"Suzie, where are you? Are you in your room?"
Mark slammed Suzie's door open, but she was not in her room, the standard room, the dining hall, or the garden. He could not find Suzie anywhere, and this worried him.
'Where the heck did my little sister go? I need to find her before someone else does and cause her a mini-heart attack.'
Mark knew just how delicate his younger sister was. Suzie needed to be cushioned whenever she received dire news, and the news of her bond mate appearing in her house out of the blue was sure to be a big one.
Since none of the other methods worked, Mark decided to use his final weapon - his phone.
He called Suzie in hopes that she would pick up. She was not someone who went anywhere without her phone.
And Suzie picked up at the first ring.
