Chapter 102: The blood has been taken!

*~Cayden’s POV~*

"Aurora... are you sure this is the route?" I asked tightly, my eyes darting across the dense forest that now looked unfamiliar. We had stopped in what felt like the middle of nowhere.

No direction to go further.

Aurora turned slowly, frowning. Her brows furrowed. "Oh my God..." she whispered. "We passed the wrong route."

My heart dropped. "What?!"

And then I shrieked. "Turn back!" I ordered.

Without hesitation, we shifted and tore through the forest, our paws slamming against the earth as we raced back—faster than before, furious with ourselves. My wolves moved behind us in formation.

I paused. Hazel.. Her scent was everywhere. I froze, nostrils flaring as I inhaled. She had been here. Not long ago.

I turned to Aurora, and she was already looking at me, her expression mirroring mine. Eyes wide. Breath caught. She smelled it too.

But then—why? Why did it feel so distant now?

"We just—left—for a few minutes," I whispered, more to myself than to her. "How could she have disappeared so fast?"

I growled lowly and flashed ahead, my wolves fanning out once more. We searched again every inch. Still... nothing. She was gone.

Gone, and then, from the shadows, a silhouette appeared. A figure, walking slowly, unsteady.

Aurora gasped and rushed forward, her voice trembling. "Hazel?"
