Tasting Darkness

Chapter 156

Read Taming Darkness By Jessica Hall Book 3 Chapter 31 – Tobias

It wasn’t like I was a master of Aleera’s Phoenixes, but I could tell?

when they were acting strange. Wild, uncontrollable, and absolutely dismissive of everything that happened around them. They’d never acted this way before.

I didn’t want to put my theory to the test, but at this point, I believed that they saw everything and everyone as a possible threat. Since we didn’t have Aleera with us, they weren’t even going to pretend to be under any sort of control.

I wasn’t the only one that noticed the difference in them, either. Until these creatures found their place, their home, the fire in them would continue to rage. The only way to calm them would be finding her.

When we set off on our journey, the animals seemed to settle, almost. They were still crazy wild birds that acted as if they’d just broken out of a hunter’s trap and had to find their escape. They were an unstoppable army that could blaze through any obstacle in their way, and I didn’t want to be one of those obstacles.

The Phoenixes were just as beautiful as they were terrifying. A force to reckon with, just like our mate. They complemented each other perfectly.

The bubble of my thoughts and admiration was violently broken when the Phoenixes changed direction in the sky, wheeling off to a whole new area, and I finally understood that I had to pay more attention to them. It hit me like a bag of bricks. These beautiful, magnificent creatures were taking us to Aleera, showing us the way to get back to her side. And I would be d*mned if I was going to lose track of them.

There was no way to check if they knew where they were going or not, this was a test of faith, and we followed after them blindly. No matter how long or hard the trek was, we were going to get to her.

We had to find her as fast as possible before it was all too late.

None of us could predict what that crazy old hag had planned for our mate. She had already proven time and time again that she had no values such as family, and she couldn’t give a sh*t about her daughter. The only reason Aleera had been taken was a simple one – the power.
