Ryan's POV

I left shortly after that and as soon as everyone was at the gate we set of, we headed towards the borders we have in place for hunting and got there eventually

"Where do we go from here?" I ask Connor who we brought so he could show us where he saw them

"Down that ridge" we go where he points traipsing through the woods slowly and quietly

"How far down did you see them?" I ask him

"About a kilometre but they were advancing at a pretty fast pace" I don't like the sound of that

"How many of there were there?"

"I think it was about 50" he tells me and as I look down the ridge as sure as anything I see them

"Connor, go back, gather as many as you can leaving only the skeleton crew behind, make sure Chloe and my son have a guard but just say it's precautionary for some reason, in fact you know what do me a favour and be that guard, she likes you, but don't let her twist you into telling her anything, I don't want her to know" I tell him he nods but looks a little nervous

"Y...you want m....me to guard them?" He asks nervously, I think he was hoping I was joking

"Yes" I reply and he shakily nods "oh and Connor, make sure they all come armed, they might need to use those guns of theirs" I tell him and he nods before running off down the ridge as fast as he can, I just hope it's fast enough

Okay so there's 14 of us, hopefully that will be enough, they were sending a troop ahead to scout the area there were about 10, were slowly retreating back to our territory, I seriously hope it'll be okay right now
