Chapter 50: New Mate Wants A Kiss!

"How do you know something is wrong with him?" Renn asked, his eyes narrowing at Angela. The others turned to her, their faces tense, waiting for a reply.

"Be-because he usually comes to me almost every hour," Angela said, her voice a bit shaky. "But today is different. I haven’t seen him since afternoon."

Taros and Renn looked confused, but Kaito didn’t. His eyes remained steady on Angela, and something in his expression changed.

"I think Angel is right. Hiro is in danger. We have to do something now," Kaito said without hesitation.

"What are we going to do?" Taros asked, worry written all over his face. "We don’t even know where the hell he is."

"He hasn’t connected to us. That only means one thing—he’s in serious danger. And Kael isn’t picking up either," Renn added, his eyes fixed on his phone. He typed out a quick message to Hiro asking where he was, but after a moment, there was no reply.

"We’ll search around," Kaito said firmly. "Don’t tell the students anything. We don’t want to cause panic, especially with the humans around."

He glanced over his shoulder and added, "Alex and Stales will join the search. Renn, you’ll take Samuel with you."

Angela stepped forward quickly. "What about me?" she asked, surprised that she was being completely left out. There was no way she could just stay behind and do nothing while Hiro was out there, possibly hurt. But then again, wasn’t she supposed to be glad he was out of the way? Wasn’t that what she had wanted since she couldn’t reject him?

"You’re staying here with the others," Kaito told her firmly.

"Why?" she asked, even though she already knew the answer.

"Because I won’t risk your life," he said without hesitation. "Don’t argue with me."

"Kaito is right," Taros added. "It’s for your safety."

Renn said nothing. He was already preparing to move out.

Angela looked down, her heart sinking. "I guess I have to stay back," she said quietly. Of course, in their eyes, she was still just a weak human. But they were wrong. She was going to prove them all wrong. That day was coming. She could feel it.

Alex stepped closer and whispered, "You should relax. We’ll be back soon."

Angela gave a small nod and moved aside as they began to plan their search. Kaito would go with Alex. Renn with Samuel. Stales with Taros. A perfect arrangement for quick coverage.

"Don’t do anything stupid. We’ll be back before you know it," Kaito said again before they turned to leave.

Angela nodded again, trying to listen and obey, but her heart felt heavy. She was about to sit down on one of the benches when she suddenly heard her name.

"Angel..."

The voice sounded weak, almost like a whisper carried by the wind. Angela looked around, but no one seemed to be paying attention to her. Alex and the others had already left. Who was that?
