“Same,” Jacob added. “I feel more useful here even if we are just staring at this map right now.”
I closed my eyes and pictured her face in front of me. She was perfect. Her cheeks were flushed in my memory. Her green eyes sparkled and stared at me. It felt like she could see into my soul. Her plump lips stretched into a big smile. Her long, silky hair was sprawled all around her face.
I realized that I remembered her face from the first time we had sex. I remembered how her body felt under me. She was so warm and soft. She fit perfectly next to my large frame. Every curve of her body was made for me. She was mine.
My tortured mind changed that perfect, happy memory into something that made my soul burn.
Calvin ripped her away from me. His hands wrapped around her small body and dragged her away. She was screaming, crying, and begging me to help her. But I couldn’t move. I was screaming, but no sound came out. I couldn’t do a fucking thing to help her.
I forced myself to open my eyes. My body was covered in cold sweat. My hands were shaking and my whole body vibrated from the growls coming off of Nate.
I looked around the room and saw that everybody was sitting in the same position as before. All of them were in deep thought.
Gabriel looked like somebody was ripping him apart. If I had to guess, his mind too created the same images as mine did.
I grabbed his arm and his eyes snapped up at me.
“Don’t think about that,” I said quietly.
He looked up at me and took a deep breath.
“How did you know?” he asked me.
“Because my mind went there a minute ago as well,” I sighed, letting go of his arm. “We can’t do that to ourselves.”
“It’s hard,” he said. “I am so afraid. I just want to hold her.”
“I know, man,” I said as I ran my hand through my hair. “I do too.”
Our conversation was cut short when we heard a loud knock on the front door.
Cassie stood up and ran from the living room.
A few moments later, Annie came running inside. Her eyes were wide and filled with unshed tears.
She grabbed Gabriel with one hand and me with the other and pulled us into a hug.
“I am so sorry,” she sobbed. “We will find her. She will be okay.”
She let go of us and wiped the tears from her face.
“How the hell did he get to her?” Mike asked. “How did he break your shield, Gabriel?”
“He didn’t,” Gabriel said. “She went to him by herself.”
Annie gasped and covered her mouth with her hand.
“Why would she do that?” Jack asked, shock written all over his face.
I looked at Blake, who had a guilty expression on his face. He ran a hand through his hair and started talking.
CHAPTER FIFTY-NINE – The Scent
Gabriel’s POV
“You are an idiot, Blake,” Mike said angrily.
“I know,” Blake sighed. “I will do everything I can to bring her back.”
