Chapter 609

Blaise put the truck into park and blew out some of the tension. As drives went, that one had been intense. Visibility at best was five feet in front of the vehicle. Her truck was built for off-roading and it was a good thing, much of the drive had been through snow that would have bogged down her Alliance ride. Even the few times she could see, she wasn’t sure if she was on a road or making her own. There hadn’t been any gaps that could have been a turnoff, so she hoped this was the place. The snow was blowing so much she couldn’t see anything. Was there a house here? There had to be. Why did they send her here?
Grabbing her phone, she messaged Kenzo, her boss. Maybe now he’d give her some details. The cryptic instructions she’d been given were to get here any way possible, tell no one, and then she’d be filled in. The strangest part of it was she was told to use her own vehicle and not one from the Alliance. Why? It had taken her a day and the weather had done all it could to prevent her from going anywhere. She hadn’t stopped, afraid she wouldn’t get going again. She couldn’t remember a snowstorm like this before. She kept hoping she’d drive out of it eventually but hadn’t. If anything, the closer she got to this mountain the worse it got.
Her phone rang, and she answered without pausing to see who it was. It wasn’t like many called her.
