Chapter 121

Barrett's face turned red with frustration. He grabbed Carissa's hand, and pulled her to one side.

"Carissa! You know she's been captured, and you won't rescue her? What do you mean by that? Do you know where she is?" he yelled.

Violet snapped a whip in their direction, forcing him to release Carissa's hand and take a step back.

"If you have something to say, keep your distance. Don't get too close to Carl," spat Violet coldly.

Barrett's anger towards Violet was obvious, but he grudgingly restrained himself. She was too skilled and not under his command, making her difficult to manage.

He turned back to Carissa, his voice still sharp. "You know where she is, don't you?"

Carissa shook her head. "I don't know. She could be in the desert, on the plains, or hiding in the mountains. But no matter where she is, we can't send the entire Mystic Army to find her. It's too risky."

"Then what are we waiting for?" Barrett demanded, pacing with frustration. "Are we just waiting for them to bring her back?"

Carissa's gaze remained calm and steady. "Exactly. We're waiting for them to bring her back."
