felt deep in her heart this was the right thing to do, and after all, he’d said, “I will find you sweet Lyanne. I will know when you are here.”
Lyanne almost wanted to test his theory, to see if he’d really know when she was there and if he’d be able to find her. She’d bought an open-ended ticket, as she didn’t know how long she’d be staying. Lyanne didn’t know how to find Darian’s place in the snowy wilderness, so if he didn’t find her there was no point in her staying at the resort, as she couldn’t even ski.
Her mind wandered to James.
She hadn’t seen or heard from him since he flew home to Vancouver with her, so she assumed he’d gone back. Was he reporting that she’d made it home to Darian? Did Darian even care now that she’d left his wilderness life?
Lyanne’s journey out of Vancouver was all set for the next morning so she finished packing and then treated herself to a long soak in a hot bubble bath and an early night. Her night was filled with dreams about Darian, which were much better than the nightmares about wolves that she’d experienced when she was first back home. Many nights she’d woken up covered in sweat, with Maggie asking if she was okay.
The next morning Lyanne was up early, Maggie was seeing her off at the coach station.
“So I can’t contact you at all then?” Maggie asked her friend as they ate breakfast.
“You can reach me at the actual resort Mags, but not if I find Darian, and I’m not sure I will, but if I do then there’s no service at his cabin,” she noticed her friend looked worried. “Hey, I’ll keep in touch as much as I can, but don’t worry I’m not going to wander off alone, I promise.”
Maggie looked at her friend, “Make sure you don’t.”
“Yes mom!” Lyanne laughed.
They finished their breakfast and Maggie drove Lyanne to the coach station, it didn’t seem like five-minutes ago that Lyanne came home. It was a quick turnaround but she knew it was right. Maggie hugged her friend goodbye and Lyanne made her way to board her coach.
The coach was quiet, which surprised Lyanne as it was still the height of the skiing season. She chatted to the ticket girl as she came around, “Excuse me, why’s it so quiet? Is this normal? Last time I flew out the plane was busy. Are the coaches just quieter than the planes?”
The girl looked at Lyanne with a very agitated expression on her pretty face, “I probably shouldn’t tell you this miss as you’re traveling out there, but there have been recent reports of wolf sightings close to the Blackcomb Ski Resort. There was even a fatal attack on a young guy a little while back.”
Lyanne knew she was referring to Nathan, but decided not to go into it with her. She just said thank you and the girl went about her job.
Now Lyanne’s mind was racing. Was it the same pack of wolves she’d seen? The ones that attacked Nathan. Darian had promised her that they wouldn’t harm her, but how in all honesty could he know that. She hoped she’d made the right decision in returning, she’d come so close to being seriously hurt by wolves on her last visit. Talk about jumping straight back into the lion’s den or the wolf pack in this case!
The duration of the journey went by with no major issues, except for a man who was feeling sick. Lyanne felt sympathy for the man. The start of his vacation was the coach trip and for most of it, he was busy throwing up into a bag.
The coach took them straight to the Blackcomb Ski Resort and Lyanne checked into her hotel and started to make her way to her room. She went up in the hotel’s lift, Lyanne had never felt comfortable in lifts, but being a bigger girl, the stairs were always hard work for Lyanne. She should have taken them really for exercise purposes but with her bag to carry, the lift was the easy and lazy option.
As she arrived at her floor the lift doors slid open and Lyanne
