A Blood-Like Rain
Chapter 3 WHAT IF IT’S A TRAP?
— Kaden —
I began to panic.
We were heading to battle, but I smelled my mate. I smelled my mate!
I tried to track the direction the smell came from but it was so faint I could hardly notice it. I moved in circles half in a daze. I found a line, a line she must have been traveling, but I couldn’t tell which way she came from and which way she was going. And I tried to sniff both ways to see which seemed the strongest, the freshest.
Sam noticed my change in behaviour and got closer. When I noticed him, I raised my hand to make him stop. I was afraid his sheer presence would make me lose her scent.
It wasn’t completely irrational either as my own scent on her tracks was enough to nearly destroy what little clue I had.
I went in further.
I followed one side of the track all the way to a small stream, then I lost her. I checked all over, on the other side, everywhere. The track ended here. My best guess was she walked in the stream for a while, the water masking her scent.
I didn’t realize I had bolted in that direction, until I heard Sam running to catch up.
We were far now. The noise of my men, faint in the distance.
“What is it?” asked Sam worried.
“I found her,” I said in desperation. “I lost her.”
“Who?” he asked confused.
“My bloody mate.”
“Fuck! Now?”
“Yeah.”
“This is not a good time for this.”
“I know,” I growled in frustration.
I walked for a while, following the stream. I still couldn’t pick up her scent, so I stop.
“What now?” asked Sam.
“I go the other way,” I said.
I went back on my track. It was easier to go by the scent I just left than try and pick hers again. I went at a dead run, Sam could barely keep up.
