How could it be considered a mate if it was careless and couldn't care for its mate? I blamed Lex and myself. Ioris should have told me what she needed instead of acting alone so that no one could find her until now.
There were no signs, nor did I feel anything about her, no premonition or instinct that she was in danger. That was why I still thought she'd be fine if no one had told me she was missing.
I couldn't contact Lex for some time. He seemed to be hiding something and no longer wanted to communicate with me and the pack members.
He and his sister, who had hidden plans, came to the dungeon almost daily.
"They're coming again," Jackson said as I stared out the window, thinking about Ioris' current state.
Where she was that no one could find. I searched on my own, but there was no trace of her. Even the mind link between me, Ioris, and Windy never worked.
I could still smell her whereabouts, but she was nowhere to be found, which meant she never left.
