapter 16
**Chapter 16** ** ** **Peter** "Leave him alone," Esme called out to me, as I began to walk after Dante, who had already disappeared into the woods. I turned back around and saw Esme crouched down beside the topless lioness. "He seems really...
Perilous Jaunt Chapter 25
**Chapter 25** ** ** **Dante** ** ** The hooves of our tamed horses crunched the fresh green grass beneath us as we finally returned to flat land once again. After a day and a half of riding through the Fanged Peaks, I was relieved to be out of...
