Chapter 443: THE FOREST

Through the forest, Jasmine clung on Kire’s back as they rode through.

He kept on going through thick woods and she couldn’t deny the fact that she was beyond words terrified.

Her heart raced in fear and for a split second she realized what she had done was utterly stupid!

Why did she think that her going to find him was going to be any different from the guards finding?

What made her think her own case was going to be different?

And she felt the ick against her throat as she realized how dangerous the outside world could be.

All her life she had been sheltered and protected by her packs.

Even when she had suffered terribly in the moonlight pack, she had still been shielded from the terrors of kidnapping and pack wars.

Worse for an unshifter like her.

And if Xaden knew what she had done, he was going to have her neck.

But she had only done it because she had been tired of waiting around for the men to come around.

If Erik had listened to her from the beginning things won’t have been this bad.

They would have gone in search of Xaden and found him earlier on.

It would have never been as bad as this.

She closed her eyes and told herself that she had already done this and there was no going back.

All she needed to do was follow Xaden’s trail and avoid confrontation from any of the other packs.

Kire seemed to know what he was doing so she gently rubbed the fur of his hair in appreciation.

Kire was quite fast.

She had never been on his back before but she knew that he was time five faster than a regular horse.

He took loops in the air before he raced every five minutes covering much distance.

Throughout the night they raced and when it was almost dawn, he eased his riding and for a split second Jasmine thought perhaps he was tired.

”Kire what is it?” She asked him. ”Are you tired?”

He very gently slowed down.

Made turns here and then for a second he stood still before making a turn on his left and then racing the other way.

Eventually he came to a stop and set down on his stomach.

Jasmine understood he wanted her to come down so she gently did.

She rubbed his ears. ”Thank you Kire. You must be very tired.”

The wolf nudged her ahead and then she seemed confused at first.

He gently used his head to nudge her ahead.

She turned around to see what he was leading her to.

She walked ahead very slowly.

By then the dawn was breaking very little.

She walked aware that Kire was right behind her and ready to protect her at any given moment.

And then she stopped when she found what Kire wanted to show her.

He was not tired.

He was simply leading her to find what he sensed.

And there were piles of distorted bodies.

She gasped in terror at the sight.

She knew well enough to know that these were men of their pack.

She saw the face of one of the men who had watched as she waved Xaden off before they left.

Except it didn’t have smiles anymore neither did it have a body attached.

He had been decapitated and other body parts half man half wolf spread well apart the forest.

She felt herself begin to feel sick.

She turned around and threw up, completely emptying everything in her stomach.

Kire looked at her and then she fetched the water gourd from her bag and used some water to wipe her mouth clean.

She told herself that she needed to be careful with water she didn’t know where next she might get spring water.

Once she was sure that she could stand again without throwing up, she turned to face the pile of scattered body parts. What could have done such a thing to them?

Who?

The men that had followed Xaden were well and able bodied wolves who could tear five men apart at once.

And yet they had been scattered like pieces of meat.

Her heart feared for Xaden.

She told herself that he was going to be fine and no harm was going to befall him

She took in a deep breath and started scouring around to see if anything belonged to Xaden.

She picked out a small piece of handkerchief he had given her a while back.

It was a prized possession to her and then she handed it to Kire to sniff.

The plan had been to find where the blood stained clothes had come from and then o find Xaden.

So Xaden began to sniff around and they both searched for him.

She looked through the bodies and felt dread overwhelm her as she lifted through pieces of human and wolf flesh.

There were also wolves that she saw did not belong to the pack.

What?

Did this mean that the bodies also killed belonged to the pack who had attacked them?

After search for almost one hour and the sun now began to rise slowly in the horizon, she still found no traces of him.

Which was a good and bad thing.

At least now she knew he was not among the pile of dead bodies.

But she also didn’t know where he truly was.

If he was even still alive.

She shook the thought away from her mind.

No Xaden was alive.

And she was going to find him.

That was the truth.

She set her hand against her stomach and began to gently feel her baby.

There was no kick but deep down she knew that the baby was okay.

She paused to quickly take her herbs.

She couldn’t risk having a complication out here in the forest all alone.

Kire stood with her all through it and when she was done she took in another deep breath.

She couldn’t find Xaden or any trace of his scent and something came to her mind.

If she couldn’t find Xaden, she could find the people who attacked him.

She went through the piles of dead bodies and picked up one of the pieces of clothes that she was sure, belonged to the rival packs and handed it to Kire to sniff.

Kire sniffed and then turned to a different direction.

”Good boy.” Jasmine smiled as she mounted him and he rode off.
