"Did you find her?" a day had passed but there was no sign of Cassey. The blood trail was lost because a dead wolf was found just a few feet away.
The blood mixed so badly that they could not be assured which one belonged to the wolf or Cassey.
"They have done it intentionally." the knight gritted his teeth. "I do not understand why we are still following her traces when the lord had left long ago."
Tyrone had brought them here but when he saw a dead animal and sniffed the blood, he left in hurry. Since then they were taking rounds here without any aim.
"What if the wolves attacked us?" he added when his men did not reply.
They all exchanged glances. It was not like they did not want to return. But they were afraid that the princess would be disappointed.
"Forget it, we will just walk randomly for an hour before returning with the excuse that we lost the trail." they all nodded at once, satisfied with the decision when Ornub frowned.
