“They’re checking on the bodies. We need to stay here and wait for them.”
I look at Fox’s mother and back at him. “Orion took a child?”
I don’t understand. Why would he do that?
She nods. “He didn’t say why. He just walked straight in and yelled for Adam to come to him. The little boy was badly shaken when he went with him. I tried to stop Orion, but he … He did something to me. My chest hurt and I was afraid that he might kill me.”
Goddess, he must have drained her.
She knows what he is, and she did the right thing.
But I feel cold inside knowing that Orion is alive, and that he took Adam.
He’s a vicious, evil creature, and that little boy is completely innocent.
I need to find them before anything terrible can happen.
“Where did he go?” I ask, dropping the basket of eggs and letting them roll into the grass.
It’s time to be the Luna this town needs.
It no longer matters if I have fighting skills or not.
Someone needs to stop Orion, and he has a fixation on me.
His brothers would have killed me outright.
He’s the one who had a different plan.
There must be a reason for that.
Oh, Artemis, please don’t let him hurt Adam.
Fox’s mother shakes her head. “I don’t know. I locked up quickly and made sure the rest of the kids were okay. I tried to call Alina, but I realized she must be at work. I wasn’t sure what else I should do, and then you all showed up.”
Fox looks at me, as if he knows what I’m thinking, and he isn’t sure if it’s wise.
Scratch point blank shakes his head.
Too bad if they don’t think we should hunt Orion down.
He needs to be found before he can hurt Adam.
I shift into my wolf form and let instinct guide me onwards.
I’m heading straight toward trouble without a plan.
Chapter Forty-Four
Scar
IkilledOrionMasters.I know I did. I snapped his ribcage open and tore out his heart afterwards, because he dared to attempt to mark my mate’s throat while she was unconscious. I crushed his heart in my hand, piercing it with my claws before I dropped it back into the useless cavity of his chest.
He can’t be alive. There must be another explanation.
I race toward the portal that leads to The Abyss, feeling the air rush around me as I move.
Snake is swinging from tree to tree overhead, moving even faster with long jumps and spins above me. He drops down in front of the portal before I get there.
