The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia) novel Chapter 604

Harry's POV:

The explosion at the gasoline station was so loud that all the vampires in the neighborhood came out. They were wandering around the suburb to find us.

Fortunately, they were all low-level vampires, so it was challenging for them to smell the scent of creatures of different clans.

Sylvia and I were waiting for Joanna in the dark, holding our breath. We dared not make a sound or move around.

Although Sylvia looked calm, the sweat on her forehead betrayed her.

I knew she was as anxious as I was. Fifteen minutes had passed, but Joanna was nowhere to be seen.

However, I could no longer remain calm. My stomach clenched with anticipation. I was getting worried about Joanna. 'Is she in danger?'

"There is no point waiting here. We have to find a way to look for her," I said in a low voice.

"Let's wait for another five minutes. If she doesn't show up by then, we'll go and look for her." Sylvia turned to look at me. Her firm gaze seemed to calm me.

I took a deep breath and comforted myself that everything would be fine. Even in superhero movies, villains never died easily; so Joanna would definitely be safe and sound.

Besides, she was a strong woman who could take down two powerful men like me during training. Moreover, Joanna was a professional assassin. She had to risk her life to accomplish every mission. Such a she-wolf could survive even in desperate circumstances.

I immediately prayed to Moon Goddess that I would remain single for twenty years if she kept Joanna safe.

Five minutes passed in a blur. Sylvia and I couldn't wait any longer, so we decided to go back and look for Joanna.

"We can't go via the gasoline station. Let's take a detour to see if we can return to the cave," Sylvia said with a frown.

"I just noticed a bridge near the gas station that had access back to the city. We can go there and have a look," I suggested.
