A shocking gasp tore from her lips as what happened spiralled in her head, almost like her heart had inadvertently taken a minute pause after witnessing an arrow flash a tiny centimeter past her eyes with such lightning speed and into the bushes by her left.
"Ah" she had taken that narrow miss to be nothing but pure luck as she took a quick step backwards while directing her horse to take another route.
Judging from how perfect the arrow was aimed at her, she could tell whoever shot that arrow was extremely skilled, but it also led her to a conclusion that she wasn't alone in this forest.
This time around, she chose not to make a run for it, but the shock was still clearly visible on her pale stricken face as she slowed the steps of her horse, quietly wandering through the dense forest while scathing the area with her sharp eyes.
That arrow..... where did it come from??
