CHAPTER 85 : A DREAM OF A PROPHECY

*Soren*

Mila’s scent got fainter the further I tracked it. The blood on the knife had been a good clue but the rest of her trail was almost impossible to follow.

We were moving along the edge of a forest, her scent coming and going.

“They must have been carrying her,” I muttered to myself.

The forest ran along Norwind’s border. Just as we crossed into the territory, her scent disappeared entirely.

I stopped dead and tried to reach out with the mindlink.

“Come on Mila, tell me where you are?” I begged through the link.

There was no response. I couldn’t sense her at all.

Dammit!

I’d gotten so comfortable with her, so used to her being there that I’d stopped having my men keep track of her and follow her. I’d convinced myself that I was all the protection she needed.

And the picture… How stupid was I to keep the damn thing in the drawer? I should have explained my past, taken the time to make her feel comfortable with it. I should have stayed by her side every second, especially knowing her habit of running off.

This was my fault!

I knew there were people after her and I’d stopped being vigilant and protective.

“What’s going on?” Thomas asked, coming up beside me.

“We should take a water break. Let the trackers regain their senses,” I said.

“And you?”

“I lost Mila’s scent and we need to regroup.”

“Soren, I mean what’s going on with you?” He clarified, his brow creased with concern.

Sighing, I waved him off.

“I’m going to try and contact her with the mindlink again.”

I turned away from Thomas, preparing to reach out again. I’d been using the mindlink so much that it was taking a toll on my energy levels. I was exhausted.

“This isn’t your fault,” Thomas called after me.

I paused and glanced back for a moment. Shaking my head, I closed my eyes and reached out with the mindlink again. It was no use…

There was nothing but absolute silence. I tried focusing on my sense of smell, honing in on Mila’s scent and how rich and delicious it smelled on the knife. If only I could catch a little whiff of her.

“Soren.”

I snapped my eyes open and saw Thomas holding a bottle of water out to me.
