Chapter 102

Ember's POV

"They are at the infirmary," Jean said when he parked his car in front of his porch I turned around looking for the said infirmary,

"It's not around here. It's a bit of a walk. Down for a walk, or horseback?"

"Can we ride a horse? I asked somewhat excited, and he took my hand, an amused smile on his face,

"Yes, we can."

And we did, he took us to the stables and picked a majestic black horse,

"his name is Phil." he said, running his hand down its mane, "he likes beautiful women," he said and winked at me, before stretching out his hand to help me up,

"Are you sure those are Phil's thoughts?" I asked when I had mounted the horse, and Jean chuckled,

"and a bit of mine," he said, and joined me behind.

He made a sound and got Phil moving. It was really nice. Me in my dinner dress, on a horse, with jean ever so close to me, the night breeze caressing my face as we rode. And for a moment, I was able to forget where we were going.
