[Donald's Perspective]
After arriving in the forest, it became easier for me to sense Margaret's scent. There weren't many other auras interfering here.
On the way out, I saw Margaret's phone on the desktop in the house. She hadn't brought any communication tools.
I tried to contact Margaret in my mind but found myself rejected. There were two possibilities for this to happen. One was that she had actively blocked my connection. The other was that she was on another call.
I suppressed my uneasiness and tried to track her scent.
In an instant, I felt the panic in my heart suddenly intensify. Margaret's aura became clear.
I found her!
I locked onto a direction and ran that way in my wolf form, snarling.
Please be okay, please!
Margaret, nothing must happen to you.
I was close now. She was just ahead.
That's Margaret!
