Chapter 101 AURORA Nausea tookover as I looked at Dane and Trajan.
I didnt even think about it.
I knew she was employed by the Reeds.
I should have wondered where she cfrom.
I should have wondered why and how she showed up now, at such a convenient time.
But I met her away from everyone else, when I was down in Atlanta, and it felt like I ran into her on accident ... My knees went weak.
Dane grabbedand ledto a chair as horror overwhelmed.
Goddess.
Tristan and Seraphina .
Its my fault.
Its all my fault! Dane knelt in front of me.
We dont know for sure it was her.
She could have been a victim of the Reeds just as casily as you .
They could have found a way to threaten her.
Maybe blackmail her.
Does she have any family of her own? Maybe the Reeds.
dont have the children.
Maybe she took them to her family and is hiding with them.
Try to remember.
I took a shuddering breath and flicked through my fragmented memories .
It was hard, because even though they were becoming more solid all the time, they were all so terrible I didnt want to look at them and see.
I didnt want to remember.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI thought back to my earliest days, when the Reeds would spend the day training or purifying me, and then Mrs. Jamison would cto me.
She would bringfood, bathe me, tellChapter 101 stories .
She was so young back then.
And she would say ... I have a little girl just like you ... A daughter! I said.
She has a daughter.
But I dont know.
anything else about her.
Dane nodded.
Ill get my people on it.
Archer is still on Remingtons trail, but I have others.
I can- Trajan started.
2/5 You need rest, Dane and I said at the stime.
We glanced at each other.
I raised a brow at him, and he gavehalf a smile.
You can help them once youve slept at least six hours, I told Trajan.
My voice was light, but guilt still threatened to crush me.
This was all so much.
Part ofwished the earth would open up and swallow me, because I couldnt bear any more.
The other part ofknew that even if it did, I would wear my fingers to the bone to dig myself out, because no part ofcould rest until I saved my children.
Still, if I wore myself out, or Dane, or Trajan, I would lose the most important people in the search for my children.
Us, and... Wait, I said, new fear taking hold in me, Wheres Evander ? Chapter 101 Trajan looked grim. EVANDER 3/5 I slept in the woods on the edge of Broken Forest land that night.
A few restless hours, grabbed in the coldest part of the dark, just before the sun rose.
I wouldnt stop until I found the twins, and my gut toldthey were here.
Close.
Maybe I was cold, isolated, and alone.
Maybe I was in a strange country with wilderness wilder than anything I had experienced back home.
But no matter what Dane and Aurora said, this was my fault.
They were my charges.
Id failed them.
How could a man live with himself when he failed to protect two children? Family.
I was too far away from hto hear the back and forth chatter of the High Alpine pack in my mind, and it was strange.
Id grown up right in the heart of the pack.
Maybe not grandmothers favorite, but as a charming screw up, I thought I had a special place in her heart and the hearts of my aunts, uncles, and cousins.
But I could never show my face to them again any of them, including Aurora if I didnt fix this.
Chapter 101 4/5 I trotted through the forest in my wolf form.
The lycan wast good for battle, but the wolf was best for living outside, covering distance, for hunting and tracking without being easily discovered by anyone except other wolves.
Broken Forest land was rough.
A lot of it was mountains.
Places with sudden cliffs, steep slopes, and hidden ravines.
At least it was late summer, so the streams and rivers I crossed were warm ish.
I was far from the Reed pack house far from everything when I lifted my nose and scented other wolves.
The fur on the back of my neck stood on end, and my wolf growled.
Coming out this far was a shot in the dark, but there was a path through the trees that smelled like it was used often.
And it was used by important pack members.
Like Waylon Reed .
Carefully, I picked my way through the underbrush, following the path.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm
The scents were new enough that I kept my cars pricked, listening for e apy sound of other wolves. The path led downhill, into a ravine.
Right to the open, yawning mouth of a cave.
I would have waited, but I caught a new scent.
Two of them.
So faint, it was clear they were being masked Tristan and Seraphina.
Chapter 101 5/5 Trajan.
I said through the pack bond.
I found something.
A cave.
It smells like the twins.
Im going in.
Trajan didnt answer.
His thoughts were out of reach.
I guessed he was finally getting ssleep.
I should wait, I knew.
Let someone know where I was going.
But my scent would be here, now.
. If I left, they might cback, know I was here, and block it off. No way I was risking it.
Id just have to keep trying to get ahold of Trajan The content is on novelenglish.net! Without hesitating, I slunk into the darkness.
I didnt see the bear trap.
Not until it was too late.
