The heavy steel doors of the transport slammed shut with a deafening boom that rolled through the canyon.

“Natalie!”

The roar that tore from my throat didn’t belong to a man.

It belonged to Raze.

Pure Blackridge fury exploded out of me in a violent shockwave that rattled the

canyon walls.

The force of it shattered what remained of the cracked windows in the convoy behind me, sending fragments of glass scattering across the asphalt.

I launched forward.

The world narrowed into a single target.

The retreating transport.

My boots hammered against the ground so hard that chunks of asphalt fractured beneath each

step.

Trees blurred at the edges of my vision. Cold air tore against my face as I drove every ounce of speed through my muscles, reaching for the vehicle disappearing down the logging bypass.

Five meters.

Three.

Two.

My fingertips grazed the rear steel panel.

For one fleeting second, I touched it.

Then the driver buried his foot into the accelerator.

The engine screamed.

Mud and gravel exploded from the rear tires as the transport surged forward, weaving violently between the ironwood trees lining the bypass. The distance widened instantly, opening between us like a wound carved straight through my chest.

Still, I ran.

I chased the truck long after logic demanded I stop.

I ran until my lungs burned.

Until the metallic scent of silver suppression gas coated the back of my throat.

Until the transport tore through the outer tree line and vanished onto the lower highway routes, leaving behind nothing but exhaust fumes, crushed branches, and silence.

Only then did my body finally stop moving.

I skidded across the muddy trail, boots digging trenches into the earth before I came to a halt in the center of the ruined path.

For several seconds, I couldn’t hear anything except my own breathing.

The battlefield.

The gunfire.

The shouting.

Everything faded.

Because none of it mattered.

Not anymore.

I closed my eyes.

My chest rose and fell heavily as I forced myself to focus.

This wasn’t over.

I didn’t need to see her.

I had something stronger.

The mate bond.

It was always there, I reached for it.

My consciousness dropped inward, descending through layer after layer of my core until I found the place where her presence always lived.

I searched for the familiar frost.

For the cold, brilliant light of the Frost lineage.

For Natalie.

For Nyx.

For anything.

Nothing answered.

My eyes snapped open.

No.

I forced myself deeper.

The bond couldn’t be gone.

It couldn’t.

Alpha energy surged violently through my system as I pushed harder, shoving past every natural limit as I searched desperately for even the faintest trace of her existence.

A spark.

A whisper.

An echo.

Anything.

There was nothing.

Only darkness.

An endless, terrifying void.

The suppression gas.

They had buried her completely.

Every signature.

Gone.

The bond wasn’t severed.

That would have been easier.

This was worse.

It was numb.

Dead silent.

As if someone had taken the wire connecting us and wrapped it in layers of darkness thick enough to smother every signal trying to pass through.

For the first time in years, I couldn’t feel her.

Not even a little.

A sharp pain slammed into my chest.

My heartbeat became violent.

Unsteady.

Wrong.

Panic surged through me with enough force to steal the air from my lungs.

My hands shook inside the linen wraps.

Actually shook.

I stared at the empty road disappearing through the forest and felt something I hadn’t experienced since I was a child abandoned to the northern wilderness.

Fear.

Raw.

Unfiltered.

Paralyzing.

LBecause for the first time since I found her, I was blind.

Completely blind.

“Alpha!”

The shout shattered the silence.

A moment later, Flynn burst through the trees, his rifle hanging low at his side.

Mud stained his combat gear, and streaks of smoke darkened his face.

“The frontline is clear,” Flynn reported, breathing hard as he approached. “The remaining mercenary signatures have been eliminated. Jensen escaped into the lower valley routes on foot, but the strike cell used signal scramblers to clear our radar coverage before we could lock the high–ground perimeter.”

His words barely registered.

I turned toward him slowly.

The world felt distant.

Muted.

As if I were hearing everything through water.

Because that emptiness inside my chest kept growing.

Every second that passed without Natalie made it worse.

Raze was losing his mind inside me.

The wolf paced frantically against my ribs, clawing at the void where Nyx’s presence should have been. The absence was driving him into a frenzy.

Driving both of us into a frenzy.

Flynn’s expression shifted the moment he got close enough to see my face.

The panic.

The desperation.

The complete lack of control.

I realized then that he had probably never seen me like this before.

No one had.

“Baron…”

I swallowed.

The motion felt painful.

As though something had lodged itself in my throat.

“She’s gone, Flynn.”

The words came out rough.

Broken.

My voice cracked under their weight.

Around us, the wind shifted violently.

Flynn froze.

Because he understood exactly what those words meant.

Not that Natalie was dead.

I couldn’t find her.

“I can’t feel her.”

My gaze drifted back toward the road where the transport had disappe:

Toward the place where the last trace of her had vanished.

“My bond with her…”

The sentence fractured.

For a moment, I couldn’t force the rest out.

Because saying it aloud would make it real.

Finally, I clenched my jaw and looked at Flynn.

“It’s gone.”

The words fell into the silence like a death sentence.

“I can’t feel her at all.”
