Lilith didn't answer. She just smirked slightly, her eyes focused on the road. "You'll see."
They kept driving until streetlights disappeared. No more signs, no more traffic. Only sharp curves, the sound of wind against glass, and the crunch of snow under tires.
Finally, she pulled the car to a stop on a ridge. They were deep in the forested edge of a frozen ravine. Below them, cliffs dropped into an ice-covered gorge. The sky above was now a dark, stars barely beginning to peek through.
Lilith stepped out of the car first, her boots crunching into the thick snow as she came around to open his door. Darkness raised an eyebrow but got out.
"What is this?" he asked, looking around. "There's no one here. Just wolves and ghosts."
