I growled at Jacob and let her go. I watched her walk behind Jacob to the kitchen. She turned around and smiled at me.
She was perfect. And she was mine.
And I let her go.
The image distorted again, and it was something I hadn’t seen before.
My mate was tied to a bed, screaming my name, begging me to help her.
Calvin was standing next to her bed. His hands touched her body. His hands were touching what belonged to me. My mate was screaming and thrashing, trying to escape the restraints holding her captive.
But Calvin was dead. I watched him die. I helped kill him.
My mate in the pool of her own blood. Her lifeless eyes were staring up at me. That green color that I adored was gone.
She was gone.
My whole body felt like it was burning. My heart broke into a million pieces. There was nothing left of me. The only thing left was pain. I closed my eyes and wrapped myself in a ball. Her scent surrounded me, and I tried to hold on to it.
“I love you too,” she said quietly.
I heard her voice, but I couldn’t see her.
I couldn’t see her because she was gone.
I forced myself to open my eyes. I had to see her.
I was back in our room. Back in our bed. I was clutching her pillow to me, and I was shaking.
She was gone. She was really gone.
I couldn’t hear Nate, but I could feel his pain, anger, and despair.
I tried to remember what happened.
The last thing I remember is that I was running through the forest, following her scent. I reached the road, but her scent stopped there. I wanted to try and follow it further, but…
I remember.
I growled loudly and jumped up.
The fuckers stopped me! They stopped me and put a spell on me!
I heard footsteps running toward my room, and a few moments later, Gabriel and Jacob barged in.
Gabriel’s eyes were wide as he stared at me.
“You bastard!” I growled.
“Nick, listen to me, please,” Gabriel said quietly, raising his hands in surrender. “We had to do it. You attacked me. You weren’t in control.”
“OF COURSE, I WASN’T IN CONTROL!” I yelled. “MY MATE IS GONE AND YOU STOPPED ME WHEN I TRIED TO FIND HER!”
“I HAD TO!” Gabriel yelled back. “You weren’t thinking clearly. You still don’t. There is no way we could find her like that. We don’t even know in which direction they left. We need a plan!”
“I could have followed her scent,” I said through my teeth.
“What scent, Nick?” Gabriel sighed. “You lost her scent when we got to the road. You couldn’t follow it, because there was no scent to follow.”
