Forbidden Heat novel Chapter 73

“Where is she?!?!” Reiner screamed in Edward’s face as his strong hands grabbed Edward’s collar shaking him.

“…in the forest,” Edward replied calmly in a low voice.

“What?! You fucking left her there?” Reiner shouted in disbelief.

…

**Hours earlier**

Reiner was at the wheel speeding on the highway out of town. As he had expected, Edward did not reply to his text, and he still couldn’t get through to Natalia. Those two are definitely together. If not, Edward would be searching for Natalia with a full army of his men right now. The only saving grace in all of this is that Lucien is still oblivious to all that is happening.

If Edward is crazy and desperate enough, which he probably is by this point, he would most probably take Natalia to the place where the event in her dream took place. I’m not sure if what Edward is doing is the right thing or not but since Natalia has decided that she wanted to remember, there is nothing that I should do to prevent that. Edward would never use force to take Natalia with him and there were clearly no signs of a struggle in her bedroom. This means that Natalia went with Edward willingly in order to learn the truth behind her nightmares.

The weather forecast today forecasts for very heavy rain in the early evening. It’s probably not coincidence that Edward chose this day of all days to take Natalia there. It was raining hard the day the event took place as well. Shit, I don’t like where this is going…

“Where are you going?” Edward asked calmly after Reiner let go of his collar and turned towards the door.

“To find her! I know you want her to regain her memories but leaving her in the middle of the forest in this rain is dangerous!” Reiner screamed back at Edward.

“and…how are you going to find her in this rain?” Edward asked with a smirk while looking at his watch. It’s been 10 minutes now since he left Natalia in the forest. Was this long enough yet?

“What do you mean? We go out there and we search until we find her!” Reiner screamed. Edward’s nonsense is wasting his time.

“Want to make a bet with me? Let’s search for her. If I find her first, you swear not to ever touch her again. Deal?” Edward asked with narrowed eyes. Reiner is going out of his mind, no surprise there. He’ll probably kill me if he knows Natalia is naked safe from her thin white lace shirt…
