The Secret Sanctuary

The carriage stopped after what seemed like half an hour. The journey was smooth and silent, almost causing Seraphina to fall asleep if not for the curiosity that was clawing at her insides to find out excatly where the men were taking her in the middle of the night.

"Sera, come out."

Kethan's familiar voice had her immediately climbing out of the carriage. The four men had also climbed down from their horses and they were in the middle of a small clearing of the forest. All around them stood the dead trees that appeared hauntingly dark and silent.

"Why are we here?" She asked as her gaze returned to the four men once she was done studying her surroundings.

"We are going to a special place for a few days." Arwan answered her question with a bright smile. He seemed really excited and it made Seraphina more curious about the mentioned special place.
