Chapter 4: Danger in the Shadows
Their journey wasn't easy.
On the third night, they were attacked.
A group of unknown men surrounded their camp, their faces hidden, their intentions clear—they didn't want Ayan to reach his destination.
"Run!" Naira shouted, grabbing his hand.
They ran through the dark forest, branches cutting their skin, hearts racing.
"Why are they after me?" Ayan gasped.
"Because you're closer to the truth than you think," she replied.
They barely escaped.
That night, under the dim light of the stars, Ayan realized—
This wasn't just a search.
It was a fight.
