CHAPTER 413
~Snow's POV~
"Shit." Vera was gone.
One second, she was in my grip, choking on her own lies, and the next—vanished into thin air.
I clenched my fists, my chest heaving. Where the hell did she go? My thoughts spiralled, thinking of several places she could have disappeared to.
Was it Shadow Clave?
No. I doubt she would risk her mission that way, especially with the whole mate bond and all. Something was wrong.
And then it hit me.
"Zara." Her name slipped from my lips in a harsh whisper.
Vera had smirked when she said her name. She had taunted me with it. That meant only one thing—Zara was in danger.
A much bigger danger than I realised.
Fuck.
Without wasting another second, I yanked my phone out of my pocket and dialed Zara's number as I bolted out of the forest, heading straight for my mansion.
Ring.
Ring.
No answer.
Ring.
Voicemail.
