Heart of the Hunter Chapter 25

Please enjoy Chapter 25.
Excerpt:
Peter was paired with Sir Valedain at the knights’ request, and they began to slowly make their way through the northeasterly track assigned to them. The brush became far too thick to stay mounted, so they tethered their horses and made way on foot.
It wasn’t long until Peter had fanned out to cover his own area of the forest. He found himself admiring the peace of the Lunargenti countryside, the natural untouched beauty of it all. Many of the old forests of Yar had been uprooted to serve the needs of farmers, but not so in Lunargen. Taking on the quiet inner patience of a hunter, he made as little noise as possible as he moved through the brush.
A motion in the brush alerted Peter, who saw a flash of red at the throat of the target and gave a cry. The two-legged target ran from the brush and froze as he came upon Peter. The bandage the poor fellow had made for himself was stained crimson, and he sank quickly to his knees in surrender. “Please…to…not….kill.” He said in halting Trade.

Squee!!
I didn’t realize this has been posted until yesterday. I probably should have waited to listen to it, but gave in to its siren call before I went to bed. Good stuff!
Now I’m torn – I really want to hear the rest, but I don’t want it to end
**grateful hugs**
