The Abused Luna's Comeback

Chapter 107 She Had Lost His Scent

[Rose’s P.O.V.)

It was already past eight o’clock at night, but Edward had still not returned home. He would have already been home by now. I had called him in the afternoon, but he did not pick up either.

During dinner, I expressed my worries and Jane comforted me. Edward and Patrick went to office together today so perhaps their meeting just lasted a little longer than expected.

I immediately called Patrick which he picked up quite quickly. “Luna, I’m in the city running some errands because Alpha said that he was going to drive home himself. Hasn’t he arrived back yet?” I started to feel uneasy. If anything had happened to Edward, he would have texted or called me. But he didn’t.

I tried calling Edward again, but the line was always busy. I paced back and forth in the hall, staring at the front door and an unprecedented sense of panic washed over

me.

Another half-hour passed and there was still no sign of Edward. The others were also starting to get worried.

“We need to send people to look for him. This isn’t his like him,” said Edward’s father. Unfortunately, his words only added to my worries. Parents usually knew their children best, so if his father was saying this, something must have happened.

Ad quickly organized the guards to set off but we suddenly got a call from Patrick.

“I found Alpha’s car and it looks like he had gotten into quite a serious car accident! His car has rolled off the bridge. I’m going down to check now!”

Patrick kept us on the line and we heard the sound of wind coming through the phone’s speakers. He was most likely running at full speed to Edward. He finally hung up and sent us his location. There were on a section of the highway on the way back to the pack.

I felt my eyes go black and I almost collapsed to the ground. Jane immediately held me up. She had just arrived.

“What happened?”

“Edward had a car accident. His car rolled off the bridge.” said I weakly. Each word I uttered stabbed into my heart like a blunt knife. I didn’t even know if my lover was alive or dead.

“Set off immediately!!” Ad quickly ordered the guards and they ran out the door. I gathered my strength to follow them out but Edward’s mother shouted after me.

“Rose! Child! You should just stay here!”

“But my mate’s in danger!” I refused to listen and continued to walk out. Even when every step felt like I was stepping on fire, I had to see him right away. I had to! He had to be okay!

We drove out in a couple of pack cars and I never hated a car ride this much. It was already so dark. How were we going to find him?

When we got to the bridge, there was no one on it. I noticed a side of the bridge had been hit by something, most likely Edward’s car. There were skid marks on the ground and I heard someone calling us from under the bridge. It was Patrick’s voice.

I couldn’t care less that we were now in the territory of human society. I turned into my wolf and put my clothes in my mouth. The others followed me as we ran in Patrick’s direction as fast as we could.

There was a dry valley below and the terrain was steep so running turned into jumping. The rocks were sharp and the branches of the dead trees kept cutting across our faces, but no one stopped. When we reached the bottom of the valley, we returned to our human forms. The others turned on the lights from their phones and finally illuminated a badly damaged car. It was Edward’s.

“Alpha is not in the car,” said Patrick and I felt my heart turn empty. A human would have died on impact from the fall. And even though Edward was a werewolf, he would still be severely injured.

We quickly checked the car and found some blood stains that formed a trail out of the car.

“Alpha is strong indeed. He must have been badly injured, but he managed to crawl out. Oh, I’m really hoping the moon goddess protected him.”

We followed the trail of blood, but it abruptly ended. “With such a serious injury, where would he go?!” I almost cried out, but no one could answer this question.

I knelt where the blood had stopped and suddenly smelled a familiar scent in the air. It was very faint, but I was sure I knew it. It was the smell of cedar and sea salt on Edward’s body.

“I can smell him!” I shouted.

Everyone looked at me and followed me back to the bridge.

“Drive quickly, we need to find him.” For the first time, I gave out a command as Luna to the ranked members and guards. I hardly ever needed to since Edward was usually the one to do so. But with our Alpha missing, I had to step up my role as Luna of the pack.

Patrick, Ad, Dylan, and I were in the leading car, followed by the others. I concentrated as hard as I could to catch Edward’s scent in the air, even though it was heartbreaking to smell hints of blood in the air too. My sharper senses as a Werewolf of Chaos was all I could rely on for now to find Edward.

We drove wildly down the highway, but soon we came to a forked path. Patrick said that one of them led to the mountains, and the other led to the city. There were some wheel marks on them.

“Luna, should we go left or right now?” Everyone looked at me nervously.

But I started hitting my head and crying uncontrollably. The others quickly came over to stop me but I was just too devastated and frustrated.

Edward’s smell was gone. I could not tell whether he had gone to the city or the mountains. It was so abnormal that my partner’s smell just disappeared.

We lingered there for a long time, but in the end we returned in vain. When we delivered the news to Edward’s mother, she almost fainted.
