Chapter Thirty-Three

 

Caleb’s Point of View

 

Waking up and realizing that Daphne Was not by my side was one of the scariest moments of my life. After last night I was sure that she had left me. I have gotten used to waking up with her in my arms, not having her there was alien feeling and I hated it. I jumped out of bed mind linking Theo, demanding him and the elite squad of warriors out front now. Theo kept asking what was wrong, but I was too frazzled to answer him.

 

Rushing out of my room Theo met me before I hit the front door. “Caleb is there a security breach?” Theo is ready for an all-out war. *

 

“She is gone.” It is all I can get out reaching for the door handle. Theo stops me, and physically steps in front of me blocking me from leaving the house.

 

“Stop and explain to me the situation. You look half crazy, and you cannot address our people like this.” Rationally I know that Theo is telling the truth, but in my head at this moment the truth does not matter. The only thing that matters is finding her, making sure she is ok, beginner her to come home. 7 Taking a deep breath, I try to reign in my emotions. “Daphne is gone, I woke up and she was just gone. I need to find her and make sure that she is ok.”

 

“It is possible that she is already in the training grounds, or simply grabbing coffee in the café. You need to calm down, control your emotions, and we will find her.” Theo’s words give me a glimmer of hope. I do feel a little calmer and I feel like Iam more in control of myself.

 

“You are right, but I will not be happy until I know for sure that she is safe."I do not want to tell Theo about last night. I do not want to tell my best friend, the person that has been with me through every success and tragedy that I am failing my mate. I do not want to reveal to him that I am pretty sure that Iam the reason she is gone. Iam ashamed with myself. |

 

With Theo by my side we exit the house. I can not stop pacing on the front steps as Theo speaks to my most experienced warriors. He is telling them that Daphne is missing and that we need to find her. He is covering my ass and telling them that she could be lost since she is new here. Finally, I address them, explaining that she must be found, but I do not want to scare her.
