Chapter 492
Tasting All My Mates
492-Whisked Away!
Theoâs POV:
After Kellice called me, I couldnât wait to find out why she made such a huge statement. Maynard!â
Look over there for Enya. âAnd Lazio! go search every area for her,â I told them while I decided to go into the deep woods where she said she would be taking a run.
Lazio and Maynard looked equally worried about Enya. We all shifted and started running around like crazy. Everywhere I went, I met disappointed and not her. It was as if she had gone missing from the world. I tried looking for her in the mountains in my fully transitioned state, using all my strength and energy to find her, but I couldnât locate her for life.
My heart was racing inside my chest, worried about where she had gone. After we met up on the road in our human forms, I realized none of us had spotted her.
âI lost track of her scent on the road, which means she took the road instead of going into the deep woods,â I told them, feeling afraid of her.
âWe should speak to Kellice and try to know what else she knows about this,â Lazio suggested, and that seemed like the only option left to us.
We traveled in the same car to meet up with Kellice, who had been trying her best to locate Enya.
âShe is not with you.â Kellice rushed over to us when we entered the mansion together.
Her eyes were behind us as she was looking forward to meeting Enya.
âNo! we couldnât find her,â I told her in exhaustion. I canât believe I didnât listen to my heart and let her wander around until she had gone completely missing.
Did you do the locating spell?â Maynard asked Kellice, who nodded.
âIt is showing the same foggy nonsense that I was seeing when I was trying to locate Oswin and Mother Witch,â she explained.
âSo they are together now,â Lazio slapped his forehead, restlessly walking back and forth.
âCorbin was clever enough to inject that thing in her,â Kellice then started explaining to us what was Corbin up to.
âIt is a potion made with special ingredients. Corbin must have asked a witch to make it for her. Since he wanted to bring Enya to himself, he added his blood to the potion. So whenever Enya transitions, her wolf will first want to meet the person who injected his blood into her. It was used in ancient times whenever they shunned the late bloomers out of the pack and would want them to return when they get their wolves. It was easy for the sunned werewolves to find their way back to their alphas. It only works at the first transition,â Kellice explained, making us realize why Enya so desperately wanted to transition and set her wolf free.
Nia didnât even know, but she urged meeting Corbin and inform him she has transitions.
âMaybe he did it because he wanted to know if Enya has a wolf or not because he was going to have a match with her?â Lazio tried to make sense of the situation, but something didnât add up.
But he injected her with that potion long ago, before I was even resurrected.â I explained why it wasnât possible.
âThen why would he do that? What can he possibly get from Nia?â Maynard rubbed his chin, brainstorming over the situation.
âBut who helped hâ,â As Lazio continued to question the witch who might have helped Corbin, only one name popped into our heads.
âEmelia!â I muttered under my breath.
âWait! she is not with you guys.â Valerie, who had been silently standing beside Janet, asked.
âYesterday, when I was looking everywhere for you, I went to Maynardâs mansion and found Christina there,â she started talking to herself. âI heard her talk to her mother about Enya. She said Corbin would have her in no time. I didnât think too much of her as I thought maybe he wanted to pursue her, which everybody knew. But now that Kellice told us what will happen when Enya will transition, doesnât that mean wherever Corbin is, Enya is there?â she explained it better. We all shared a glance and watched Kellice for some more answers.
âThat canât be it. Emelia had lost her powers long ago,â she explained, making us frown and even confused.
âCorbin must haveâ wait a minute!â Her face looked like she had seen a ghost when realization struck her. Mother witch! They got her,â she sighed, slapping her forehead as hard as she could.
âI am going to go have a word with Corbin,â I grunted, unable to keep the anger inside me any longer.
If he has Enya, I better hurry and find her.
âWe will come with you,â Lazio and Corbin said in unison as they followed me to the door. We didnât want to waste time on cars, so we started sprinting like crazy, using our monster strength to reach Corbinâs mansion.
It took us time. In fact, I was the first who reached before the others. The moment I was at the mansion, I acknowledged that Corbin wouldnât be stupid enough to keep Enya here.
The mansion was empty. Lazio and Maynard arrived after I searched the whole mansion from corner to corner but couldnât find any trace of Enya. Even her scent was not available here.
âShe is not even here,â I mumbled.
But why is the mansion empty? I understand he took her somewhere, but where are the guards?â
Maynardâs question made me turn around and look at him.
He wasnât wrong.
âOr! Maybe it was a trap,â Lazio had only said that when arrows started shooting at us.
We jumped around and hid behind anything we could find. I saw a big, bulky warrior werewolf come downstairs, with weapons and a whole ass army behind him.
I looked over at the two, who were hiding together, and then all hell broke loose.
The guards started reaching us, and we were left with no choice but to transition.
However, they had some crazy plans for me.
The moment I started transitioning, the water started falling from the ceiling, preventing my transition.
As a lycan, I am afraid of water in my fully transitioned state.
