Chapter 159

The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 159 BOOK 2 CHAPTER 82 ~DAMON~

“We can’t do this on our own,” Atticus says. I knew we couldn’t. Of course, we couldn’t. Not when we’ve been failing so far.

It’s been a few hours since Autumn and Clarissa have been kidnapped.

We had no leads, and despite the money already spent, no one could help us find them. We’d also been searching within those hours, and I felt restless. I had no idea what those psychopaths were doing with my mate. I’ve never been away from Clarissa for this long while, not knowing where she was. It was killing me inside.

“You’re right.” I agree. “You know exactly how I’m feeling. If I don’t find her soon, I will lose it.”

He nods, “I’ve called Austin and his family over. I’ve already informed them of what’s happening. They’re going to help us.”

“Where the hell could he have them?” I ask him. “We’d followed every lead possible, including everything Autumn has told us in the past. Why aren’t we finding them?”

“He must have moved,” Atticus answers me. “It’s the only explanation. But since they love being underground, I assume they are in a different location. That’s why it’s much harder to find them.”

“And what about the overlords?” I ask him. “What are we going to do when they find out that Clarissa is also a Reign?”

Frustrated, he closes his eyes, “I don’t know, Damon. I was hoping that Autumn would never find her siblings. I know it’s a selfish wish, but I knew that her life would be in more danger once she found them. Now we know that Clarissa was her sister all along.

That’s insane. Together they’re more powerful. Now all that’s missing is their last sibling. I don’t even want to think about it. All I want to do is find Autumn. We will deal with everything else after.”

I nod; I also want Clarissa back quickly. I didn’t want to wait longer to have her back in my arms.

“They’re here!” My mother informs us.

Austin, Hunter, Isabella, Lucy, Arthur, and Gabriella are the six that I see. Where were the others?

Gabriella runs over to Atticus and hugs him, “Are you okay?” She asks.

He shook his head. “I feel like I’m alive but barely breathing. I don’t know where she is. I don’t know what to do to find her.”

“We’re here,” Austin tells us. “We will find a way to get them back. One way or another, we will get them both back alive.”

Hunter nods at me, and I acknowledge his presence. “What do we know so far?” He asks.

“We know that Skyler is responsible for taking them. He’s the leader of Azai’s remaining followers.” I answer him. “We don’t know much about them. They were hidden for so long, and almost all of the information about them has been destroyed.”

“How did those men not burn alive?” Austin asks. He already knew of Clarissa’s power after Atticus gave him a summary of what had happened over the phone.

“I assume they must possess something that protects them from it,” I suggest. “I don’t know what it is, but I wish those motherfuckers had died last night in that fire.”

“It’s possible that they also cannot be harmed by Azai’s power; they are considered one. Clarissa and Autumn are both their princesses.” Gabriella says. “If Clarissa and Autumn cannot hurt them, we at least can.”

It was true. I liked the way she thought. If they couldn’t hurt them, we definitely could. And hurt them was exactly what I was planning on doing.

“I have someone who has eyes everywhere,” Hunter tells us. “I already got into contact with him. All we have to do now is wait for him to respond.”

That’s good. We needed someone like that to give us some good news.

“Maya and Kane, along with Eden and James, are already out there looking,” Austin tells me. “Lucas is having some marriage problems and sadly could not make it. As you can tell, life with those Blackners isn’t exactly easy.”

He didn’t need to tell me that. I understood how hard it was for them not to be in love and marry someone who wasn’t their mate.

Their rules were freaking insane.

“What are we waiting for?” I ask them. “We’re wasting time just standing here and waiting for someone to tell us where to start looking.”

Atticus nods, “Let’s get the hell out of here.”

“I’m coming with you,” Dante tells me, and I’m surprised he even said a word to me. Things weren’t exactly good between us.

“I’m coming as well,” Willow says.

“No.” Dante stops her. “You’re not going anywhere.”

“Why?” She demands. “Autumn and Clarissa have both been nothing but kind to me. Why can’t I help search for them with the rest of you?”

“Because your sister asked me to protect you, and that’s exactly what I’m going to f*****g do.” He answers her.

She looks disappointed by his words, but she doesn’t try to change his mind. She steps back and allows him to move past her.

“We’re coming as well.” My mother tells me. “They’re both our daughters, and we are getting them back.”

It felt good to hear her say that. I needed their support. I needed everyone’s support to get Clarissa back.

“We got it,” Hunter says suddenly.

“Do you know where to find them?” I demand, hopeful.

He nods, “I have information, and it’s exactly what we need right now.”

“Let’s go!” Austin shouts as we all follow him out of the house.

We got into different vehicles while Hunter led in his. I hoped that Hunter knew what he was talking about. He was usually good at finding missing people. They’d helped our family in the past, and I believed I could trust their word. If they said they knew where to look, we would blindly follow.

This was it.

I’m coming for you, Clarissa. I’m coming for you.
