She Can't Be Your Mate novel Chapter 29

"Devina?" I heard a familiar voice call. I pulled my head away from the women who looked at me with bright soft eyes.

"Go, my dear. He's in pain." I nodded and turned around, seeing Zane across the field.

"Devina!" He yelled and ran towards me. I looked back behind me but the woman wasn't there. "Where are you?" He frantically asked as soon as he reached me.

"How are you here? Am I dreaming?" I asked but Zane just pulled me into his arms.

"It's a spell. I'm in your dreams. Now tell me, where are you? Are you okay?" I leaned away from him and took a step backward.

"I'm fine. And I'm safe." I assured him.

"Please, Devina just let me come get you. Let me take you home." He begged but I just shook my head.

"Something changed Zane. I need to figure out what." He ran his fingers through his hair and looked up at me.

"Please Devina. I can't sleep. I can't eat. The only thing I can do is look for you. And I have no idea where you are. I've looked everywhere in Olympia. You're not here." I shook my head.

"I'm not in Olympia. But Zane, when I'm ready I'll come back, okay?" He shook his head and grabbed my arm.

"Devina I'm begging you, please just come home. Come back to me." A tear escaped my eye as his voice cracked, holding too much emotion. "Please. You're my Sunshine. My world is dark without you." My heart yearned to be in his arms, to make him feel better.

"I'm sorry Zane." I took a step forward so that our faces were only inches apart. "I'm so sorry." And with that, I crashed my lips onto his. He replied instantly, grabbing the back of my head with one hand and my cheek with the other, keeping me close to him. He kissed me back with so much passion and desire. "Zane." I moaned as he licked my bottom lip, asking for permission to enter. I let him in and our tongues danced together.

"You can do it in a few days when I get back, then you won't have to worry about it anymore. I'll be out of your hair." I assured him and took a few steps back.

"No Devina I-" I closed my eyes, took a deep breath and with all my strength, I willed him to disappear and for myself to wake up. "No! Damnit!" I heard him yell but it was too late, I was back in the cave. Wide awake.

~Zane's POV~

Either she started to fade or I did, I'm not sure but before I knew it, she was gone.

"Devina!" I screamed. "No. Damnit!" I jolted awake and pushed back the witch who helped me. "She's not in Olympia. She's with some guy named Ethan." I paced the room trying to think of something else, anything else that could help us find her. "I smelled another wolf on her. Rouge. She's not likely in a city." I said, more to myself than anyone else. "Can you do a locator spell?" I asked Jamie who nodded, her hair moving with the sudden movement. I focused a little too much on how similar Jamie's blonde hair was to Devina's. Although, Devina never liked trying to tame her hair. She didn't want to put so much effort into something so temporary.

"I'll need a piece of hair and something that was very close to her. Something's she's touched." I rushed back to our house and into her room. In her bathroom, I grabbed her brush and started looking around her room for something that was close to her.
