Alexi went to answer but was pulled up by Roland. He heard him say home as they headed to the cabin and his heart swelled. Was this what he thought it was? Was he somebodies first choice? He didn't dare jinx it by saying anything. They got into the cabin and Alexi wrapped his arms around Roland. Roland would be safe from the attack that was coming. That was all that really mattered to him.

"I am going to go get wood to start us a fire." HE said kissing Roland's cheek before heading out to get wood.

Soon there was a fire going in the stove and the cabin was warm. He did hope they were far enough out for the smoke not to be seen. But he knew that Marcus and the others never went to far a field. He had some fresh fish from the river.
