Leon immediately squatted before Evie at Zolan's signal. "Please get onto my back, Princess." He said and Evie did as she was told without any hesitation. She was not going to pretend to be strong and end up slowing everyone down, or worse, endangering everyone's life. She knew when she can push herself and when to pull back.
Once she was tucked securely on Leon's back, Zolan stood by her side and asked. "Are you ready, Your Highness?"
"I'm ready," Evie replied Zolan and nodded at him with determination.
Zolan was relieved at the sight of her firm expression and clear eyes. It was amazing that she was this composed and even fearless. Even elite vampires – like them for example – felt fear, especially during that first time they had embarked on a journey into this land. They knew that the dangers here were real and not to be taken lightly.
