Chapter 356: Desperate
OWEN
~
I have been out here for hours searching for Emma, ever since she ran out on
and disappeared into the woods, I was lost for a couple of hours before finding my way back to my truck. I was fucking worried right now, there could be Rogues roaming around just like she said, and being out there all by herself was dangerous. Even if she found Dace she still won’t be safe... especially when she uses that spell, I don’t know what will happen exactly but I knew it wouldn’t be a good ti to be around him.
I had known about that spell before Emma brought it to , I did so findings in the Library of the Firsts and was able to co across so research about werelion’s bond or whatever the hell it was called, but I understood what I needed to, how deep the bond sows into ones soul and how the mark makes the mates connection and how to break it.
The spell was originally made as a way to battle werelions by attacking their vulnerability but the process was later paused due to so issues... then one of the first succeeded in completing the process but it could be used only once because of how powerful it is, so that spell was the only one in existence.
Emma can’t handle powerful spells on her own, which was why I wanted to follow her through this and sohow enchant the spell without Dace knowing but she ended up going off on her own.
Fuck!
If this goes wrong I won’t be able to forgive myself if she gets hurt. I was originally supposed to be the one to use this spell, not her, and I didn’t want her to bear that burden, I wanted to carry it myself for her sake. If only she hadn’t run away, if only I had caught up to her, I must have run in a different direction far from hers, and that was why I lost her.
I just hope she’s okay... and she’s not picking up her phone which only made my worry spike more to the point I had no choice but to call Grayson, he can track her with his abilities.
Speaking of Grayson... I could already hear the sound of his bike fast approaching in the distance, the loud roaring of the engine, I just called him an hour ago, he must have been riding at full speed.
I pivoted as the harsh light ca directly to my eyes and I had to look away. I heard the engines die down and the light went off. I set my eyes on two companies and I frowned.
"What is she doing here?" I asked, nudging my head at Emilia.
"Hey witch boy" she mused, smirking at
as she took off the helt.
"Just ignore her. Now what do you an by you can’t reach Emma? You both ca here together right?"
"Yeah and she ran off before I could stop her, Look man, I searched everywhere but I couldn’t find her" I explained.
"She wasn’t supposed to go off on her own, The plan was to get the spell translated and we et up," he said as his eyes scanned the area. "She has to be here around sowhere"
"Or with Dace" Emilia adds. "It’s odd... I don’t sense the Rogues close by, I don’t think they are here anymore"
"And Emma?" I asked desperately.
"I can’t feel her too or Dace," she said with a worried expression and that only intensified my nerves. "I think sothing is wrong, Dace has to be here sowhere, and Emma too"
"We have to keep looking," Grayson said, getting his gears, I spotted two guns and a crossbow strapped to his back and then he grabbed his flashlight before facing .
"You good? You look more scared shitless than I am"
I gulped as the words hung in my throat, I walked to my car and grabbed my flashlight. "I’m just worried," I said, chewing the inside of my mouth.
"I am too... let’s find her"
I nodded as I pointed to the direction I last spotted Emma in and Grayson walked ahead of us.
"Your heartbeat spikes every second and you’re sweaty and you keep chewing the inside of your mouth"
"Instead of monitoring my every move don’t you think you should focus that energy on finding your beast brother" I snapped, I don’t have ti for this.
"Hmm," she made a sound only keeping her eyes on .
We ca to a stop when Grayson pointed the light to the ground to look for tracks.
"She was here alright, the tracks are faint, she was running"
"Apparently running from "
"She probably did that because if you followed her, Dace would have ripped your head from your body the mont he sniffed you"
I gulped at her words.
"She was protecting you, idiot" she added facing ahead and suddenly her eyes did so glowing shit and a gasp left her next.
Grayson was instantly up on his feet turning to her with a worried expression. "What’s wrong?"
"I-I was just mind-linked by my mom," she said looking up at him. "Dace is back ho"
"With Emma?"
"She didn’t say much, but whatever is going on back ho is chaos, I-I have to go"
"If Emma isn’t with Dace then where is she?" I demanded.
"My mom wasn’t specific, I will go and see for myself, Emma might be there... in any case, you two keep looking here and update "
"Wai-" Grayson couldn’t even finish as Emilia blurred away right before our eyes and she was gone, nowhere to be seen.
"Let’s keep moving," Grayson said, already walking ahead. He was desperate right now to find Emma quicker and I was just as keen too.
Did they miss each other by chance? What if Emma didn’t see Dace before he left, but then again I knew a werelion could detect scents, so he would have gotten a whiff of her the mont she was closer to him.
What the hell is going on?
And what is this dreadful feeling I can’t shake off?
