Reclaiming My Broken Luna by Selene Souchon

Chapter 86: Rescued

Killian's POV

My wolf grew restless as we searched around the forest without any lead or trail to follow. We are just blindly searching around the forest without knowing where to look for.

I perked my ears up and heightened my senses as I ran across the forest, hoping to get a whiff of Astrid's scent or hear her cries for help.

The recent downpour made it harder for us to track Astrid. Not only did it make our path muddy and slippery, which made it hard for us to run and search around, but it also dampened all the other scents in the forest.

The damp, earthy aroma masked any other discernible scents, frustrating us even more. There was nothing we could smell aside from the strong, earthy aroma that permeated the forest.

This proved my nose as an unreliable guide in the wake of the rain. I had no choice but to focus my senses on my hearing. However, even that also proved unreliable to follow. The sounds of crickets and birds chirping in the air made it hard for me to find the specific sound that could help me in my search.

I pushed onward despite having no hope. My pace quickened as I scanned the wet leaves and branches, searching desperately for any sign of where Astrid might be.

I had to find her before it was too late.

In order to maximize our search, we split ourselves into groups to cover more ground quickly and search through the surrounding area of our Pack. Drystan and I went on opposite paths to look for Astrid, leaving me alone in my search.

I'm sure that the others were facing the same difficulty as me, but we are not going to stop our search until we find Astrid.

I stopped to chase my breath and regain my energy. I've been running around for hours, and I've covered almost all of our pack's surrounding forest.
