Chapter 45:
\~Jesse's POV\~
My men and I have been searching all night.
We searched the town, by the time we heard a horse went missing it seemed we were too far behind to stop her.
I rode and rode on my horse for hours. When I finally got to the town that I most suspected of being Luna's departure point, it was already morning.
I went through the city and started asking about a girl, though I didn't have a poster or anything for them to identify with.
All I had were my thoughts and the picture of her in my mind. Though it wasn't much help.
I looked through the harbor, though most ships were leaving by then, the ship Leon owned and used was gone.
"Damn it, I must've just missed her."
I hoped she was going to be fine and nothing bad might happen to her.
I worried about the troubles she might go through if she was noticed by other demons.
Then I realized my punishment if she were to get hurt.
Leon warned me not to let her leave the estate.
Just the thought of what might happen if she were hurt or even killed.
"Huh, I'm a dead man."
I looked out to blue seas' shining horizon. And turned back to the town just getting ready for the day.
Walking through the town I could see people setting up stands blowing out lanterns and candles.
I finally got to my horse, I left it at the edge of the city.
I noticed another horse, freely walking and eating grass.
I walked up to the girl and grabbed her reins I walked her towards my horse.
I connected her to mine and the three of us rode off back to the mansion.
I finally got back, it was sunny and the mansion seemed to be in a hurry.
I ran toward Thomas once it set the horses in the stables.
He seemed to be yelling towards anyone near to follow his commands.
"Haha(Heavy breathing), Thomas it's too late."
"What?"
"We were too late, she's gone, we just missed her."
"No, no, no, send a ship after her, we need to stop her before she gets there.!"
