Chapter 46: Bullied Nonstop
Xander could tell that Yera loved the mountains when he saw the smile and excitement on her face as soon as they reached their destination. She even stretched her arms wide and took a deep breath to absorb the fresh air.
The peaceful natural setting, drenched in clean and invigorating air, combined with a sense of adventure around every turn, would surely make their days together attractive and exciting.
He smiled in satisfaction as he looked at Yera’s thrilled expression as soon as they entered their luxury cabin. "It’s nice," Yera murmured. Everything about the lodging was perfect, from its snug interior, spacious layout, to its fantastic art collection. It also had the convenience of high-end amenities such as a complete kitchen, queen-sized bed, full entertainment system, and a BBQ.
And to add even more to its appeal, the cabin also had a massive wood-burning fireplace, a heated indoor pool with an adjacent hot tub next to a large picture window.
The gorgeous panoramic mountain view from the window reminded Yera of her days with Chief Doctor Song in his remote shelter deep in the mountains. It was probably why she loved their lodge and its surroundings.
Yera curled up on the sofa to enjoy the breathtaking view while Xander was busy discussing their activities for the following days with the lodge manager.
The snow had already melted so they could go on a lot of outdoor activities, like hiking, mountain climbing, kayaking, and many more, according to the manager.
It would be Yera’s first time to try out those kinds of activities, so she could hardly wait to do them all.
"Hmmm, I’ll go and prepare our lunch. You can relax here for a bit," said Xander as soon as the manager left.
