Kian pov
Hearing voices around me I open my eyes and see I'm laying on the bed. Adjusting my eyes to the lights in the room I feel weak and hollow.
Remembering this feeling all too well I try to sense for our bond but it's gone, I can't feel her!
Laying there on the bed I only know I can't let him complete it, I have to find her.
"how is it with him!" I hear Declan's voice and know I'm not alone in the room.
"He's hanging in there" Cannon answers when I try to sit up.
"I can answer that question for you, I'm dying!" I say and feel Cannon behind me helping me to sit up in the bed. Swinging my legs over the edge of the bed I have to hold on to the bed when my head starts to spin.
"what happened!" Zoey asks and looking at her she is clearly worried. Turning my head back I place my hands on the edge and try to get up when Cannon is behind me and give a push so I'm standing up.
"he managed to break the bond!" I say and take a large breath, I'm weak but have to get out there to look for her, can't let him complete it! Rage starts to fill up in my body, there is no way I will let him get away with this!
"Are you sure you should head out to look for her?" Declan asks when I make my way over to the bathroom. Looking out the window I see it's almost morning and I'm not going to wait any longer.
"yes, I am! I say before reaching over to the bathroom and getting inside. Turning the lights on, my eyes land on the mirror in the bathroom, and looking at my reflection I'm pale and have dark circles under my eyes.
He took my mate from me! He broke the bond we shared and I'm getting weaker by the minute.
There is no turning back from this and if it's going to be the last I can do for her I will get her free from him.
Doing my business in the bathroom before I wash up and heading out to the others.
Coming out of the bathroom they all look at me with concern in their eyes.
"you know if you get marked from someone else you can make it!" Declan says and I turn to look at him with disgust.
"Selena is the only mate for me!" I say and end the discussion, I don't want to hear any other suggestions, It's her or no one!
"Alright! We should get the Alpha before we leave?" Zoey says and starts to head for the door.
"I'm going in a moment without him if he isn't ready!" I say and walk over to take a seat on the bed again.
"Go ahead! I'm staying with Kian!" Cannon says and I see the others leave when he comes over with a new potion
in his hand, wondering what this is supposed to do!
"There is a house further inside the swamp! It's tricky to reach over there and none of us has been anywhere near it for decades! It's the house of an evil witch and no one has dared to set their feet on her grounds for ages!" Albert says and I look at him for a long moment before turning back my head to look out at the swamp.
To me, there is no hesitation about what I have to do.
"Show me the way! None of you have to come, just show me where to go!" I say and everyone is silent for a moment.
"I'm not leaving you to go there alone! I'm coming with you." Cannon says before the others agree with him. Everyone will come to look for the house!
"Are you sure about this? I have nothing to lose, but you have!" I say when Declan places his hand on my shoulder.
"Definitely! We are not leaving you!" he says and I know there is no point in arguing with them.
"Alright! Show the way!" I say when Albert and his men are quick to shift. Following behind them we have to run for a long moment through the thick forest before we reach the other side of the swamp, seeing a small path over the swamp before there lies a thick wall of trees and bushes.
There is no way to see what is behind it and there is no point in thinking more of it, I came here to find any trace of her and if I have to face a wicked witch I will!
Slowly making my way over on the small path, to the other side of the swamp I come closer to the wall of trees and the closer I get to them I see through some parts a house standing further inside on what looks like an island.
Something is pulling me toward the house and I have to follow the pull.
