It’s been a week. Conner hasn’t co looking for . I stayed at the cliff for a day before I left his territory. I found a camp of rogues that I’ve been living with. They are surprisingly nice giving food and water yet its winter and food is scarce. I don’t know what I’m going to do.
Everything I own in back in Conner’s pack and I’m sure as hell not going back there. I’ll have to leave this country. Maybe go to Australia. That is until I can get to a bank and withdraw money from my account. I wonder why Conner would let go? I knew I wasn’t good enough for him. I was abused and mute. Who would want anyway? For the first ti ever, I was considering suicide.
I an there is a nothing left for in this world. It wouldn’t be so bad.
Conner’s POV
The pack eting was done. I had to go back to the house to check on Gemma. I gathered all my stuff and walked out of the eting room. I went to our room in the pack house but she wasn’t there. I checked the whole house but I didn’t see her. When I went to my office, I was surprised to find most of the paperwork I had, done. I checked the handwriting. It was Gemma. She did this for ? I smiled. But that smile turned into a frown when I realized she wasn’t here.
I started panicking. I tracked her scent to the room. She slept in the bed a few hours ago. There was also another sll. It was so faint you wouldn’t even notice it if you didn’t focus. But it lt like... ? It was floral too. Witch? What would Gemma need a witch for? I followed her scent to the forest where it suddenly disappeared. I sniffed and sniffed for hours but I just couldn’t get her scent. But I got sothing else. Sothing floral. Witch.
Conner! Where are you? I got a mind link from Jace.
Gemma’s missing. I can’t find her. But there is a scent of witch. Most likely a witch performing the dark arts. Find her. I commanded.
Axle was fighting for control but I knew I needed a clear mind right now. I run back to the pack house and started giving orders to the trackers to follow Gemma’s scent. I had to find her. Two days. It’s been two long days since I held my mate in my arms. Since I heard her voice. I was starting to lose my shit. I couldn’t find her. The only lead we have is the witch.
We haven’t found her. If -
Sir. I found the witch. She is being taken to the dungeons as we speak. Natasha mind linked .
I’ll be right there. I marched to the dungeons. This witch had sothing to do with Gemma’s disappearance and I was getting every bit of information from her.
Walking into the dungeons, I passed by all the cells with wolves who were pleading for rcy and apologizing. I payed them no mind as I went to the torture room. It had lots of weapons. I saw a figure sitting in the middle of the room. The witch. She had lots of piercings, purple highlights in her hair and looked like a teenager.
"Where is she?" I asked.
She laughed. "Like I’d ever tell you." she said.
I smiled at her. "Oh. Don’t worry. You will." Let the torture begin.
I used everything on her. Witches were hard by an iron and wolfsbane solution. A few shots of it in her system got her talking.
"Okay. I was sent. By so hunter. He told to search for her. I had to find her. He has my boyfriend. When I did I felt bad for her. That’s why I granted her one wish using my powers. Then I made it look like you had a betrothed and she left. Please. No more. That’s all. Please." she cried.
I nodded at the wolves beside her. They dragged her out of the dungeons. I was so angry I couldn’t hold back the shift that wanted to take my body.vMy wolf used to be an ash brown colour until I got my shadow powers and it turned black. Like the shadows.
I run into the woods and hunted down a deer. Tearing its small body to pieces was making feel better. I slipped into the shadows. No one could get here. I could shadow travel to different areas. But for now I just welcod the darkness. The emptiness. I knew I had to get up and find Gemma.
Find her! I mind linked my warriors. I wanted my mate back and nothing was going to get in my way.
Shadow traveling back to my room in the pack house, I shifted back and got a map. I opened a link to all my warrior wolves and we searched.
Where are you Gemma?
***
For the past few days we’ve searched every nick and cranny of my land. She was nowhere to be found. One week. That’s how long she’s been gone. I miss her so much. I can’t be here without her. I love her. I’m stupidly, deeply and foolishly in love with her.
I will tell her the next ti I see her if I can. Because for all I know she could be in Russia. Far far away from .
I was tired. I’ve been here in my office for days. I shifted and shadow traveled to the dark forest. Then I run.
I don’t care where I run or how long I did but I needed sothing to do. Sothing to get my mind off Gemma. I never stopped running.
I’ve been running for hours. My muscles hurt and my body is about to drop. I can’t keep this up much longer.
I stop. Looking around, I’m not in my territory anymore. I’m in rogue lands. I took a deep breath in.
Then her scent hit like a truck. It was everywhere here. She was here. Gemma. My mate. The scent was days and hours old. She was here. I followed her scent. It was getting stronger.
I’m coming Gemma.
