Heidi’s words made sense, but at this moment, I couldn’t afford to wait. Rosaline couldn’t wait for much longer.

Every minute we wasted meant another minute she was in danger!

So, even though I was exhausted, the thought of Rosaline’s fate kept me moving. I couldn’t stop for even a second.

“We’ll split into four groups and search in four different directions,” I said after a moment of thought.

The forest was vast, and we had to make sure we didn’t miss a single inch.

“Caden, I’m coming with you.” Heidi grabbed my arm, worry written all over her face.

I was moved and nodded at her. “Tessa, this place is dangerous. Stay close and be careful.”

Heidi smiled faintly, her lips curling upward. “Caden, you’re so good to me.”

The four groups spread out in different directions to search for Rosaline. I led Yura and the others along the path where Rosaline was most likely to be.

With Yale and the others joining us, the search became more thorough.

The sky gradually darkened.

There was still no sign of Rosaline.

“Caden, I’m scared,” Heidi said, looking around at the pitch–black surroundings. She shivered and pressed closer to me. “What if there are wild animals?”

My heart sank.
