Mira grumbled angry. She had heard that those horses were trained. But she never believed it. Now she wished she had believed the rumors spreading around about rangers. Because she would have a lot of surprises the coming days.

And she was right. Two days traveling with Gilan learned her a lot. One of those thing were that he had massive mood swings like a pregnant woman. When they finally reached his house somewhere in the middle of the forest on an lost and lonely place. Mira had enough. Gilan was grumbling on her all day and he got really on her nerves. So when the ranger got inside. She stayed outside.

Blase looked at her with intelligent eyes. After the first meeting with the little horse Mira wouldn't dare to touch him again. So she sat down next to him and watched him eat the green gras on the ground. She heard Gilan calling. But ignored it. The annoying tall man got on her nerves and as soon as she could she would leave. He brought her in a whole new world of stealing. New challenges and new adventures.

She looked at Blase again. Gilan saved her in the castle. He was a Ranger. He knew she should be hanged. Yet he took her and also saved her from Oliver. Maybe she should try. Maybe she could become friends with the tall man. He had humor, which Mira liked. And also, maybe she could learn an honest job. Maybe she wouldn't been seen as an criminal anymore. But would she trust him? He would be just another one she could lose. Mira didn't bond, she didn't love and She didn't care. Why would she stay?

Suddenly Gilan appeared at the front door of the house. It only took a few seconds to reach her and pull her up. Without a word he dragged her inside the house. Then he left again, probably to look after Blase.

Mira looked around the house. Gilan didn't really leave the choice to her. It made her angry. The house was dirty. She walked to the door and opened it. She couldn't see Gilan. If she would run now, would he notice? She could try it.

Mira never liked doubting and took the decision. She ran as fast as she could to the edge of the forest. When she reached the edge she hide behind a tree painting. She leaned on her knees as she looked at the house. It looked kind of nice from here, she thought. In front of the house was a field of grass. A river streamed behind the house and the sun made beautiful shades on the ground.

'but not for me'. She whispered as she turned around to walk away.

If she had taken one step she would have been death. In shock she stared at the arrow pointing at her forehead. Frozen she looked into the dangerously angry eyes of Gilan. She bit her lip and hold her breath.
